Arrested for murders he didnt commit

Maybe its his penance for making a career out of shooting wild lions and other endangered mammals then eh!
Cant say I have much sympathy for him if thats his way of making a living!

[jno]

if he's about to be executed

and you don't have sympathy for him

then it seems reasonable to conclude you don't object to capital punishment. Which might mean you'd like to see it return here. I'm not saying Nosha does, but I thought aog's question was fair enough.

Actually, I think his killing wild animals is irrelevant to this story. If this is true, it's awful. Poor man. What a terrible situation to be in.

[Joanne130]

Agree completely with Naomi on this one

[chaptazbru]

'Poor man' - he kills endangered wild animals for fun. Maybe he'll know some of their pain and fear now !

[chaptazbru]

I agree totally with Nosha on this one.

[ChuckFickens]

How long have lions, leopards and buffalo been endangered?

[emmie]

don't be absurd, we kill millions of animals every day of the week, if you eat meat, then you are part and parcel of that slaughter. If a vegetarian then that would not play a part. But he does not deserve this, he did not commit murder of any human beings.

[craft1948]

I'm amazed that anyone thinks this man has done anything which warrants being falsely arrested and quite possibly executed.

[naomi24]

Had he been arrested for killing wild animals, I'd have been pleased to see justice done. However, he has been arrested for something he hasn't done, and I take no pleasure in that whatsoever.

<in favour of the return of Capital Punishment>

Oh it's so hard for some,

Look the poster doesn't seem to have much sympathy for this game hunter facing the death penalty, because he kills wild animals.

I was merely asking if they were also in favour of the return of capital punishment, since they seem in favour of another country carrying it out on a British chap.

So you would be perfectly happy to see him executed for that, if he was found guilt?

[naomi24]

AOG, why are you banging on about execution? Did I mention execution? I don't believe so.

[Zeuhl]

Oh it's so hard for some,[i

Yes. Some people seem incapable of connecting one thought with another without fabricating bits that were never there.

Like Nosha, I don't 'have sympathy' for this guy.

But I don't want him executed and neither I suspect does Nosha.

ALSO ?

Old Git

can you please point out for us where Nosha wrote she wishes the guy to be executed or believes the legal system in that particular country is a model to be replicated here?

[emmie]

nosha says no sympathy for the guy because he kills wild animals.
So that's all right then. Let them kill him for murders he didn't commit, blimey..

[Mick-Talbot]

As Jno pointed out, sick elderly animals are more often than not the animals killed by these hunters. I'm not sure if that is the case here but it could well be. A swift bullet in the head would be preferable to being torn to pieces by two young male lions.

Well that's two of you obviously ;-)

[Mick-Talbot]

Is that lol aimed at me ?

[chaptazbru]

Chuck - leopards ARE endangered.

[Nosha123]

Well I never could have imagined that I would be virtually accused of supporting Capital Punishment and recommending an innocent man be slaughtered by a corrupt judicial system! there you go!!!
Someone filled in the blanks for me. Added 1 and 1 together and got 3.
Interesting debate though chaps!
