Oscar Pistorius

Charged with the murder of his girlfriend. Hasn't got a leg to stand on if you ask me.

Their must of been something behind it, like all things. He might of been going through a lot of stress or perhaps he got mad at her cheating on him. It is a shame because of what he did during the paralympics and now he is going to be remembered as either a hero or a killer

How did they manage to catch him...

As soon as he'd heard his pistol shot he'd be off guilty or not....

Unfortunately he has now forever defamed himself. I can only assume he was absolutely legless at the time.

why is everyone making jokes about this already

The Police are charging him with murder; they have announced that they have been called to his house because of "Domestic Disputes" on more than one occasion. It is the most graphic example of why gun control laws are a good thing!

I think the Connecticut school shooting was maybe a more graphic example, but a point well made.

Fair point!

Does no one remember him claiming it was unfair he was not allowed to compete in the regular Olympics because he believed his fins gave him no advantage over normal legs, yet when beaten in a Paralympic final he complained the opponent's fins 'gave the other man an unfair advantage'?

He's been an arrogant whinging c**t for years, now he's just an arrogant, whingey, c**ty murderer instead.

Well from what I've read South Africa has very strict gun control laws at the moment. With there being known domestic disturbances before you can only assume that the authorities have allowed him to keep a firearm simply because of his iconic status in the country. There are till reports of him shooting as he thought it was a burglar. Suppose we'll just have to wait for the truth to come out.

A man with "fire arms" and "blade legs" was always going to be a danger.

guns are almost as rife in south africa as they are in the usa. about 10 years ago i spent three months out there working for rolls royce. my driver carried a gun and he did not stop at traffic lights because of the risk of being held up.

there was a newspaper report of a policeman shot dead at traffic lights. the report concluded that in the previous 12 months there were 30,000 reported murders in sa. guy i showed the report to said that was just the reported ones.

i stayed at the cullinan hotel, boksburg, and was told not to go out on my own on a night time. you always see guys carrying not so consealed guns. bit scary really.

when my boss took me out for dinner he ordered a 500gram fillet steak. you could not get one in this country. saw fellas tuck into a rack of ribs and it was a full rack. one side complete and not just a couple of bits.

So, worth the risk for the excellent tucker then Dave?
