WTF is wrong with people?

My niece got married in Southport, lives a few miles up the road and has 2 kids in that age bracket. I don't think they go there regularly, but I'm checking anyway.

We're way past the stage of zero tolerance for knives.

Definitely. Fingers crossed, hope all is well.

Thanks.

They're fine, but some of the victims, including the one who's died, are known to extended family members. Your heart just bleeds for the kids and the effected families.

F**k it. Death penalty. Preferably using an old bullet that'd otherwise be thrown away.

Why should money that can be spent on hospitals and education be wasted paying to hold that piece of sh_t in penitentiary?

Because he's a minor?

Look this kind of stuff is hard Im a death penalty absolutist. You either belive the state shouldn't murder people or you don't. And once you don't it's slippery slope to miscarriages of justice

 

[Amiga500]

Because he's a minor?

Because he should never be let out.

Thresholds need to be higher than usual of course, but when your caught with the literal blood on your hands.

The state already do murder people and they kill (not murder) thousands by their decisions. Pretty naïve to think otherwise.

It seems to be a common theme, any time there is a sad event which rallies a nation together in their disgust and opposition to it, a select group jump on the back of that to cause violence.
