That's fucking horrifying! I witnessed some pretty cruel acts by teens when I was growing up but nothing even close to that kind of behavior.

If I was that boys father, I would hope these boys got off scott free, no jail time at all


...so I could burn those little bastards myself and feed their flesh to their parents without them even knowing, then reveal to them what happened. Then I would get the electric chair. Then I would die. The end

This is the type of person I am.

If someone was proven to and convicted of setting a brush fire that destroys homes, not only should the convicted get jail time, they should be forced to watch someone who lost their home in the fire set fire to their house. Why should they have a place to stay and all of their belongings while other innocent people lost theirs in an unnecessary blaze?

If you kill someone while driving drunk, you should get the death penalty. You took an innocent life; why should you live?

Maybe the dickwads in the story should be set on fire so they know how it feels?

These little monsters should have been more than maced by an adult before they committed such an atrocity on someone their own age. If it was your kid that got slashed and set on fire, you'd pray to God that someone put them in their place long before they'd get the opportunity to pull this type of shit.

Anyone who commits violence against another except in self defense should be punished for it, plain and simple.

Someone who sets someone on fire at any age should simply be locked away, forever, to live out their existence in isolation.

To quote a US district judge's comments after the sentencing of Moussaoui "When this proceeding is over, everyone in this courtroom is free to go any place they want... see the sun... hear the birds. You will spend the rest of your life in a supermax prison... To paraphrase the poet T.S. Eliot, you will die with a whimper. You will never again get a chance to speak."

There is no other way to deal with people who would intentionally do such things, short of an execution.

Amen. Chop off the hand of thieves, cut out the tongues of perjurers. Televise it! It's time we turned back the clock and administered good ole' Bible justice. Eye for an eye!

Public torture & executions leads to mass hysteria and is responsible for things such as the Salem Witch Trials and the French Reign of Terror. Nothing good ever comes from it.

Lol, sorry- humor, like popular culture, is not my strongest point. It's quirky and usually requires translations.

Actually your examples dont apply here. It both cases it can be argued it was hysteria that led to the public torture and executions, and not the other way around as you suggest.

Also, for example, removing a perpetrators genitals for having raped someone would not be considered torture by many, as much as justice. And I am not sure how that would lead to mass hysteria. The same for removing the hand of a serial thief. Send that little fella back to his gang instead of jail and lets see how many others are willing to take the risk. One could argue he could only steal half as much. Let him be the example to everyone there are consequences for your crimes. Think of the money we would save by not having to incarcerate the millions of petty thieves and hoodlums in this country.
