I bet it all came down to jealousy.
What a bloody shame. I'm glad they got sent down for lengthy sentences.
Also, I don't know much about this case, but the mother may have perverted the course of justice or something.
Yeh the 2 daughters and their boyfriends (?) got sent down for murder whilst the mother did get sent down for perverting the course of justice.Quote:

It is proven that a life in jail is worse than the death penalty as they sit in a small cell rotting away.
Does that school of thought also apply to abortion? I assume you are against all abortions then yes on the basis of all unborns being innocent?Quote:

Abortion is different. Some class it as murder, some don't. This topic is about what we will all class as murder.Quote:

I haven't read into the Ian Huntley story, but if he has been allowed any kind of pleasure inside the prison, they should be ashamed.
And lastly, most of those who back to prison go back in for short term. They see the gain from their crime as being greater than the risk. They know they risk going back in for a short while so its worth it for them. Unless you are saying they should face the death penalty too then for commiting small crimes including fraud. In which case lets give the death penalty to all shop lifters too, including most kids to stop people doing it again :rolleyes:. I am on about those who get a long-term sentence.
I loo at it this way: Who are we to kill others? Society is punishing the person for taking someones life. We have no right to kill them back.
If my kids killed my wife, they would be lucky to be alive themselves :rolleyes:Quote:
