South Africa's Pistorius arrested after girlfriend shot dead

That is quite a stretch for me.

Pretty sure we would still be "blaming" Pistorius.

Or perhaps more accurately not blaming. As an example if a guy is cutting down trees, and as he cuts a tree it falls and crushes another worker I don't think anyone is really considered "at fault". It's just bad shit that happened.

There is an OTL on espn right now about Oscar.

Hey! Somebody should do the 'no leg to stand on' joke again.

Never agreed with the decision to allow man-machine combo Pistorious to compete against normal athletes. Although the decision had tremendous appeal for its encouragement and recognition of every disabled athlete who ever pushed his / her limits, it also set an incredibly dangerous precedent of allowing future man-machine combos, of yet to be determined capabilities, to go up against normal athletes without such mechanical advantages. It also created the specter that normal athletes, who compete in extremely tight packs at this level of competition, might be sliced in half by P's scimitar-like blades should they get into a tumble, a very real possibility. Serious response only.

"serious response only"

Do you know where you are?

How would this have been avoided?

Do you think his legs will give him an unfair advantage in prison?

Has this happened to single-leg amputees in Palaympic competion? Serious question.

T.Rex, I would like to start a fund to send you to South Africa as part of a Reality TV show and see how long you last without a gun. This story is still devoloping but saying 'nobody should have a gun' would not go over well with the criminal element in SA.

Are you trying to say that most people in SA are alive because they at one point had a gun to defend themselfs with?

*Paralympic

*competition

Forget it.

They cuffed him but didn't bother with the leg irons.

I can't believe how quickly the arguments have gone from his leg rights to his rights for arms.

I am astonished that no mention of possible roid rage has yet come up given that this is a letsrun thread about an elite athlete being involved in a violent murder.

???

Absolutely not blaming the black race. Yes, armed robbery is a big-time threat in SA, but it was Oscar's choice to own the guns and Oscar's choice to pull the trigger.

Wow. Letsrun truly knows no bounds when it comes to sensitivity. A woman with a promising future DIED today and a sensational track star is ruined. Regardless of motive, it's completely tragic for all involved. I just hope Oscar, his GF's family, and the track community can stand up, brush this off, and get back to focusing on what really matters. Unfortunately, there's no escape for Oscar. He'll be footing the bill for this one for the rest of his life.

All you people saying Oscar is lying about what happened are sick. No one knows what happened! I've met Oscar personally, and I can tell you the man doesn't have a single fib(ula) in his body!

"He'll be footing the bill for this one."

Nice.

The thought crossed my mind when I first heard about this.

I've got no problem with joking about this but I've yet to see anything approaching clever or funny on this thread. I can't believe how easily amused you people are.
