I'm trying not to judge, but this guy seemed a slimeball.

What I can't work out is why his company is still up and running like an ugly scamming headless chicken. I'm not linking to it, that would be defacing the forum.
My advice, forget about it and eat healthy. Wink

waiting for the message "$52 million needs to get it out of the country, please help for 35% " or something like it Laughing

It just proves that all colors/nations/believes can scam, but it just doesn't pay as well in the end.

I think I need another lad to feel good again. Evil or Very Mad

What's in surplus today?

Is it wrong that I smiled when I saw the word suicide?

Especially since I'm studying to be a clinical therapist?

I should re-read that Hippocratic oath.

^^ Maybe the homeless man just wanted a "home" so he turned himself in.

Roy should go free, never should have been sentenced.

Actually, I don't even have Showtime. So, now I'm even more scared. Do I remind you of Dexter?

Im not so sure about go free, this is probably not his 1st offense... I just think its a double standard though. If your a white collar criminal with high powered friends its easier to get away with anything. He stole billions and was probably very polite as he was scamming people of thier pension.
or Dick Cheney... You cant name any other person in the world who can shoot a lawyer in the face and have the lawyer apologize for getting in the way of the gun...LOL

Louisiana is unique among the 50 U.S. states in having a legal system partially based on French and Spanish codes and ultimately Roman law, as opposed to English common law and many of their legal codes follow Napoleonic law.

So we would have to know their law in relation to the case with Roy. Roy did indicate his mama did not raise him that way and he that he was hungry and needed a place to stay, so he stole.

She must have taught him "Thou Shalt Not Steal"

It was ruled an accidental shooting and was the result of careless gun carrying.

Dexter is a serial killer who kills serial killers who get away, and he works as a blood spatter expert for miami homocide. His adoptive father was a miami detective who taught him how to "not get caught" and his sister is a homocide detective. He is always about to get caught but always seems to be 1 step ahead. It is a good drama he is a very likeable guy... i cant explain it ... its something you have to see... if you googled dexter you would see that he has a large following... and most of tht following would say "yeah i would let him babysit my child". LOL

I'm aware of the show's premise, as well as it's popularity. I was wondering if my comment lead me to being compared to a fictional serial killer? Because that would not bode well for me... or my career choice.

Oh, no. I wasn't offended. I didn't mean to give that impression. I just starting thinking about the serial killer thing after I mentioned becoming a psycho-therapist and that took me to a weird Hannibal Lector like place... nevermind. Back to baiting.
