So what would you have done with the offender Billy?
Given the constraints of the law, what do you think the sentance should be?
Given that the the hypothesis is that the law will not deliver justice in this instance the questioner is asking do you agree or disagree with the punishments meted out by our laws?
FYI I'm not particuarly reactionary but this offender has shown no remorse and did'nt even care to appear in court, I've met and meet many people who would callously kill or injure anyone without a second thought, alas I have to admit there are some people I would hang personally and do so cheerfully.
I would withdraw my support for the death penalty if life really meant life, but until then.......
Oops sorry to many full stops.
