Take a Bite Out of Crime

That's a special relationship where you can be that open and casual with your girl about your schedule for committing crimes.

And when you got your six pieces, you gotta get rid of them, because it's no good leaving it in the deep freeze for your mum to discover, now is it? Then I hear the best thing to do is feed them to pigs. You got to starve the pigs for a few days, then the sight of a chopped-up body will look like curry to a pisshead. You gotta shave the heads of your victims, and pull the teeth out for the sake of the piggies' digestion. You could do this afterwards, of course, but you don't want to go sievin' through pig shit, now do you? They will go through bone like butter. You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, "as greedy as a pig".
Trying to understand why the alligator was euthanized...
That gator is a hero.The process of Natural selection is a beautiful thing.
I love how they said the gator 'behaved aggressively towards divers' like that's something that's news worthy or abnormal.
So what, another criminal off the streets for GOOD.
Sorry I had to chime in again... I've been laughing about the part where this guy is calling/texting his gf all nonchalant that he was going to rob houses.
"Hey Hun, can we plan dinner for 8? Me and ____ are gonna go rob some houses first"
Who does that?

It was a young kid who was stealing. Even Jameis took crab legs and free coke, and stealing is stealing. Most of yall were arguing that he shouldn't be suspended a game and now we are making jokes that a young kid got eaten alive by a real alligator... nothing funny about it. I can't imagine many more terrible ways to die and I'm sure the same people are crying "shame on the Heisman committee!!!"
Breaking into people's home versus getting a hook up on crab legs not sure that's the same ... Shame the young man was eaten by a gator but if he was tar trying to hide he would still be alive today just saying or robbing your house ?
I am, home invasion is a huge no no for me. Had he broke into my house I would have saved the gator the trouble.
Me too. Gator was in a lake not wandering the streets
Was deemed aggressive and posed future threats. Im guessing they are trying to prevent this happening to a pet or child in the future
Who is a worse person - someone who breaks into a house or someone who laughs that a young person's life was horrifically taken?
This wasn't karma. He didn't kill someone and then have his life taken. He robbed someone. Don't get me wrong, I'm not condoning being a theif, I think that's pretty low life stuff, but getting eaten by an alligator is not equal justice.
And I think it's despicable to find amusement in it.

The person who committed the crime is definitely worse just so I can clear that up for you. Oh and I didn't find amusement in his death, just his phone calls home about robbing houses so casually.
I think if this wasn't an Internet board and you asked most people you'd find that people aren't finding amusement in his death, but they certainly don't hand out sympathy for something that was in the control of the person from the get go. Everyone is responsible for their actions, or at least they should be.
I didn't say EastCoast Nole, you're a bad person. I didn't call anyone out specifically, but if you feel like I was talking to you (the general you), I probably was.
I disagree that breaking into homes makes a person worse than someone who laughs and enjoys the death of a kid. There's something deeper down in those people that's a bit terrifying.
And I don't buy the internet talk. Well I take that back, I think you're right. But that doesn't make it right.
Most of the Gatas I know need to be euthanized.

Just as an FYI I honestly don't think or feel you were talking about me. Like I said, I joked at the surrounding story not anything to do with his death.. If it felt like I was defending myself from that in my last post well as you know if you talk about most things on this board you have to put up your guard.
I concur that I find it terrible to see people laughing at someone's horrific death.
I also enjoy people saying they if he would have broken into their house he would be dead anyways. The more likely event is that you cower in your bedroom with the door shut with the gun pointed at the door and probably would be so frightened you wouldn't hit him if you tried but yes I know you're an expert shot at the range.
