GUILTY- GUILTY- MOTHAFUKIN GUILTY
Till mankind can think rationally, absolutely, without outside factors affecting those decisions: We're all fucked. Except for is guy getting three years, who actually got royally reprieved.
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
Quote:Some people deserve hell.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

As soon as someone quotes forum cliches like needing reading comprehension and spews out a bunch of ad hominems, I tend to ignore the debate as I assume they don't actually want any.

Don't they have some nonsense where you can't be tried again for the same crime? I forget... can sentences be modified post-trial?
Whole thing's nonsense anyway, but I am curious. Just not curious enough to googleh, been doing that all day and I am les tired.

One can appeal and recieve a harsher sentence.

Apologies for interrupting your simplistic mandated sentencing circlejerk in favor of making judges responsible for their actions.

He probably won't even spend out the full term of his sentence in prison, unfortunately..
Good question Lilly, why didn't anyone else notice??
Care to enlighten this bunny?

Double jeopardy is the concept. You cannot be tried for a crime if you were tried once and a verdict was reached.
Once a sentence is imposed by a judge, I believe that the only way it can be changed is via options such as sentence reductions for good behavior. I don't think they can be increased, though.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

I have never used tanning oil but I would expect a product that I was applying to my body was NOT flammable. I did a quick search for tanning oil and found no warnings about product being flammable.
I think manslaughter was the correct call.
I also think the company and regulators should change the tanning products to non flammable.
