wwaswas - Memberwell, the OP seems to be confusing being murdered with committing murder?
there's [s]less[/s]fewer murderers than victims.
Only for incorrect use of 'less' ...
I was in the same year at school as Thomas Haigh, the lad who shot and killed 2 people (drug dealers that he was in cahoots with), locked them in a van and then buried the van in Cornwall. Was in the news a couple of weeks ago, he'll serve a min of 35 years.
Bit worried though, as I was in the scouts, and my dad is a scout leader 😕
I wouldn't recommend getting started murdering, it's very more-ish.
I watched a comedian die on stage ,does that count ?
TBH ,it wasn't that bad a heckle 😆
Great way to pass the hours
A friend of mine was a police officer and one day he shot dead three guys who tried to kill him and his colleague. His colleague was seriously injured but Robert was unharmed.
It affected him deeply and destroyed his life. He could never understand how he had got up that morning to go to work and ended up responsible for three deaths. And he hated people congratulating him and regarding him as some kind of brave hero.
He drank himself to death recently.
Just to continue the scouts / murderers theme, my mate's dad and my dad used to take turns running us to scouts. When it was my mate's dad's turn, he'd give his ten year old son the car keys and send him off to get the car out of the garage, drive it down the back lane and up the front of the street to the house!
On the way to scouts he'd regale us with tales of his scouting days, which mostly seemed to consist of forcing other kids to eat various horrible things (small dead animals, whole boxes of matches and the like). Even as a kid I knew something wasn't right with him.
About ten years later, he strangled his wife in the Costa del Sol, chopped her into little pieces and dumped her in various bins. He got caught and so far as I know is still in prison.
Friends help you move.. Real friends help you move dead bodies.
Depends where you live. Glasgow's murder rate is around three times the UK average. In the year to March 2011 there was 26 murders in Glasgow. The population is just under 600'000 so roughly 4 murders per 100'000.
Taggart goes and dies and the murder rate goes up it seems.
There seem to be some motorists, who you could willingly hang the tag murderer on in the last few weeks.
I should point out that only one of the 2 killers I shared that tent with was a homicidal psychopathic lunatic the other was just a suggestible idiot. It was fun being their patrol leader for a weeks camp.
On the same camp I also saw another lad lose his temper with someone and chase them round the site with a felling axe before hurling it at them. Luckily it's quite hard to throw one accurately.
Sounds more like clubbed clouts.
The murder rate in Glasgow is down to one thing in particular. Drugs.
Mainly its one dealer slotting a rival. Very few are innocent decent folk getting killed at random.
That said, knife related murders are worryingly prevalent in the death of under 25's. Drink being a common factor in those cases.
I would have thought that Taggart snuffing it would lower Glasweigan murder rate. 1 murder a week is more than the claimed 26 a year! Unless Taggart was on fortnightly? Or for 6 months a year?
“There's been a muuuuurrrrrdddduuuuuurrrrrrrr”
Graham S to the forum please
i dont think that maths is right if it is 1 in 100,000 per population then my odds dont change from year to year as past events do not influence future ones
Ie If i toss a coin and get a head the next year when i do the same the odds are exactly the same as the fact I got a head is irrelevant it is still 50/50.
I am no more likely to be murdered because i am a year older and I was not murdered last year.
anyone know for sure?
EDIT: rate in uk is 1.23 per 100,000 per year. [url= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate ][/url]
so if you live for 70 years do we say chances would (1.23*70) per 100000 = 86.1 per 100,000 = 1 in 1161 ??
i meant these one not the ones at the bottom of P1
Must read thread before posting
But he always caught them and in the repeats you knew who the killer was before he did.
any accidental killers?
My next door neighbour claims to have killer her lover's wife 'with her thoughts'
Even further to the scout theme, Thomas Hamilton who carried out the Dunblane shooting was a Scout Leader.
nice topic boys 🙄
Oh emsz, what's a bit of light-hearted killing between [s]friends[/s] strangers on the internet?
by act, possibly,
by omission, probably,
by intention, never.
I'm a lyrical gangster if that helps..?
One was murdered and three committed suicide from my year at school. Several others will probably have killed numerous people given that they've been in the army for around 18 years.
nice topic boys
agreed, wish i hadn't posted now.
Although that said, i did absolutely murder 'House of the Rising Sun' at a karaoke in Ireland once. I thought I'd attempt it in a low growly delivery reminiscent of Nick Cave, but to anyone that witnessed it it sounded just like a drunk bloke mumbling. To this day i regret not doing Mark E Smith style instead.
There are people alive today because I cannot afford a hitman
I shot a man in Reno
Just to watch him die
Yes. I emptied a whole gun into an eskimo who'd stabbed with a piece of wood. Just as we were both dying on the front lawn of the house where I used to live I woke up!!!!
SB
EDIT - Didn't we do this already?
I shot the sherrif, not the deputy though.
I stabbed a man in Reno.
I don't know if he died.
Honestly, all these scouts murdering each other. The mind woggles!
Do they get a badge to sew on their uniforms or something?
Aborting fetus is killing ...
I was in the Scouts, loved it, never killed anyone though.
Someone from my year group was getting a lift into school with their Dad and they ended up running over and killing his best friend. Very sad story. 🙁 I think 3 or 4 kids got hit and killed on the same stretch of road that year and now it has some mental traffic calming measures.
On a lighter note. I did save someones life, literally. I was walking through Salford and a kid ran into the road without looking, I grabbed his hood without thinking and yanked him back. The van that would have hit him was only on the brakes after the point where he ran into the road.
Next thing I had his mother shouting at me to get my hands off her kid. The mind boggles.
chewkw...you've just murdered some spelling.
As well as the 2 killers and the axe wielding maniac in our troop we also had one lad who ended up dead in a car crash a couple of years later and a suicide.

I once pulled a friend back from under the wheels of a car and I only managed that because he'd just bought a new tyre for his bike and was wearing it diagonally over one shoulder. Sorry I can't remember the tyre model but it was for his 10 speed Carlton.
xbox online for all your friend killing needs. Got me through winter nights.
First law firm I worked at, one of the female lawyers was sent down for murdering two of her three kids. Eventually it was proved they died of a rare condition. Very sad and ruined the lives of the whole family.
Second place I worked, some colleagues had worked for Christopher Lumsden, who stabbed his wife in the face so many times the pathologist couldn't count the injuries. He got out after 2 years and inherited c£1 million from her estate.
I worked with one of Baden-Powell's direct descendants.
Watch out for lawyers.
cynic-al - Memberchewkw...you've just murdered some spelling.
foetus ... yes, yes, the American spelling is better.
Ex-girlfriend was murdered on holiday in USA.
A bandmate got murdered in a pub.
2 mates hung themsleves,another threw himself of a high rise car park.
And three (all young)women and one bloke I worked with died suddenly and unexpectedly.
I ride alone...it's safer for others
I murder my new boss several times a day, fortunately for him and me it's still in my head. I've now watched so many episodes of Criminal Minds I feel should I actually "go Postal" it'll be a long trail of corpses before they get me.
Yes mother, I'm coming now..............

Not directly.
I arrested a bloke on boxing day about 15 years ago for drink driving. He was a decent working bloke who had stormed out of his house after a family arguement and without thinking he jumped into his car whilst about twice the legal limit. He crashed nearby and i found him behind the wheel. All he kept saying was how he would lose his job if he lost his licence and how he and his wife were struggling as it was. He was charged and much later on, when sober was released on bail (after I'd gone off duty). I was on duty the next day and was called to an address which was familiar to me but didn't put the two together. He'd hung himself and had his bail sheet in his trouser pocket.
Jeeze Bregate - thats rough. Not your fault at all though - not even remotely. Not even on the same planet really.
My brother took his own life - despite being in bother - up to the last day he never blamed anyone else except himself.
Also I must admit to murdering English sentence grammatically almost
everyday which is my fault.
I've killed someone softly, with my song.
binners - Member
Scouts is clearly a hotbed of murderisors. I suspect this wasn't what Baden-Powell had in mindPOSTED 12 HOURS AGO # REPORT-POST
So Binners, you are not dead and you haven't murdered anybody....What was your experience of the Scouts....
