Dog the bounty hunter.

It was the Max factor heir he went to Mexico to get. you can google the story. My understanding is he never got the bounty since bounty hunting is illegal in Mexico.

As a christian I like Dog the shows funny and cool. hes not perfect by any means. I'd suggest wathcing it some there some good life lessons in there.

You make a good point Bomzin, but he didnt grab some one by mistake this guy was a rapist !

And your right that his standing in the media shouldnt make a difference as to how he is treated. I dont know about America but in England if some one is proved to have done a great amount for the community and is providing a service above and beyond what others do the authorities are able to make special allowances for them.

This by no means opens the flood gates for others as hardly anybody fits this criteria. But regardless of how much Dog may play up for the camera when he talks about stuff hes done to help people over the years and the amount of criminals that respect him, that wasnt show on camera and was done because he wants to make a difference.

That is why he should be set free.

In American we don't allow special allowances for people who do good, only for celebrities with lots of money. Not sure where Dog falls in with these categories...

Is that the OJ clause? :idea:

I don't know what you're talking about Zeus...OJ was innocent and he is still dilligently looking for the "real killer."

If you find these legal issues troubling, relax and have a Coke. Or try one of America's newest creations, Fried Coke....which I believe qualifies as assisted suicide in some states. I find it disturbing that I found this article right underneath an article about a new pill that may treat obesity and diabetes. One would imagine that the first step in treating these diseases would be to STOP EATING FRIED COKE AT THE FAIR!!

OMG ...YUmmmyyy. I've said it before and I'll say it again . I've never met a fried food I didn't like . Besides that squid thingy witch was just
bo-nasty. Carny food rulz.mmmm... fried twinky.

I have now done 2 turkeys this way and if you've never fried a turkey , Gobble day is right around the corner. Give it a go .

Back to subject.

So it's ok to break international law if it is for a good reason. Why have a law for it in the first place then . If someone is breaking the law to hunt down a criminal in another country , then isn't that a good reason . Thus no need for the law in the first place.

So to sum it up you all just think that law is silly?

I think this is one of those situations where the argument im putting forward is only aplicable because of the circumstances.

The law is there for a good reason but this man has commited a crime and there is no way he can get away with it.

Now there is always the argument that ppl can run away to mexico because they are innocent and know they are not going to be tried fairly. But this man has the option to spend huge amounts of money defending him self and from whats been said before it sounds like if he had, he may have gotten off or just had a slap on the wrist.

But he was running away from justice. I dont see why any country would have a law that says we are going to let criminals in our country running from justice, and then stop you from taking them away....?

To me it just seems insain ! Each case would have to looked at individualy as to weather or not the person should be returned, but in thise case I would have said the decision would have been pretty clear cut.

/rant lol sorry for the long post guys.

The idea of prosecuting someone for bringing someone to justice is just a sad commentary on the legal systems involved...

You sound confused.

What good reasons were you tallking about ? Yes there are good reasons.

Why don't we just have a influx of Bounty Hunters to Mexico to hunt down all the rapist , murders , imbezlers , theif's ect.. bring them all home and before our justice system . All for a good cause.

A case by case basis. So you are going to make it ok to break international treaties , that will be reveiwed latter to see if it was ok . Are you planning on asking Mexican officials before hand , or just do it . They bitch , you say it's ok it was for a good cause.

Better yet why won't Mexican officials allow our officials to do their job instead of having to send a Dog. This is a tuffy be carefull.

If Dog's half the man he claims , I say his punishment should be to hunt agian. Drop him in Afghanistan and let him go after Osama. America's most wanted. That show I would watch.
