Ever hear of saying 'I'm not interested in hearing any more about that crazy shit, man. That's real fucked up' and leaving it at that?
Oh. I see. I broke the 'dude code'. Yeah, yer prolly right. I should have let this guy kill two people to uphold some backward, testosterone-driven jr. college idiom. Bros before hoes and such?

no it's called not getting involved in someone else's stupid shit, I do it every day
Dude wasn't gonna kill anyone and even if he was what do you care?
That's his buisness.
The people probably had it coming anyway if he was that pissed about whatever they did to him.
You actually went thru all this bullshit with the police, actually like talking to police officers...HELPING them even. You think those cops are any better than the dude you worked with?
I bet you couldn't wait to tell on some motherfuckers when you were in school, huh?

A couple of times. The latest was a woman drowning in Barton Springs in Austin.
But nothing along the lines of the NY Subway guy.

What if he had sprung someone's batshit crazy aunt/cousin from a loony bin? Would that have been within the bounds?
I saved lots of lives. I used to drive an amublance.

Last Easter a neighbour of ours doused himself in gasoline a set himself on fire out side the home of his estranged wife across the street from us. He was a basically a human torch from the knees upward. My girlfriend heard the shrieking and we ran over and managed to get the flames out. The guy was walking around babbling when the ambulance arrived maybe ten minutes later. He walked into the ambulance and was lucid enough to state his name and age to the paramedics.
We didn't really manage to save his life though; he asphixiated pretty much on arrival at the ER. But I had the impression that he thought he'd survived. I don't think he wanted to die. I think he underestimated just how viciously combustable gasoline is and that his act was a desperate cry for help. Tragic and horrifiying.
Whenever I look at the spot where this occurred the image of that burning man is just indelibly etched in my mind.

I don't follow what you are getting at, I know it's trying to be an insult in my direction but it makes no sense.
Make some sense when you step up to the plate, please...don't waste everyone's time with half assed nonsense

I don't blame you for being traumatized. Goddam, the guy was probably sizzling all the way to the hospital.
