Depressed mother cooked baby on stove

[SIGbastard]

Last year around my area a little girl who didn't know how to bathe herself tried to give her little brother a bath and boiled him to death.

That's clearly an accident. It has similarities but it is different on many levels.

Why can't you guys just accept I understand what a mental illness is it just doesn't really matter to me in all circumstances. I have different views. I don't make the rules obviously so it's really no matter anyways. I think the bitch should burn. There's really nothing you can do to change my mind. I have a full understanding mental illness. I have alot of views that would outright offend alot of people. I just don't care. I keep my views to myself unless there is some discussion I have strong feelings to express myself on. I am not ignorant. I have a BS in Zoology Biomedical Sciences. I graduated with honors. I have taken ethics classes. I am about to start Dental School and out of over 600 applicants there are only 40-something openings. I just don't "conform" because I'm not in the majority. Trust me I will stick out like a sore thumb at school. I am a total gun nut with about 5000 rds of ammo on hand. I am about to build an AR15 from parts for the first time. I have a concealed carry permit and have a pistol on everywhere but campus and government property. I am conservative and open about it with my professors.

It was funny at my interview. They asked me what my hobbies were. I said shooting and video games. They asked if I hunted. I said no. They asked what types of guns I liked to shoot. I said mostly AR15's and other assault weapons and such. They had a puzzled look on their faces. It didn't matter though I was a great candidate with stellar DAT scores and a great GPA.

I think we might have found a friend for Short Recoil

only joking SR

Hold on a sec.

Sig, you said earlier that you think that when people do certain things they lose the right to life... yeh?
Well then you said you don't care if the woman knew what she was doing or not...
Well if we assume that the woman is suffering from mental illness, most probably an extreme case of schitsophrenia, and had no idea of what she was doing, or at least not from our normal, sane frames of reference - which is what all the evidence seems to point to, we can assume she was NOT responsible for her actions, but as someone else mentioned earlier, the mental illness was.

So; Mental illness + Woman = Loss of responsibility
Then;
Young girl bathing her brother and killing him = Lack of responsibility.

Why then, shouldn't the little girl be executed? Or at least punished.

Both characters, one through age, one through mentall illness, did not understand the meaning of their actions, so why should one "bitch burn" and another be let off?

You can try to explain and talk in circles but we both no deep down there is a difference between the incidents. I'm sick of this thread. I'm not going to reply anymore which I'm sure makes alot of you guys happy. Moving on now.....
