Tokenz: 867 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Ok so ill start off by saying my good friend Eric Olsen was brutally beaten to death on the 27th, Now its really been hard for me but i try to think of how he lived a life that was full of excitment. He only lived to be 20 but he was a awesome person these two have helped me Imensly.* 1.life is not measured by how many breathes we take, but by how many moments take our breath away. 2.The dates on a gravestone are not what matters, what really matters is the dash inbetween. if you have a good quote plz post it. even if it doesnt relate to the situation very much. |

Tokenz: 867 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | i see, well heres a link to the page they have for his investigation if you wanna check it out. eric olsen deadmonton 2007 deadmonton edmonton last link on the left Its kinda sad this girl that is pregnant was at first saying it not his, its gotta be this other guy. and since he has died she is CERTAIN its his. I honestly hope it is but shes just saying its his cuz he died. Probably didnt realize how much she liked him until he was gone..... heres another good quote. We are never so hopelessly in love than when we loose it. |

![]() | They must feel so tough, being that it took a bunch of them to gang up on one guy. Tough. |

Tokenz: 867 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | oh i know. its crazy. he tried to run away and climbed on top of a roof. they climbed up there too and beat him down. then continued to after he had fallen. I have lost friends to car accidents and suicides before and that was rough. but never murdered. most of the guys that were involved were charged and are waiting to make their plea. so that a bit of justice.... |

![]() | Well I am glad to hear that there is some justice for his friends and family. They should be shipped off to Pelican Bay State Prison and spend the rest of their sorry excuse for a life there. |

Tokenz: 534 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I love dt3's signature "The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles." —Marine Lieutenant Colonel Jeff Cooper, The Art of the Rifle |

Tokenz: 5,573 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Here's another one by the same guy: "The rifle is a weapon. Let there be no mistake about that. It is a tool of power, and thus dependent completely upon the moral stature of its user. It is equally useful in securing meat for the table, destroying groups of enemies on the battlefield, and resisting tyranny. In fact, it is the only means of resisting tyranny, since a citizenry armed with rifles simply cannot be tyrannized." Last edited by dt3; 06-11-2007 at 08:27 PM. |
