God Hath Not Created Hellfire Hot Enough

I hate to be the Internet Tough Guy, here, but I think I'd kill them if it were my kid.

So would I, wouldn't think twice about it.

I don't have kids, I'm a pacifist and I'm pretty sure I'd shoot these ****ers. I don't think anybody's playing Internet Tough Guy here.

Hard to say what I'd do if faced with this. What is the answer to pure evil in a civilized society? With my 7-year-old, he'd be able to tell me what happened and I guess that might temper my response. With the 5-year-old -- autistic, traumatic brain injury and always non-verbal, sweeter than any child I've ever seen and as innocent as a newborn -- I would fear the very worst. And Internet tough guy or not, I'm not sure my rage would fall short of a slow dismemberment.

I'm more than willing to go to prison for my daughter.

When they get to prison, they'll be getting it neither Quick nor Light

I'm pretty sure Leno had their wedding announcement in Headlines.

I'll pony up for the first carton of cigarettes, as my dear friend HejiraHenry, says.

In one of Edna Buchanan's books, she tells the story of an all-around sociopathic nasty ******* was found guilty of several different things, mostly brutal, during Buchanan's tour of duty on the Miami Herald cops beat. Nasty ******* went to prison, where he was still a nasty ******* and — somewhat inevitably — got shanked in the shower one day. Nobody in the cell bloc would admit to murdering the nasty *******.

One day shortly a sweet little old lady called Buchanan at the Herald newsroom and wanted to know the mailing address for that cell bloc ... she wanted to send every one of them cupcakes.

Stuff happens to really nasty people in prison.

Not too many bleeding heart anti-death penalty remarks on this thread. Just goes to show you that there are times when we must on occasion disconnect human debris from the air we breathe.

Death penalty's more trouble than it's worth. Doesn't work as a deterrent the way it's alleged to, for one thing. Pain in the ass to administer, what with all the mandatory appeals and what-not (and don't start whining about how they should just kill 'em all — not only is it not a good idea, it'd be damned un-Christian of you).

Life in prison, no parole. Let them live with themselves in separate 8-cubic-foot concrete cells for a few decades ... assuming those already on the inside don't administer their own rough justice first.

Two months? Good god.

Always said I chose sports over news "to avoid losing my faith in humanity."

Unbelievable story. I hope punishment is quick, but not light.
