I see a lot of terrific advertising themes for Greyhound as they move forward from this unfortunate event.

Just don't let him carve the turkey...
You first.

Why? He has proven to be able to carve

Did you guys read one of the latest articles that also mentioned the killer was eating chunks from the victim's body as he was butchering it? This guy is a canibal!

Not to worry, folks, a bit of remediating, a change of diet, and he'll be good to go!

Maybe he needs to accept Jesus as his savior.

There was a woman who heard God telling her to give her kids a rock party. 2 or 3 died, not sure. 1 with permanent brain damage.

I think this is bullshift! This pisses me off to know that at least 40+ people were around when someone got stabbed 50+ times and then beheaded. No one tried to help? What if it was their family member or loved one? I understand if some people were maybe older, had medical conditions, or unable to help, but come on! There had to be atleast- ATLEAST!- one person that was fit enough to wrestle the guy down while others jumped in to grab the knife. Im sorry, but I just get really upset at hearing scenarios like this when everyone is around, but no one does anything. How history would be changed if the passengers of 9-11 had actually stood up to do something.

Read the story before jumping to conclusions. Most people were asleep when the attack started happening without any warning. Most likely the guy was already dead before anyone even saw it. Would you go confront this guy as he's decapitating a dead body with a big hunting knife or would you get the f**k outta there? I know I'd do the latter.

So who wants to be the one to wrestle him and possibly take the knife for a stranger? They were not in imminent danger so why would they? Now in Flight 98, they all knew they were going to die so they had nothing to lose in trying to regain control of the flight. In this case, they could have run out and not gotten themselves killed. But you want them to risk their necks for a total stranger?

Definitely some type of minor metabolic imbalance at play here. Did anyone check his blood sugar level when he was first detained?

Some guys (such as this guy and most pedophiles) are pretty much immune to rehab.

Doesn't mean that scoffing at the concept is useful. One our every 100 adults in the US is in prison or jail. We have 5% or world population and 25% of the world's prison population. And lousy recidivism rates.

Effective rehab of petty criminals, drug dealers, etc., could be very cost-effective. But we have this hang-up about "rewarding" criminals.
