What do you think about this??
« on: February 28, 2005, 01:20:23 am »
I got an email from a friend today. I\'ve uploaded it so you can read it, and forward it to other people if you wish.

Personally I don\'t think these people should get a second chance at all, so I\'m not too happy that these guys have been released. I\'ve heard that some people think otherwise though. Any opinions here?

They should have been given the death penalty.

Pity they don\'t live in Texas....

Damn, that\'s just wrong...really wrong. I don\'t think people should be given a second chance over something so terrible. Yeah, if they stole a candy from a store, you could possibly let that slide...but torture and murder?!?!? Hell no. Who is the arse doing this? Lady Justice Butler-Slosshas...I think SHE should be thrown in Jail for what she is doing...it is so wrong...

Xordan: Can you forward this email to me? stewgopher6345 at hotmail dot com. I will then forward it to anyone who wants it next.

EDIT: Heh, Aendar...I should bring them back over here and give them an \"informal\" Death Penalty...*Faldrok starts singing \"Texas, Our Texas.\"...*

Edited for language.

Well, I guess my location gives away my opinion...

But I have to say, I\'ve never liked the concept of \"second chances\".  It just seems to me, you screw up, you pay the price.  No matter how little or big that is.

Eh. :baby:

I agree. Those kids should serve a life sentance, or execution. If you take someone\'s life, you should pay for it with your own.

Ever hear of an eye for an eye?

I think that would be adequate punishment.

Yeah, I strongly believe in an eye for an eye. I\'ve even talked to people about it, (including a judge) and they think it is immoral and inhumane. Well, what about the deed of the first person? I mean, if I went out and cut out someone\'s eyeballs, and then ripped out their tongue and waited until they choked on their own blood...it would be considered immoral and inhumane. Being the one doing the deed, I wouldn\'t expect sympathy and passion - I would expect death. So, why not kill me the same way I killed the other person? It\'s fair and all...

Back the the original topic, I still think they should spend the rest of their life in Jail/Prison or get executed. There is NO excuse for taking the life of an innocent or random person. I act a little more reasonably towards someone who killed a Serial Killer or someone who killed their family. I would likely do the same thing. But, what these kids did to that 3-year-old is just terrible. I think I\'ve showed my standing on this more than enough...

That is a truly terrible story... I especially hate seeing anything happening to young children (I have two of my own)  but at ten years old these kids are just too young for the death penalty... and that is the easy way out in the first place.  I do think they should be imprisoned their whole lives though for such a crime.  That them think about what they have done.. and they should not recieve new identities either.

That is terrible, I think they should be locked away for life while only being given the bare minimun to survive and so suffering years of pain, anguish and guilt.

If I ever find these two I shall make sure their lives end up as bad as I can arrange for it to be (without it being illegal of course)

I think releasing them wouldn\'t have been as bad.  But by offering them new identities they are letting them live the rest of their lives free of the reminder and thus the guilt of what they did.

Agreed...  They should be reminded daily of what they did and the people they hurt because of their extreme stupidity.

I do not belive in taking somones life no matter what they did. They shouldn\'t get life since they where only 10 years too. I saythey should have 40 more years in there.

I am completely against the death penatly too... and normally against life in prison.  But this case is a little different.  I dont know how remorseful the kids are.. and im not sure if I care... but never would they go free.  You cannot put a time limit on what they did... and how do we know if they will ever be better.. because they must have some mental problems... I say life in prison with the possibility of Parrol after anywhere from 35-50 years... but not free.  Whether they spend the time in a half way house or whatever... they should not have their freedom.
