If you like you can repost it I am sure and if not then what I said for those that didnt see it was that Tower shouldnt be saying that he was mentally challenged or that he deserved what he got. So what if he went after some guys for stealing his ATV (I would do the same). And that he was aquitted of a DUI (big F'ing deal). Does this make him a bad person??? I have friends who have done worse things in life. He did not deserve what happened to him in this case.

Damn how quickly folks get flamed for being upset over something like this happening close to home. You are in Colorado not 5 miles from Redskins park like me. I also have lived in this area for 35 years so the Skins mean something to me. Sad to say but the everyday Joe that this may happen to I do not have a connection with.

Hope this clears up my deleted post which was deleted solely to help deter any further arguments

Hold on there, Let's get our facts straight. First off, I am sorry for what happened to him. I find it sad. Nowhere did I state or imply that he deserved what happened to him. I was simply pointing out that this guy had some serious issues before this incident. Nor did I say that he was mentally challenged. What I said was "Brain damage isn't all it's cracked up to be. Trust me." I have some experience in this area having suffered a stroke (which technically IS brain damage). I was also suggesting that He had serious difficulties before any of this happened to him.

Also, Badace, I disagree with you totally. I don't know what you are pretending is Science, but it all currently shows that personalities are virtually completely a product of environment rather than genetics. I am sure that you have some redeeming qualities, but your racism is, frankly, despicable and obscene.
