Actor and fitness instructor Greg Plitt was struck and killed by a train

[ShredMN]

I needed to post something else to refute any more people from using the "sociopath" claim.

I honor evolution, and the death of Greg Plitt by a train is an exemplary example of evolution. Not worthy of feeling remorse for his death, but rather honoring it by contributing to evolution by thinning the herd of people who are not "fit." And when I say fit, I'm talking about evolutionary fitness, not being shredded.

A group started back around 1985 that honors such indivduals for their sacrifice for the better of mankind. The award is known as the "Darwin Award."

Here's some background info from Wiki:

The Darwin Awards are a tongue-in-cheek honor, originating in Usenet newsgroup discussions circa 1985. They recognize individuals who have supposedly contributed to human evolution by self-selecting themselves out of the gene pool via death or sterilization by their own actions.

The project became more formalized with the creation of a website in 1993, and followed up by a series of books starting in 2000, authored by Wendy Northcutt. The criterion for the awards states, "In the spirit of Charles Darwin, the Darwin Awards commemorate individuals who protect our gene pool by making the ultimate sacrifice of their own lives. Darwin Award winners eliminate themselves in an extraordinarily idiotic manner, thereby improving our species' chances of long-term survival."[2]

Accidental self-sterilization also qualifies; however, the site notes: "Of necessity, the award is usually bestowed posthumously." But the candidate is disqualified if "innocent bystanders", who might have contributed positively to the gene pool, are killed in the process.

Calling such individuals sociopaths who think this way is also not accurate. Viewpoints differ from person to person, and no one can be the ultimate judge of such viewpoints and chastise them for having said viewpoints. There is no harm in holding such a viewpoint, other than it may offend some people.

Point taken. I was not calling you a sociopath ,I was pointing out your statement sounded like one. After reading your reply I truly believe I passed a judgement prematurely. I should not have judged rather ask to explain. I can't say I understand but I may not be objective for the subject matter thus I already have children.

While I don't agree with Plitts choice to advertise himself as natty, though he most certainly was not, what I will say is that in death whether he used PEDs or not is kind of irrelevant. I also understand though that people are going to disrespect as they see fit just as well as deify him as they see fit, neither of which I beleive is the correct choice.

I don't know too much about Plitts but my only gripe in this whole thing is how countless fools are making the guy into something in death that he wasn't in life. I didn't see these same people posting regular 'motivational videos' about Plitt as is seen with the zyzz following and can only assume that people are saying how great and 'motivational' he was due to the fact that he died and died a brutal death at that. Furthermore, regardless of the manner in which he passed, Id prefer not to raise a figure into some sort of idol merely due to the fact that he met an untimely death.

How in the fuck do you get killed by a train? That's really what I'd like to know here!! How the hell do you not hear it coming at you? towards you? behind you? Unless this is some sort of train I'm not familiar with in another country. But in the United States I would find it hard to believe someone couldn't hear it coming down the tracks

Something somewhere said he stumbled. Maybe he was trying to film the train.

Something doesn't add up honestly and I'd love to find what he was reslly doing when it Happened

How in the fuck do you get killed by a train?

Been to 2 calls for teenagers killed, walking to school on train tracks, with their headphones on and ipods blaring. never got to outgrow the ignorance of adolescence!

BUT...also went on a call for a taxi cab hit by a train at a crossing. 13 yr old girl was the lone passenger. Train broadsided the cab and pushed it for over 400 yds. It only slid along once the tires popped. Had it flipped it would of been a whole different story. The driver was unharmed and the girl walked away with a small 2 stitch cut on her forehead. Sometimes you get lucky in life

There was no foul play, the guy was just a moron... There's nothing more to it than that, don't look for answers where there are none.

What happened was natural selection at it's finest.

Was obviously an illuminati, bilderberg, skull & bones, free-mason, alien, lizard-man, shapeshifting train! Duh... How else could one get hit by a regular train, even when he wasn't the only one there to warn him a train was indeed coming.

Yea fuck him. He's the lowest lifeform ever. They should run him over a couple more times then go find his family to kill & rape them too. Yea that's what you get for dying. Fuck it lets dig up his ancestors & piss n shit on them too. Maybe skullfuck the pets. You in? What a fucking piece of shit for dying hahahaha

No one ever stated that his family now deserves to die, but he clearly was unfit to contribute to the gene pool and, quite frankly, did the world a favor for dieing from his own stupidity. Stop twisting meanings. Refer back to the "darwin awards" for the logic behind my statement.

 

[boodecarlo]

No fuck it im serious bro lets do it.

 

[boodecarlo]

I really don't need to reference anything you post to enlighten or improve me. You will be the first person I've used the ignore button on since I've been here so congratulations.

 

[ShredMN]

If because my opinions differ from your own, and you chose to ignore me for it, so be it. No one is stopping you, and you don't need to make a public statement about it either.

I've not made any personal attacks on anybody because my viewpoint is not the same as theirs. If that's how you choose to live your life, I'm most certainly not going to try to "enlighten or improve" you.
