Ok, I visited this Old Town place the other day. It was a planned meeting to see what my friend's describe as a "parade of weirdos." I'll tell you one thing, it definitely requires looking beyond who hit who.
It has got to be the the strangest place I have ever seen. The mix of weirdness was out of this world. Some walked around with a death wish. Some were completely unconscious and not asked to leave. And several men were 50 or 60 years old and constantly talking (and spitting everywhere) trying to pick me up.
It made Gold Bar look kosher. Good God.
I would seriously recommend visiting this place before commenting on anyone's behavior there. I guess this would explain why there is nearly zero media coverage even after the situation went from coma victim to murder.

At least you didn't get groped. Now if that Ma character were still around you might have a different story to tell. |

That's a bit extreme. Only the most militant of feminists would think a guy who molested a woman deserves to die. |
The death penalty for people like that no, but he was an absolute nuisance, good riddance! |

Israel is superior to the rest of it's neighbors by most of the things that rational people look at. If Israel wipes out it's neighbors it will be because it has to. I'm not Jewish or Israeli, but find an area of the IDF that will have me and I will go. Try teaching in Saudi Arabia and see how well you come out liking the region surrounding Israel. Not many people make it out of there without having a very very negative opinion. |

Thats nice.
Wasnt really the point of my post. Israel was an arbitrary place marker. Change it to Chile or Tonga or France or whatever.
The thrust was about a bunch of gyopos calling for death and destruction while safely sitting 10,000km away.
But its nice to see the IDF has a willing volunteer in you, should the need arise. |

It sounds like Jeremy could be in more legal trouble now. The victim's father is pressing charges for defamation. No one wants their son to be remembered as a groper. |

I'd say that the victim's father's going to win that case with no problems. I mentioned very early in this thread that Frye's plan to paint his victim as a molester isn't a bright idea since he apparently doesn't have anything to back that up. |

| If Frye is either jailed or set free I dont see how anyone can force him to pay a settlement in a civil case. |

In Korea, libel is a crime punishable by both fines and imprisonment.

Even if he did have anything to back it up, it's irrelevant. There is no public good served by anyone beyond the police and courts knowing what this guy allegedly did. |

Interesting how even telling the truth about someone or something is punishable. I guess with that mindset, it explains why Asiana tried to sue over harm to their "reputation" when they in fact screwed up and the press simply tried to talk about it.
"Your son was a trouble-making groper who regularly assaulted women."
"True fact, but everyone must ignore that! I'm suing you for mentioning it!"
Shows how much the truth is valued in this system. |
