His demeanor takes a complete 180 when he realizes it is the real deal

End result- death. You don't think it hurts to have someone chop your fricking head off? I didn't watch the vid so I'm just assuming it was like the Berg video where it took several blows

That makes sense. I am pretty emotionally involved in this stuff.

Everyone should be. I spent a year in iraq , boots on the ground. These people detest us. They detest that we are not Muslim.


I guess this is what I'm trying to get at... emotionally involved.

Too many people here think they are safe from Muslim savagery. I bet people in Sweden used to think that way too. With the way things are progressing it's only a matter of time...

You missed the part where Darth said if he were in the same situation he would tell his captors to go frick themselves?


1) Not sure what that has to do with Rant posters.

2) Who's to say a serviceman wouldn't do that?

The irrational hard on for Darth on this board is comical.

You think the asked him nicely to read it and he obliged? They prolly threatened to skin him alive or cut his balls off if he didn't read it


Exactly

I'd rather be beheaded or shot in the head than tortured

These savages will stop at nothing... I'd rather die somewhat quickly than be burned alive or hung by my ballsack

Right, but from what I've read, don't they do these dry runs pretty often? Get you set up in front of the camera, have you read the anti-America letter and then not actually kill you. If you think they're just doing another one of those, why put the nail in your own coffin?


Oh well I've only seen the videos... wasn't aware that they did dry runs. My line of thinking has been once you get in front of the camera that's it.

So using that line of thinking I'd try to ruin their video... maybe if you spoke out in defiance of Islam they would have to scrap the video. You die either way but maybe this way you save your family the grief of having a video record of you death?

But who knows... until you're the one on your knees looking at the blade, you never know how you'll react. The survival instinct is a powerful thing.

Why would you add to your family's grief by reading that?
We have no idea what they promised him or threatened him with. They might have simply broke him and he was willing to say anything to finally die. To judge him is disrespectful and to say you would do otherwise is ignorant.

Didn't he have a history of anti-American reporting?



I would definitely read it if they threatened the rest of my family.

I don't think you understand hypocrisy.

Guy says "I'd tell them all to frick off"

Me "You have no idea what you'd do"


Hypocrisy? Where?


Oh, when I said that any high functioning adult member of the victim's family will eventually come to see that the words weren't his and that the death will be the hardest part, not some fake letter?

Knowing everything we know about these terrorist groups, if the letter is the thing that offends you, then you're probably kind of stupid. That's the fact of the matter. Sorry if it makes you and your bikerbuddy upset.

Apologies, I mistook Rant posters for OT posters.

I have no preconceived hate for Darth. Don't care about him either way. But when you say with 100% confidence that I would do _____ in the same situation, that's ignorant. He might just do it, but to rule out the possibility of being broken is ignorant.

ETA: I'm done posting in this thread. Not talking about you, but I've learned more about certain posters in this thread than any other thread.

This is not where I called you a hypocrite.
