The third one, right?
Why do parents let their children watch a hanging on TV?
I just wonder with things like this, when the lawsuits will begin?
This happened in Texas? This is all Bush's fault.
Or maybe not. Texas use hanging in the death sentence?
I wonder how many went unreported by the media before Saddam's hanging?
They show it for ratings, which equal advertising dollars, Gustavo. Why did you let your nephew watch it?
3 kids hang themselves since the execution. What is the fascination with hanging? Is it the simplicity of the method and the common availability of a length of rope? Fasination that something as simple as cord or line can kill you?
If they had shot Sadaam, or dropped him into a wood chipper, would kids be looking to shoot themselves, or jump into a chipper?
People don't kill people!!! Network newscasts kill people!
Ban TVs and rope!!!
.....and TV and rope trading shows.....
...and shows on TV about rope.....
This is an epidemic! We've got to ban rope! For the children! /end liberal knee-jerk response
Moon Moon: Sergio! I thought you was hung?
Sergio: I am hung!
How many kids have done this after watching a western?
In the movie "the quick and the dead" they show a guy being hanged, although in the end his daughter shoots him dead before he is actually hung.
I don't remember THAT movie causing people to run out and hang themselves.
But I think there is a greater impact when you understand you are watching reality. I won't even watch the hanging myself, there's no way I'd let my 10-year-old watch it, or even my 13-year-old.
Funny thing is, kids are seeing all sorts of stuff on the internet and TV, and acting out, and mostly everybody says we shouldn't worry, it doesn't really effect them, but it does, and we should.
Media never blamed any jumpers on those who saw the people "jumping" from the WTC on 9-11.
Houston PING
evolution in action. A clean cull to thin the herd.
Sad story.
