For me "Violent video games" are not in themselves an issue, I see them as a safe release for primal instincts that may have helped mankind survive to modern times (that don't really fit in the modern world). I guess the same could pretty much be said of the MMA as well.

Green Day...Lulz.

Even poser punk bands are screeching about "buuuut think of the children"? These are truly dark times.

The dude is in his mid-40s, rocking eyeliner and emo hair. I think that's all that needs to be said.

Mid 40s? I expected him to be around my age.

mid 40s? so he's my age. I guess idiocy knows no age limit.

I personally, I don't see him as "thinking" (if you can call it that) beyond himself. He doesn't like something, it must go. I could almost understand his reasoning on being subjected to the MMA but he chose to be at a venue that featured it.

But how was he forced to endure the games though?

Whether you go on about death penalty or age of consent - I prefer legal principle to case by case, by Scandi and EU morality.

Is this morality tougth? you might ask. Wrong question I think. I simply think human life is invaluable and children should have the rights to be children.

What do you mean? you probaly ask. Let me tell. Human beings are not rid of their lives by the state. And children are not legally copulated with.

What is that hard about morality above? ;-)

And I'd suggest not to try your gender distiction complex with a Finn.

Finnish - with only Turkish I think - has but a word for the third person. Those "she" and "he" you fuss about are simply "hän" in Finnish.

There is no "she" or "he" - only hän.

And if you must now, "it" is "se." Meanwhile "se" would never be used for humans, but some excessive dog lover migth use "hän" in substitute for "she" or "he".

All of us Finns are "hän" when referred to in third person.

But that is not the case in the rest of the world. And when using English we use English grammar, not FInnish.

Second. Again. Minors deserve more agency, freedom, and responsibility than the amount they currently get from "Adults" and the state.

So when you suggest "it" as it suits you, me pointing out there is more pertinent "hän" - that serves the purpose of human third person, and not "it" - it is a bit unpleasant?

Please.

Tolkien would not go with u there, if it helps you.

And it really seems we do not agree on "minors."

To me child is a child whom should enjoy childhood and family life, and kinder garden most plausibly, and universal education most certainly from age seven up to fifteen.

I appreciate it might be different in Mexico, but also please try and understand when there is no death penalty for the adults, even if you flaunth a really horrible case, there cannot be support for executing children.

And I am not for executing adults either. And am a bit surprised Mexico would really.state.

My (Finnish) impression has been that Mexico would not be with the capital punishment- had to check to be sure against an authentic opinionon, purportedly, or maybe truly.

Any which way I wish that Mexico could dispense justice without fear or favour. And also that the EU would put better effiort unto MX-EU bilateral relatationship. I am not perso satisfied with EU diplomatic effort at the moment, it seems deeply inwardly twisted. (Am pro EU perso thou)

EU is a parasite, all foreign intervention in Mexico has resulted in us getting buttfucked. EU, America, they are all parasites. The people is not to blame, but the governments have fucked us. And EU is the worst, they are parasites of the very same nations they represent. If one falls the others are forced to fall with it.
Oh, and yes, I already mentioned death penalty is illegal in Mexico. But Mexicans are not precisely pleased with that.
The only circumstance in which death penalty is legal is "Treason to the nation", and is never applied because Mexicans are cowards. When you live in a first world country with little to no serious threats death penalty sounds insane, but when you live in a place full of atrocious merciless savages who use the people as tools. That is when things get ugly and you need death penalty as punishment for many horrible crimes.

But how could you understand that? You don't read in the news about beheaded civilians hanging on a bridge because they got to close to a gang's turf. That is not how you live. You could not see how much pressure my people take, you don't know why we consider death penalty necessary. We are almost at war. If there is not a civil war is because civilians are not allowed to bear arms due to heave gun control.

It is too easy to apply your own morality to all cases when you are oblivious to other situations.

Back to my point about minors. Where does giving them freedom, agency, and responsibility, based on their needs, and individual maturity, knowledge, achievement, misdeeds, and other related traits of their actions, is at odds with them having a childhood and access to education?

I don't think you are interpreting my arguments correctly and I think you are running in circles trying to attack an argument you are reluctant to understand. I don't think you are not capable of doing so, I think you don't want to do so.

The constant atrocities of war lead to such extremist attitudes, we understand that well. The American people have only gotten the teensiest sip of it and are ready to vote for Trump in return, as if that didn't make absolutely all of their problems worse. The Mexicans have gotten way too much and demand the death penalty as if that wiped corruption and drugs away, and the right to bear arms as if that resulted in less gun fights among civilians.

From the perspective of the countries that are better off, it's easy to think "God what stupid and abominable folks are those, they deserve what's coming to them". But they aren't stupid and they aren't abominable. The Mexicans aren't... and in absolutely the same way, the Syrians aren't either.

Extreme social situations – war, bullying, some perceived looming threat to your way of life – makes extremists, and some extremists seize on whatever cultural thing has been the most steady and constant in their life – religion, patriotism, movies, video games – to channel their extremism into terrorist action. Whether policiticans blame the Muslim religion as a whole or video games as a systemic problem, it's the very same communicative strategy of hyperbolic scapegoating in order to oversimplify a complex social problem.

Maybe a thing to think about. As opposed to thinking about some random internet agitator who took up the name of an historical imperialist dictator blabbering about imperialism without an emperor.

If you are asking me for the race to the bottom, Philippines overtook Mexico there - and I do not mean this in a gung-ho manner.

Only I think Philippines ambadassor should have been called in to a diplomatic talk formally in Finland - like Iranian diplomat was asked due to concern of Ali al-Nimr being executed when centenced as a teenager.

I am not pretending to understand, but I also never thought Mexican ambassodor at par with Philippines.

And I do not agree at all with EU being a force for worse, or being very wicked. I am not sure if our Scandi neighbours even care for Fin, but I'd still wish them to be the most successful nations in the world.

I cannot say I know Croatia or Malta very well - for a sake of an example - but I will also want these nations to do well, because this is Europe.

i perso see EU as my Scandi neigbours, or Croatia or Malta, etc - I should like all of them the most successful nation, with mine. But I admit - our Scandi neighbours first if it were so limited! ;-)

It is easy to dismiss EU - when to me it is really about my love of my neighbours, and my wish that all of my continent would do well.
