Derp  ...it is/was a Shrine...a Mission...a Church... a lot of people died fighting for their freedom there...it's not just a "building"...go piss on the WTC and see what people say...this piece of trash got off easy...I'm sure he will enjoy his 1 1/2 yrs. with the homeboys...I see you are from illinois and probably don't understand the concept of freedom.

So jail is excessive but crushing his skull isn't?  As long as his judicial sentence wasn't a mandated skull crushing, and he happened to catch the back end of a drill-spec M14 while he was in the act, yeah, that's fine. I guess the important question is, where was a guard (or native Texan) to smack this guy around while he was peeing on the building? |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
It didn't take the dumbasses long to crap in this thread. The Alamo is sacred ground to Texans and those who respect that fight for independence. I am disappointed in some of the replies here that fail to respect that, but I am certainly not surprised. I don't think anyone is saying what he did is OK, only that the punishment is excessive. One of the things I think most of us here value is the US Constitution. The 8th amendment states: "Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.". I also find it hard to believe he caused 4k worth of damage. I am OK with a 4k fine, but don't claim it is "restitution". |

Same to you, I think if we were to do this face to face and not in writing in GD we would be a lot closer in our thinking. This medium leaves a lot to be desired as far as conversations go. Happy Easter  Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
I agree...I hope no state ever goes blue. However, it is disingenuous to say that "I've never done that" and then ask why Texans thump so loudly on the board or ask why we're so vocal. It's tiresome. You've never done it, but this board seems to delight in telling us how we're doing things wrong, how we're going blue and frankly it comes moreso from the blue states. Texans aren't liked because we seem to have an overt pride in our state. Mostly, we're not saying your state is worse, we're just saying we love our state. I can understand, if my state was blue, I would lose pride in my home. Also, Texans can be assholes. 
To address your orange point, we never asked anyone to accept our history. If you're not going to accept our history, then you don't really get to comment on it and why his deeds were so egregious. That's the point. Granted you've had posters calling for death, which is silly, but you can't just say "it's some building". The simile has already been provided, but if someone urinated on Lexington Green, half the board would be on here calling for the same punishments, which would also be silly. I'm going to go fire up my grill, play with my daughter in the yard and have some real beer...not Shiner Bock...I hope you have a good weekend. Same to you, I think if we were to do this face to face and not in writing in GD we would be a lot closer in our thinking. This medium leaves a lot to be desired as far as conversations go. Happy Easter I suspect you're probably right. Have a happy Easter brother. 
He is risen...and I believe he has Let's see if we can't get this thread all kinds of sideways. |

Quoted:
What folks from other states don't get is that Texas history is mandated in high school. I'd been to all four major battle sites by the time I was a senior. You can come up with the CT/VA/NY version of history if you like, but everyone here knows the truth. BTW. I had ancestors massacred at Goliad and there are entire towns here named for heroes in that war. (Both Mexican and white) Pissboy is lucky to still have two unbroken arms. Not to take away from your education, because I think that is awesome . . But they do not teach the Holocaust in Germany. And in British history, we are not the saviors of WWII. Just some food for thought . . Even as a CT'er, I got the goosebumps when I put my hand on the Alamo's walls. I'd have some choice words for the pisser, myself, and would be fighting myself to hold back some primal urges. Germany does not teach the Holocaust in order to actively hide it. Nothing to be embarrassed about down here. 
They do teach it, in great detail. My German coworker said in HS, they basically dropped all other subjects for either a semester or a year, I don't recall which he said. Germans probably are better educated about it than any other nationality. The Japanese on the other hand...not so much. Not to side track, but Germans and Austrians are reasonable and decent people. I think the fact that the Holocaust happened there tells us we should all be concerned about it recurring were we live so that nothing like it happens again. |

But everything is bigger in Texas, and Texas gets special treatment with flags, and treaties, etc., I guess them boys in Baja Oklahoma haven't got the word that they really aren't that special and neither is Texas. |

18 months, for that? Perhaps he should move to a free state upon release. Pissing on the Alamo is over the top. I'll bet he gets his ass beat multiple times over that one.

Well thats a big bag of retarded shit all around. Whoever wrote that garbage of an article should know that the building isn't 250 years old. It was completely destroyed in 1836 and then rebuildt in 1850. It's not even the real mission just a rebuilt scam of a tourist trap.
Guy was a jackass to pee on it and deserves the appropriate punishment. But to sentence him to 18 months in jail How about we do what we do for any other person convicted of urinating in public?
And $4,000 in restitution. There is no way he managed to do any monitary damage by taking a piss on the exterior of the building. $.05 of water and $3 for the 5 minutes it took a worker to get a hose and wash it off. |
