Father throws children from bridge

Father Murders 4 Children

What the **** makes someone do something like this?! The lowest point on this bridge is a solid 30 feet above the water-line, usually. Why the hell do things like this happen? This is not what I wanted to see on the local news as I opened my eyes this morning.

This is a pic of the bridge spanning the Mississippi Sound. This stretch has the strongest current in the entire Gulf of Mexico because it is right at the base of Mobile Bay, where some major rivers empty into the westward flow of the Gulf. Dauphin Island creates a funnel effect through the Sound w/ all that water coming in. I've just heard a report that they're searching all the way over to tip of Louisiana, but have had to call of the search already tonight because of weather.

Even if they survived the fall, children that young can't swim very well. Even my son who is 4 and an excellent swimmer would drown. Poor kids.

"What the **** makes someone do something like this?!"


Usually when I toss some kid off a bridge into the water I'm thinking, "It'll be easier to do this than wash off the blood from my clothes after I chop 'em up into little bits and feed 'em to my pet goat."

However, I can't speak for everyone...I'm pretty lazy most of the time and the goat gets really bad heartburn if it eats too much. In this guy's case, he's probably just crazy.

Why? Who knows. People who take out their anger or frustrations on the defenseless--especially children--are weak and pitiful. If that's what the guy did, he deserves to be locked away and never see daylight again.

37-year-old Lam Luong reportedly told authorities he had thrown all four children into the water from the Dauphin Island Bridge. The children were identified as 3-year-old Ryan Phan, 2-year-old Hannah Luong, 1-year-old Lindrey Luong, and 4-month-old Danny Luong.
Imagine the horror of those four little babies strapped into their car seats watching as "daddy" threw their brothers and sisters off the bridge.

He doesn't deserve to live. He doesn't deserve a trial where some shyster will attempt to get him off on a bogus insanity plea.

Shoot him in the ****ing brain and be done with him.

Why does someone do this? Two possibilities:

1) Is mentally ill and isn't capable of the rational thought required to understand that murdering children is wrong.

2) Is a complete and total a****** and doesn't care that murdering children is wrong.

Your guess is as good as anyone's as to which of these more accurately describes this guy.

Throw HIS ass off the bridge. He was doing it to "get back at his estranged, or ex-, wife", from reports I've seen. He's already admitted to it, why burden US with the expense of a trial? Just take him up there, throw him off. Done. Fish food. Scum like that deserve neither mercy nor clemency.

Or, strap him in a chair, hook up bungee cords that'll allow him to touch water, and toss him. Let him come back up, repeat four times, once for each of his kids, but unhook the bungees the last time. Bastard! I hope Satan eats his liver in front of him!

Don't use the word father to describe this pathogen

Like the Nickelback song lyrics:

Father's a name you haven't earned yet


+1 to Bob's.

This is one case where "Cruel and unusual punishment" WOULD fit the crime.
Belly-boarding down a gravel road might be a start.
