I guess I am a sociopath, because I have stepped on ants plenty of times, and have also poured kerosene down fire ant mounds. And never once felt bad about that.

Sorry, but it's true. I guess it sounds hypocritical that I would never kill a person, but would readily kill a fire ant.

Right there with you. I'm in ant-killing mode now being that it is spring and fire-ant mounds abound a plenty. I would never kill a person, but I kill ants every chance I get.
 
Yep. Same here. Instinct told us that "last person CM was ever seen with" before she was abducted, had really good odds of being the one who did something to her. Just plain ole common sense. And now we have lots of evidence that says the same thing.

Me too!

I just can't help but think about this case simply, and logically. EA, in my opinion, has simply got lucky with where he put CM. The fact she wasn't reported missing for 4 days played a part in this too.
 
Slightly O/T but I've been reading the threads for the Australian case of Jill Meagher who was abducted from the street and murdered and on that thread a book was recommended (can't remember the name but can look back if anyone is interested) along those very lines - trusting your instincts and not worrying about offended people who might approach you in the street - better safe than sorry
The Gift of Fear might be the book you are thinking of, if not- it is a great book on the same subject!
 
Without intuition, gut reactions, and creative thinkers we would still be living like cavemen.

I think cavemen relied heavily on intuition, gut reactions and creative thinking, HSH. To me, modern, civilized man has moved away from it. I think we're on the same page about its importance, though.
 
Maybe I should say, we wouldn't be the society we are today without creative thinkers. Steve Jobs? Albert Einstein? Van Gogh? Tim Burton? Jk. ;)

I think we are on the same page on this one.

I hate to see people discredit the truly creative and open thinkers. We need that as much as we need logic. I think the point is to inspire one another, anyway.

I think intuition/gut feelings are our built-in early warning systems. But then we really need facts and our deductive reasoning skills. They go hand-in-hand, IMO. I certainly had my antennae quivering in the early stages of this case and still do at times regarding certain "others", but the main man is where he should be now, moo.

That's exactly why I said I think we are meant to inspire each other. They go hand in hand.
 
Well I found this thread on page 3. Is there anything anyone would like to discuss besides that she was in EA'S trunk? Or are we just supposed to stop until the trial? I guess I'm fairly new to Websleuths, so this is confusing to me.

I won't stop thinking, even if it's not appropriate here to share. I really think Christina deserves someone to give a damn. I guess I have a soft spot since it took 4 days before she was even noticed to be missing....

There were about 25,000 signatures (last I looked) on that petition to name the baby giraffe "Nina".. Those signatures came from all over the world. I think it's safe to say that people do care. On here, though, there really is only so much to discuss, without beating the topics into submission.. The stuff some folks want to discuss. you can't... and that doesn't leave much else at this point. I guess when the trial starts, this place will light up like a Christmas tree..
 
Yeah, I think yr totally right. I certainly do not think people do not care. I just don't think we can talk here much. It makes me sad. But, I understand.

Thank you. Very good, yes. Intuition - instinct. Deduction - higher reasoning.

The limbic system consisting a set of primitive structures that provide for basic needs via the olfactory, amygdala and hippocampus, among others, combined with the much more advanced prefrontal cortex needed for planning complex cognitive behavior. It is believed that this combination contributes to advancing the human race by rewarding complex problem solving as related to the pleasure obtained from basic needs like eating and sex, for example.

So we are not satiated just by satisfying the basic need - we desire a result that brings us beyond that to a place we feel mentally satisfied.

I am just a disabled janitor, but sometimes things make sense to me even if I cannot state it cohesively, LOL

ETA: I meant to work in Critical Thinking there, but somehow I lost my track. :thinking:

MOO
 
Of course. And I don't think anyone here would be suggesting creative thinkers and strict logicians can't get along...

On a positive note (for me), when it's slow here, I can finally get some other things done that I keep putting off...lol
 
I really think Christina deserves someone to give a damn.

Respectfully, I disagree (strongly disagree!!!!!!) with your insinuation that people here don't give a damn about Christina. In fact, I think it's just the opposite - that the insistence on following the evidence, and on examining/pursuing the one that the evidence indicates did her wrong, is an indicator of the fact people care. We want the guy who did it to be the guy under the microscope, sleuthed, convicted, and locked away for as long as possible, for such heinous acts. Focus. Because we care.

If EA did it, and acted alone (and so far, that's exactly what the evidence indicates), then why would anyone who cares about Christina want the conversation to be focused elsewhere, on some other person or some other act?

But all the evidence points at one guy. Lots and lots of it. It's easy to get distracted as to what's important, but he was the last person with her, she was put IN HIS TRUNK (and there's your abduction), she has never been seen or heard from again, and he's tried to cover up everything he did with her and in the days that followed. So all the answers for Christina lie with him. He knows where he put her. He knows if he had a helper. He knows what happened after the video. It may be boring to keep focusing on him, but imo it shows a caring for justice for Christina to do the boring process of continuing to focus on the guy who did it, according to all the evidence.

Of course, if there's evidence against others, let's talk about them. What's the evidence that indicates an involvement of another in THIS crime of abduction and perhaps murder? So far, none. But if someone has something to tie another to THIS CRIME (of abduction, and perhaps murder), would certainly love to hear the evidence and take it where it leads.
 
I agree ^^^^^
Those who do not...please share what you believe points to others. Yes, we know her BF is a drug dealer...but as far as we know, he was not around that night and had to reason no abduct Christina, or have someone else do it. And if EA had anyone else to share the blame, I really believe he would have spilled it long ago. But he doesn't...he is "it." For whatever reason, whatever happened between Christina and him, or did not happen that he wished had...he took her away from that parking garage to who knows where...and killed her. And I have my doubts as to whether he will ever admit it...some people can't or won't, even if facing the death penalty. Jmo
 
Is there something wrong with this thread, or is it just me?? Mods?
