Maybe Obama could buy it and use it to throw his friends under.
“Hypocrite scum.”
Too much caffeine?
Your posting history is revealing. You like to fight don’t you!
“The review board responsible for Li’s fate ruled this week that the Chinese immigrant will remain institutionalized for at least another year. “
In China Li would already have been executed. It’s clear that China has a better grasp on reality than the Canadians.
What did they expect them to do with the bus? Insurance Claim? However, I certainly don't want to ride on it.
Ktulu is right. The comments on this story are way out of line.
Easy solution: The family can buy the bus from Greyhound at a fair market price, and then decommission it themselves.
The family should make a cash offer to Greyhound for the bus.
Otherwise, tough luck.
Greyhound wasn’t at fault.
The bus wasn’t at fault.
We don’t demolish buildings where murders occur.
We don’t tear up streets and intersections that were the sites of fatal accidents.
I think some of the sarcasm is due to the strange object of the family’s anger. Why direct your anger at an inanimate object? Why not be outraged that this detestable murderer is getting away with it?
But joking about the young man’s horrific death, or anyone’s death, is out of line. Murder is never funny.
those damned buses have been taking lessons from those EVIL SUV’s!
> Unbelievable!
Well, if “not guilty by reason of insanity” is a valid verdict, it raises the question “what happens when the accused is no longer insane?” Mental illnesses don’t always last forever.
There will come a day when Li is let out, probably, when he’s no longer deemed a threat. It’s tough to swallow, but it’s a fair call.
> Ktulu is right. The comments on this story are way out of line.
Yup. Maybe decommissioning the bus isn’t the thing to do, but laughing about a gruesome homicide isn’t right.
> Unfortunately, that appears to be the trend here and elsewhere.
Indeed it does. Here in New Zealand there was a famous mass murder, known as the “Bain Family Murders”, for which David Bain was sent to gaol.
The house in which the family was murdered was burned down.
Now, after over a decade, David Bain has been successful in having his conviction thrown out and a new trial — it is ongoing even as we speak, with the Defense summing up its case.
It has been an interestng re-trial because the murder venue no longer exists. By protraction, neither does any additional evidence that may have been gleaned from the crimescene — DNA or otherwise.
So yes, these things do happen elsewhere.
Close whole province.
If they close that, they really should close the ocean, too.
Just goes to show, victims’ families can be idiots.
All of them? How many?
They have erected a memorial at company headquarters.
