    Yes. The mark was the writing on her flag. A lot of people massively over-stepped it it seems.

    I’m not a particular fan of the death penalty but I can understand that under certain circumstances someone who deliberately and mercilessly takes someone else’s life like Mohammed Emwazi did would warrant execution and not be deserving of sympathy.

    To suggest that a woman being trampled to death for being in the wrong place at the wrong time is justified and joke worthy is really low but I suppose is no less than I have come to expect from you and certain other contributors to this thread who I suspect share your sentiment.

    Just been reading the knuckle draggers that entered the Capitol Building were defecating and smearing it all over the place. Now that is disgusting,

    I don't think that's what 'beingnincthe wrong place at the wrong time' generally means. It tends to apply to someone who was accidentally in a place at the wrong time and thus got caught up in something. It doesn't tend to apply to a terrorist in the middle of a crime.

    Saying she was in the wrong place at the wrong time is like saying a rapist in your bedroom just happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

    She was criminal terrorist scum who got what she deserved at the bungled hands (or feet) of her criminal cohorts

    Can’t say I’m a fan of laughing at people who have died like that. Yes they’re terrorists, but we’re not talking 9/11, London bombs, IRA are we? Or are we?

    It’s great to see the perpetrators being arrested and charged, but considering we had posts criticising signing off the execution of death row inmates it feels contradictory or hypocritical to then laugh at deaths like this. Yes they should be punished to the full extent of the law, but surely not die?

    There's a difference between wanting them to be killed by the authorities and laughing when their own stupidity and crimes get them killed in the process.

    One is punishment, the other is simply karma

    She wasn't in the wrong place at the wrong time. She was committing an act of terrorism in a government building.

    I'm not talking about the morality of the death penalty. I'm also not laughing at the fact that they died. I'm laughing at the irony of her being trampled to death by her fellow terrorists while wearing a flag saying "don't tread on me".

    We clearly have very different moral compasses.

    A bit late for you to be trying to take the moral high ground now....all the cr@p you have been posting is the stuff these people have been brainwashed with.

    Genuine question, not after an argument. But you told me my post was ‘awful and disgusting’ or words to that affect, when I just said it made me laugh that after storming the building they were behaving like tourists and taking videos (obviously that was in real time and it got remarkably worse). What’s the difference here?

    Fair question.
    For one, you posted that comment while the situation was still in progress. It was unclear at that point if any innocent people would be (or had already been) caught up in it and I felt it extremely inappropriate to react like that when we had no idea what was happening.
    For two, you were laughing at an act of terrorism. That's massive hyperbole compared to what you were actually doing I know. But at a basic level, that's what was happening.

    I'm laughing at a terrorist succumbing in an extremely ironic and karmic way.

    That’s fine. But my ‘joke’ was accompanied by ‘shocking scenes’ and ‘hope they get everyone out safe’ and it was way before we had any idea if it would lead to anything more - hindsight is great on that front.

    I still think there’s levels of terrorists and risk and it doesn’t sit right with me to laugh at deaths that shouldn’t have happened.
