2 weeks ago on wednesday 12 april some 17 year old kid in Brussels was stabbed 5 times for an mp3player and died the day after of his wounds. The murderers were Polish and <18 years old. This thing is now all hyped in the national media here. Everyone starts yelling about how unfair this is and all, that a life is not much more than the value of an mp3player, but all this, isn't it a bit hypocrit? I mean, this may not happen a lot here, but isn't it a fact that daily people die of famine and kill each other for food, isn't it a fact that in NY city every 5 minutes, someone gets shot? For some stupid shoes or something?... Okay, it's gruesome what happened and for his family and all, but stil I don't think it should be so commercialized (like filming the funeral and displaying it on a superwidescreen).

"Just" peter. dont act dumb. the problem with having this kind of media interest in such a thing just adds irony to the poor kids death. sorry but it does. for example: when i die i want my funeral shown in super widescreen. and parts of it in slo-mo. and radioheads "Exit Music For A Film" as the sound track. ____________ |

Hypocrit is not a word. It is a common mis-spelling. "Hypocrite" is a word. It means a person given in to hypocrisy. ____________ |
