Nothing in my opinion Sherwick it's just that it should be carried out by the authorities and in the case of the two offenders being dicused they should be locked up for the rest of their lives being that when they leave it will be in a box. They should be locked up for 23 hours a day with no human contact for those 23 hours unless strictly nessecery. No T.V or any other form of entertainment. Soundproof cell. basic yet reasonable sanitary utilities. Strictky monitored to stop themselves doing themselves any harm (I want them to live out their incarceration for as long as possible) A very tiny window that gives them a very small glimpse of the world that is passing them by.


In effect, a living tomb.


I'm seriously struggling to get to grips with peoples lack of imagination regarding the conditions I've described above.


If someone killed a member of my family and I knew they were enduring the conditions I've described and was safe in the knowledge that they were never goin to be released I'd be content that justice had been done.

The "waste of effort and money" is a red herring... for the tiny proportion of crimes which would warrant a death sentence (e.g. in the U.S.) I don't think it's going to make any difference at all to the costs of the prison system.


Some people are assuming that the parents would like to see the murderers killed... maybe they do, who knows... but you shouldn't assume others share your values. Not everybody is driven by revenge.

No offence taken, and I think I've put what I meant very badly. I suppose what I was trying to say was that as a society we need more than punishment to deal with crime or we are not a society at all.

I see the word revenge being tossed around as if revenge against such barbric and heinous crimes should never be considered. Well I tell you what if I was unforunate enough to be in the shoes of the parents of the students butchered by those evil bastards, I'd want them to suffer EXACTLY the same fate inflicted upon their victims. Yes it's revenge yes it's tit for tat yes it's an eye for an eye and I've no problem with that at all. I'm F**king sick and tired of all the naval gazing that goes on today, we hear so often about the pontification of the liberal bleeding hearts who bang on about the rights of the criminal and F**K the victim, ENOUGH, ENOUGH, ENOUGH. I ain't no F**KING christian, nor do I believe in any other doctrine, but I certainly ain't prepared to turn the other F**KING cheek. Now to all of you who are anti capital punishemnt accept there are more & more people who want it brought back and the numbers are growing. IF THIS MAKES UNCOMRTABLE READING TOO F**KING BAD. Kill the c**ts and have done with them, pieces of garbage that they are. I make no apology for my views.

Absolutely.


There can't be many 40+ somethings who have lived thru' Decades and witnessed the decline of our standards and wonderful Society who would not agree with you.


Most certainly (almost) everyone who lives in a Community, where these Human pieces of filth reside, would endorse your views Atila.


These Guys need to be taken out of Society for ever by whatever means necessary.


I like BBW's idea of a living tomb but would prefer that after the perpetrators got stabbed 200 themselves and, somehow, survived.


"I make no apology for my views".....


Nor should you ever be defensive or apologetic about having them.


Quite frequently those of a more "liberal" persuasion in their 20's/30's have finally had enough by the time they get older and come around more to our way of thinking.

Article 2 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union prohibits the practice of judical execution in time of peace, so however many people in the UK want to reinstate it, it isn't going to happen.

Blood lust solves or redresses nothing.


My father was murdered by terrorists,that they killed them selves offers nothing back to me. Would I want the death penalty.No it does not bring back a dead man. Is society better for it ,No it is a screen, it does not deter people from killing people, violating each other. If it really worked in the places still in it's thrall then why is it still necessary to apply it.


As a society we are tarnished by the death penalty, do we look at the American states that use it as visionary or trapped in a brutal & moral time warp.


The later is true, if you think anything other then ship out and move to one of those places. Put your money where your mouth is.

    • It's Christmas, Mal, I'd like to think admin may be a bit looser at this time of year. Goodwill to all men and all that, even Scousers, the French and some Canadians. Have an easy-peeler, a Morrisons own brand Cinzano and lemonade, a toke on this beauty, listen to my post-dubstep-style mash-up of 'Little Donkey' and Frankie Knuckles' 'Your Love' and let the thread go where it will. We're strangely reverential about the Christmas period in this country. Christmas Day in Spain is a bit different, the big day is 'Kings' Day' on the 6th of January.  I've spent a couple of Christmases in a tiny village in the Sierra Nevada outside Granada with an (English) ex-girlfriend's family and it's exhausting to celebrate both British and Spanish style. You start on Christmas Eve, then Christmas Day, Boxing Day, a village fiesta apropos of nothing to do with Christmas, New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, the neighbouring village's fiesta, and only then the big day of Kings' on the 6th. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone that's posted on the 'Fireworks' thread, I thought is was a reenactmentent of Guernica. Thankfully, Coviran - it's a bit like Spar used to be - do an excellent 'Feliz Navidad' fiesta package of six bottles of local red, six white, 24 bottles of Alhambra beer and an okay-quality Serrano jamon (with stand and knife) for about the price of a decent round in the EDT. One fiesta deal every couple of days works well. Christmas Day in Toronto is like any other day, just  even duller - Sunday-service transport and the  LCBO (Liquor Control Board of Ontario) shop is shut. Those who take their drinking seriously need to plan ahead. They also have a strange custom of going to the pictures on Christmas Day evening, rather than watching 'Oliver!' and trying to fleece your niece for her Christmas cash in a game of Connect Four. It's a bit different in Goa, but brilliant. It was a Portuguese colony, so they go mad on it. It's quite magical. I spent one Christmas Day where, after seeing the previous night's hangover off with a prawn caldine and a bottle of local coconut feni, the tide ebbed away to reveal the most perfect, flat wicket for a game of tape-ball cricket. 25 or so a side, ravers versus locals, I batted in the middle order and was building a solid, if unspectacular, innings until I hit a pull shot of such exquisite timing it still visits me in my dreams, only to be caught at square leg by a little, local lad, bollocks-deep in the surf and wearing a Santa hat. Christmas isn't what it used to be. Keep the parks open!
    • I hope it's ok to use this thread to ask for advice on a separate issue in relation to TJ Medical Practice. A friend of mine who is registered there has recently been diagnosed with a serious long-term condition. He has been struggling to find a good GP at the practice since the departure of Dr Love and I said I would try to find out which of the remaining GPs other patients have found most capable and sympathetic - particularly for the scenario of overseeing ongoing care for a long-term progressive illness. Is there any particular GP that people would recommend?  Very many thanks.
    • I,m not a fan of Gales; but a lot of food serving premises open on Xmas day , so not unusual, worked in catering for nearly 40 years and staff usually get extra pay… My niece who is in her last year of college & wants to go travelling next summer, is waitressing in a restaurant near where she lives on Xmas day & Boxing Day for £20 per hour to boost her travelling fund. Back in the day I worked New Year’s Day 2000, & had my pay bumped to £50 per hour, happy days (wasn’t forced I volunteered)
    • Hardly strange; arcane perhaps. It used to be a common practice in many towns for the swings, roundabouts etc in parks to be chained up by the council on Sundays, so that they didn’t provide a source of reckless pleasure on the sabbath. The outrage that a cake shop should open on Christmas Day reminded me of this. The policy had pretty much died out in England and Wales by the 70’s but is still in force in parts of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland.
