They were up to no good, it sounds like.
Would it not be ironic, to be eaten by the Animal you tease, attack and belittle, just to see what it does and then it gets out after all.
Maybe they were and are cowards and maybe Carlos was not.
Accounts from whom? If the brothers aren't talking, then who is? And what else did that person or persons witness?
It’s hard to be certain about the names, but is it possible they weren’t going to risk their lives for an infidel?
They might ALL be alive...IF they had been allowed to carry guns. But not in Cali - esp. not in San Fran.
Idiots.
Maybe this parable will help him understand:
Two friends were strolling down a jungle trail when suddenly they looked up and saw a tiger on the trail coming at them in full attack. One of the men bent over to tightly lace his shoes and the other asked him, “Why are you doing that? Don’t you know you can’t outrun a tiger?” With a knowing smile, his friend replied, “I don’t have to outrun the tiger; all I have to do is outrun you.”
Survivors guilt is very common.
They have nothing to be ashamed of. A 165 pound human is no match for a 400 pound tiger.
First of all, I’m not convinced that if I saw a 350-pound tiger eating someone, I wouldn’t run like hell, too. Sometimes, there is really no sense in intervening. And secondly, I’m not at all convinced that Carlos sacrificed his life for his friends. Sorry, but this whole story stinks. And since minorities are involved in a PC state, I doubt we’ll ever know the full truth.
Sounds to me like they don’t want to ruin any chances of their juicy lawsuit by revealing that they were teasing, taunting and throwing things at the tiger after hours.
Maybe they threw Carlos to the tiger?
They refused to even give the name of Carlos or their own - refused to cooperate with the police. This, along with other info implies they were guilty of a criminal act.
I have no sympathy for the brothers.
Here’s a random thought. Let’s tie Khalbir Dhawali to a tree and coat his body in Catnip! Then let Kitty loose!
Here’s Carlos’ original MySpace page. It’s been replaced by a “Memorial” version.

I viewed many of his “friends” - Gangstaz all
My first inclination when I see a charging tiger is to run.
Having an Indian name means they’re from India? I must be from ireland, then, and am a moron to know it, according to the Brightest around here! More likely, their parents emigrated from India, or from the Indian diaspora somewhere on the planet, in Asia, Africa or Europe. There are plenty of such Indians in Sillicon Valley. The punks are probably totally Americanized in the worst possible way. Like their dead pal Carlos.
Paul Dhaliwal also has three other cases in Santa Clara County: an arrest for reckless driving and evading a police officer and being a minor in possession of alcohol and public intoxication, according to court documents.

In another development, Sousa’s father alleged Paul Dhaliwal lied about his son’s whereabouts that day. Sousa’s family was worried when he failed to turn up Christmas morning to open presents and began calling friends to find out where he was.
Sousa Sr. had called Paul Dhaliwal about 3 or 4 p.m. Christmas Day, an hour or two before the tiger attacks. He wanted his son home to celebrate Christmas dinner with his mother.
But Paul Dhaliwal reportedly told Sousa Sr. that he had not seen his son for days.
“We’re just so upset about that,” said the victim’s cousin, Christina Sousa-Habenicht, 26. “We feel we could have prevented something. We just have this huge ‘What if?’ — what if we could have talked to him. Instead his friend lied. What kind of friend is that?”
Ever since the family found Wednesday that Sousa was killed in the attack, they have been trying to reach the Dhaliwals’ parents. They have left messages, but the family has not returned their calls. Sousa considered Paul Dhaliwal one of his best friends.
“We have a lot of questions,” the teenager’s mother, Marilza Sousa, said Thursday. “We want to know how it happened, and only the two boys can tell us.”

What I don’t understand, though, is if the tiger used the one boy’s leg as a kind of rope ladder to climb out, how the heck did the kid keep from falling in with a 350 lb cat hanging from his leg?
I’d have to see pics of the enclosure to fully grasp it. But I’m wondering if the dead kid was an idiot that went into the cat enclosure on a dare. THen he got hurt. The two buddies outside the cage begin to throw rocks and sticks to distract the tiger long enough for the hurt boy to get hauled out of the pen by his buddies. The tiger becomes so enraged when his prey is stolen from him that he leaps like he’s never leaped before and makes it up and over the wall in hot pursuit of his prey. Outside the tiger pen, the two boys put up a very short and very feeble resistance to keep the tiger off their hurt buddy. But the tiger isn't having any of it. IT's his prey and he's keeping it. A couple of very small "warning" nips and swipes at the two boys and they run for their lives.
Here ya go, that’s my theory.
The fact that two of the boys are of ethnicities that have histories with wild tigers(india), and the third is the dead one that does not, makes this even more suspicious. I can imagine an argument about just how dangerous a tiger really is and the non indian kid decides he can prove the two indian boys he's not afraid of no silly cat. Then the trip to the zoo is hatched and the stupid stunt that got him killed.
