OK, maybe the patrol officer shouldn't have fired, BUT -

What kind of idiot parents lets their kids go out and throw rocks at armed guards? At 14 you'd think he'd have more common sense than that. That's about as bright as spitting on a cop at a traffic stop.

So, you're comparing going out on a date with throwing rocks at people with guns... gee, you stumped me. I have no idea where to go with that kind of logic.

G-d willing, my kid will not throw rocks at people, and only date people after she knows a few things about their background. Due diligence is required if you want to pass Survival 101.

Oh please, "going out on a date". You act as if though he were some guy from the varsity team at her high school picking her up at her front door. She was drunk, left her friends, and ran off with guys she'd never met before.
So yeah doing that is playing with fire, just as it was when a fifteen year old boy threw a couple of rocks (some are saying it they were pebble sized, based on watching the video/other accounts) and got his head blown apart. My point is that neither Natalee or the fifteen year old deserved what happened to them. And that someone should be held accountable.

So, now that we know that Natalee Holloway was actually the victim of a serial killer, do you take any of this back?

Wow. Really late there, aren't you?

And why would I take anything I said back? I never said she deserved to be killed. Just like that boy did not deserve to be killed for throwing rocks, which according to online video were not rocks so much as pebbles.
