- i don't think those factors enter into the (flawed) decision-making process in the heat of the moment -- nm - charlie Jun 26, 14:20 5
  - they don't call it the red veil for nuthin'...nm - x Jun 26, 14:30
  - they should. nm -- nm - groiny Jun 26, 14:20 3
    - i think that's why they call it the "heat of the moment" people don't think when emotions take over -- nm - charlie Jun 26, 14:22 2
      - in some sitiuations, I would agree. - groiny Jun 26, 14:23 1
        
        if he's a true sociopath AND stupid nothing will really matter to him. not even all. that. damn. cash. -- nm - Diva Jun 26, 14:29
I disagree. nm -- nm - groiny Jun 26, 14:16 12
- anyone who kills anyone is risking throwing their life away. being rich doesn't make it more stupid. -- nm - Andie Jun 26, 14:18 11
  - most people who kill someone, likely do not have 30 million in the bank. nm -- nm - groiny Jun 26, 14:19 10
    - but so what? they have kids, family, lives. -- nm - Andie Jun 26, 14:20 9
      - when you are worth that kind of money, you should not associate with someone - groiny Jun 26, 14:25 8
        
        unfortunately, receiving money doesn't instantly make you smarter or give you common sense. not that those always matter - plenty of smart people do - b. Jun 26, 14:27 7
        
        but you see, in the NFL, they have meetings with these guys, about associating with the right people. - groiny Jun 26, 14:29 6
        
        they are twentysomething millionaires who have never been told no their entire lives. a lot of 'em aint never listening...nm - x Jun 26, 14:35 2
        
        I know, but like I said, it is not like he did not know better. - groiny Jun 26, 14:43 1
        
        Or, he was arrogant enough to think he could get away with it - Brian Jun 26, 14:45
        
        yeah, but what do a bunch of suits know? -- nm - znufrii Jun 26, 14:31
        
        and still a lot of the players associate with the wrong people. -- nm - charlie Jun 26, 14:30 1
        
        yes. not so smart, think they'll be different/that they can handle it, etc. look at how many players lose all their money, for another example. - b. Jun 26, 14:37
