A food to die for -- literally

It's not just the US, my goodness the whole world is going to hell in a hand basket. I think there's just too much stress in this old world.

No, nothing is worth ruining or ending a life. For a pop tart or anything else! Kind of sounds like something else was going on and this put her over the edge.

I think she just wanted an excuse. She must have been building up resentment for a long time. I cannot think of anything worth stabbing or being stabbed for. Certainly not Pop Tarts. I do not even like them.

Some people are absolutely unbelieveable, and it's crazy the things they will do, and the reasons they will give for doing them. If you ask me, this lady need some serious mental help. Here's hoping that those reading this never find themselves in this kind of relationship.

While I do enjoy eating, I can't say that I would want to die or kill over a food. I do think that violence is growing in al parts of the world, although I wish it wasn't so. I wish the world was a better place and that we could end all violence. Why not promote kindness, accomodating others, putting others ahead of ourselves? Might be a better world!

I wonder what she woulda done for a Ding Dong?

Now that was really crazy, something really had to be wrong with her. I see you live in New York, be careful with the Swine Flu going around, i knoew that you are careful!

obviously the issue is not pop tarts, there were problems that were never addressed in that relationship and it came to a head when she stabbed him. Yes I have heard of this, once I heard of an elderly man who stabbed his wife because she burned the toast, or something stupid like that.

That's crazy. The big issue here though is the fact that she decided to stab someone over something like a pop tart. This woman has a lot of pent up anger and if she'll stab over a pop tart, she'll stab over anything. Of course we can't be too quick to judge, we don't know the full story, he could be a real a$$ and maybe he deserved it but this story reminds me of a case we had at work a few weeks ago where the husband was whipper snipping his grass and his dog was barking at it. First he tried to strangle the dog and when his wife yelled at him to stop he went inside the house and grabbed a knife and stabbed the poor dog. The dog had to be euthanased as the wife couldn't afford surgery. There are manydangerous people living around us, it's unnerving.

LOL and it had to be over a pop tart heheh Actually from reading the article I get the idea that what kind of food it was didn't really matter. The refusal to allow her to eat anything in there might have been the main reason behind the whole thing. Nothing is worth dying for - or at least very few things are -so I will tend more towards option b) US - and indeed the whole world - is going crazy. People are indeed acting really strange nowadays. tempers are high, people act selfishly and impulsively, consequences do not deter anything, and it's like we're in the middle of some weird game. Violence breeds violence. People that grow up in places where violence is high, seem to have developed some sort of emotional immunity to violence. It doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary. But then again, there was always violence in the world, some gratuitus just like now. So maybe this is just normal too. Maybe we aren't supposed to evolve. Or maybe for each evolution we have to go back a few steps in other things.. maybe that's how we evolve - 1 step forward, 5 or 6 backwards :)

Hi Ebs_place, These people are getting really crazy, this person must have been on something and was on a downer to stab a person just for pop tart, I cannot understand people today, its a crazy world. Tamara

Oh my gosh... No, I don't think any food is worth dying for. There has to be something wrong with her, if she stabbed him over a pop tart... seriously. The human race is getting scarier by the year.
