that wasnt right and he needed his butt kicked... that said over the last 25 years or so of military and civilian active drinking and party participation the only rules we followed was anything was allowed as long as it did not cause any damage to anyones property and caused no harm to person or persons, known or unknown and could be easily reversed or cleaned up.

Hello Drunky,

Long time no type.

Jeez, I would have thought that would have been self-evident.

Hence my preceding comment about "good thing we are no longer..." etc.

I am however, trying very hard to raise my daughter with a sound Christian worldview, a good apologetical grid that will allow her to filter and apropriately respond to garbage, and, god willing, enough common sense not to do what the girl in the video did.

I'm also frankly warning her about what her father got up to in his former life as a drunken jerk and how having a ton of life experiences you now regret and would rather not be walking around with is not the way to go and that she should strive to live a life that shines like a light in the midst of darkness and my wife and I are praying to that end.

I wish I could say that the culture was 100% behind that effort, but unfortunately the culture, and particularly the "Jacka*s/Bratz/Gangsta/Spring Break" youth culture tends to push as hard as possible in the opposite direction with the drunken head-shaving party being just one symptom. It

Seems to me that when you mix together Nihilism, Hedonism, Selfishness, and "b stoopid or b outcast", you have a deadly cocktail, but our kids are drinking it to the dregs. Does it surprise anyone that when you create millions of disincentives for acting in a responsible manner that you eventually produce a irresponsible generation?

I think this video needs some context (or I'm deaf).

Maybe she deserved it? Who's to say she's not a psycho, rampaging hose-beast that kicks dogs and small children while stuffing kittens in a woodchipper?

Saying charges should be files is pretty sad, lawyers are not the fix for problems like this.

She made the mistake of getting drunk around people she couldn't trust. Maybe she learned something from it.

It was just hair.

Just hair, what if her job was in retail or something where her appearance mattered? What if she was going to the bank to get a loan in a few days or she was in a wedding party in the near future? Even in combat it is wrong to cause harm to someone who is so obviously down and out.

And if she was Raped it would also be HER fault?

What if she is a bulldike and likes the cut?

No one was hurt. Bringing lawyers in would be stupid. It was kids doing stupid ****.

The best would be for her to learn something from it and move on, if she lost her job because of it, well she learned a hard lesson about getting drunk with people around you don't know or trust.

So loosing your job is not important?

P.S. People kill themselves all the time because they lost their job.

P.P.S. Guess the victim is always to blame today.

GtoRA2 · « **Reply #22 on:** April 03, 2007, 03:00:03 PM »

Sure it is, but she is a young and in school. She will live and it will teach her a lesson if your fantasy is true, or she can get a wig.

Either way all the needs to be done is learn from it and move on. Anything else is simply a ridiculous over reaction.

If it was a dude who got his head shaved NONE of you would care.

Have you ever tried to shave the head of an inmate by force? Hair means allot to some people. I can promise you that many men would kill you if you cut their hair.

you know, you're probably right. I was raised we didnt pick on girls (not that way anyway) and I have three daughters, 24, 18, and 10 and one son, 16. If it happened to him I'm pretty sure I'd tell him lesson learned, suck it up, its only hair it'll grow back. but if it happened to one of my daughters I'd want somebody's ass, no lawyers though...

Standard fatherhood type behavior to think you'd come down hard on anyone who hurt your daughters.

Hi GTO,

There is nothing even mildly right about what happened in this video from beginning to end.

1) The kids look either underage or just barely legal.
2) Getting so drunk or stoned you pass out is wrong.
3) Hanging out with people who respond to your passing out from excessive alcohol consumption by wondering how they can best take advantage of you for their own enjoyment is also wrong.
4) Shaving someone's head and covering them in Magic Marker symbols because they have passed out and can't do anything to stop you is also wrong (yes, even if its a guy)
5) Filming the event and then posting it on Youtube is also wrong.

What part of this seems right?

This is the kind of fun that often ends up with someone dead from alcohol poisoning. As adults, we are supposed to be trying to steer our kids away from stupid activities that can get them injured, molested, or killed.

I am fine with you wanting to kick some ass, lol. I just think bringing lawyers in is totaly stupid.

It was kids being kids.

Well i feel for the ones who have doughters, growing into their teens.
In an age with.

College F*ck Fest
Girls Gone Wild
J*ackAss
That Austrailian J*ackass show
Reality TV shows
American Idol type of shows

As the norm and influence to kids today it cant be easy to be an father. I always wondered how an country like USA that is so "Christian" can peddle out so much filth.

Xargos · « **Reply #29 on:** April 03, 2007, 03:42:46 PM »

I bet that kid in that video wouldn't walk into an inmate cell on deathrow with those clippers in his hands by himself.
