[pootsy]

Hey I love all those bands too; however, I think that he has alot of hate built up in him from that song list, don't ya think?? I mean he did use to play is a Christian rock band LOL!

i replied twice sorry

Exactly pootsy. When I was in training I would listen to the most hateful music I could. It always got me boiling ready to go. It made me want to do more be more and become more and it had that affect on me it no longer does. Im no longer an angry hateful person who wants to take on the world. HIs selection of songs was an eye opener AFTER the fact. Your knowledge of what he had alledgedly done at Youthville only made the choice of his music and the choice he made to take Erins life much more clearer. It doesnt mean everything you listen to and everything you do will dictte the outcome of your life but its shows a pattern of either pain, anger or depression and his selection said it all. We just never see it til they act on it. I did act on my selections of songs when I was fueling my anger towards the world. Slipknots "Surfacing" made me feel indestructible and so did Pantera "Mouth of War" and "5minutes alone" I did act on it and had someone recognized it I maybe wouldnt have acted out the way I acted out. we just never know until it is to late. ALways to late!

It's not about what you listen too. It is about what you feel so strongly about that you would put it in bold statement as a headline for your page.

Read what he feels proud and strong about. Reminds me of movie Wyatt Earp. "Tell em I'm coming and hell's coming with me"

Ya I seen that Zeb...my thoughts exactly

Well if reread his quote it is actually Youngs Guns "Reap the whirlwind, Murphy" but he left out Murphy and then he messed up the Tombstone qoute of of "You called down the thunder now you got it" the rest of the quote is "You see this badge it says UNited States Marshall, I see a man carrying a red sash I kill him HEAR ME? You tell them im coming and Hells coming with me! So run you kur RUN! You tell them im coming and hells coming with me"

I know it is a long quote but they are both about seeking revenge against the ones who have wronged them. Tombstone is the greatest western ever made. But you can see the revenge idea in the qoutes.

Im glad this was brought up because at first I laughed because he ran the quotes together. Now I can may6be see the reasoning behind the quotes.

From today's HutchNews:

Tahah, who had been with the police department for three years, came under suspicion immediately after Jones' death because he was her ex-boyfriend, Dodge City Police Chief John Ball said. He was suspended with pay, which is city policy any time an officer is investigated for a felony.


Ball said as soon as investigators determined a police officer might have been involved, the Kansas Bureau of Investigation was called to investigate.


Dodge City human resources director Cherise Tieben said the city began a separate investigation into separate violations of departmental policy at the same time.

I wonder if some evidence surfaced during the PD's initial investigation that enlightened the PD about violations of "departmental policy" or if the PD simply decided to cover their asses about some known violations?

~~Don't get your hopes up, lurker~~

Neither Tieben nor Ball would comment on the nature of the violations because they are personnel matters and can be closed to the public.

I don't think any PD does business based on "what will the community think" - they do business based on the policies and proceedures already in place.

From what was in the Globe today, it sounds like Colorado will proceed with their charges first, and then Kansas will get him back. Sauer said (and I agree with him) that if he's convicted in Colorado that will be more on his criminal history so when he comes to Kansas to face charges he would get a stiffer sentence.

Also gives them lots of time to piece the puzzle together!
