re: #387 MandyManners

The court went along with it because it’s staffed by barbarians.

I agree: barbarism in the name of barbarism.
It’s human to want “vengeance”. Me I prefer cold, calculated PUNISHMENT. If an atrocity is committed in the name of “justice” it is still an atrocity. Civilization must be better than the savages that commit savage acts and punish them while keeping them from doing so again. (Better to put someone in a cell for 40 years than give them an easy out like the death penalty. I do believe in the death penalty in any case where the crime was premeditated and well witnessed with accompanying forensic evidence. Lots of science and testimony and NO appeals)
