    i think its a good analogy its put it into perspective (although a bit sick) but it is true, i agree with eBay (and Nexxo) for pulling this auction.

    but who is sicker the person selling the infamous car (if it is the real one) or the person wo buys it?? what are they going ot do with it?? re-inact the reasons why this car is famous?? thats what worries me.

    i like the fact that ebay has banned the sale of the 'car' but banned any reference to the murderer.

    IMO this sort of 'murderbilla' is worse than pron or anything with graphic references to murder/rape/torture, i understand that people has to be educated about prevoius wars etc but that can be done in a desesored way for minors to under stand what happened.

    i dont agree with minors seeing pron but they may be partaking in the stuff they see in later life as its natural (some of it is) so its more educational that a stature of a woman being raped. (there is a statue by a famous sculpture of this)

    ...it's one designed to gets the point across. There is a limit to what can reasonably be considered a "collectible".

    Seperate incidents. I don't mean that Manhunt makes people kill people (IRL), just that it was relative to another well known news story.

    You are talking from experience? And yes of course, I am just off the never used a forum refugee boat, sold my 3 goats, bought a dell, subscribed to some all in one net/phone package(loving the hallmark chanel) and high tailed it to here. I must say thanks for the heads up for this goatless newb

    Regards
