Also, the first part show capitalism at its best by showing stupid commercials.
The video comes right after, the commercial is quick so dont press the cancel button.
And here's a text.:2thumbsup:
Makes you wonder why he wanted the "easy" way out. If it was the easy way, then his stay in Guantanamo can't have been all that easy, can it? Same for the other suiciders mentioned in the article.
And then they say they'll treat his body with respect etc, if they kind of made his stay very hard, that's quite a nice thing to treat him with respect after he died.:dizzy2:
Husar, don't make the conservatives here question gitmo, that might make their heads explode...
We all know that the worst thing about it is that the guests(formerly called prisoners) sometimes get a headache from doing everything they want.
Do you people even look into these things before posting them?
I thought they were all just poor civilians in the wrong place at the wrong time? Theres nothing in any of this that indicates he was mistreated.Quote:
Khadr was 15 when he was captured in a firefight with U.S. troops in Afghanistan during which he allegedly killed a U.S. Army special forces soldier with a grenade.
At least he didn't go with a bang.

In the prison system I'm familiar with, New York State, inmate suicides occur several times more frequently within the group of "violent inmates" as opposed to those serving for non-violent offenses. Local and county jail suicide rates are generally higher than the State prison rate, most certainly due to officer training and officer to inmate staffing ratio, and counseling programs available to inmates are much better in the State system.
Bottom line; lessening inmate suicides requires highly trained and motivated staff to listen to and observe inmate behavior and be knowledgeable of the warning signs of imminent suicidal behavior. However, a person determined to commit suicide will likely succeed.
Actually, no. I already spend about 2 hours every morning reading this forum, so I have to save time somewhere.:sweatdrop:Quote:

Some of them probably are, but since I didn't read the whole text, I deleted my comment about that before posting. Then again, driving a criminal into suicide is not very nice either.Quote:
