Hi June, I understand what your saying. and I would have agreed with you at one time. But today murder is becoming a pass time with some people . There are murders nearly every day in the big city's including Liverpool. Proberllly mostly gang related. The other day in Stockport next to Manchester two men shot a man in the street in the middle of the afternoon in broad daylight and then stabbed him several times. Then they roughly cut his head off and place it a few yards away from his torso. Then they casually poured petrol over his torso and set it alight. The police have caught the two men that did it. Do you think they will see the erra of their ways. I doubt it. June, that kind of killing is normal now. There has been five murders in the manchester area in the last week. Would you like to slap them on their hands and say naughty boys and feed and shelter them till they come out again and proberly do the same again. No thank you. Put them to sleep and let us be able to walk the streets again without having to look over your shoulders all the time. Sorry but that's my opinion now. Put them to sleep and let us feel safe again. Malcolm. Well, I don't agree with the death penalty, but I do think that there should be a stronger form of punishment for those who commit murders, and should be made to face the error of their ways. Putting them to death is only taking them away from what they have done, but if they were to face their crime, and suffer the consequences by some other form of punishment, such as hard labour, or being put to menial tasks, and facing the people against whom these crimes were committed, I think that may prove more effective. from June. ----- No virus found in this message.
