What to do with the colorado theater shooter

I hate to say this but I agree with AspieRogue. It's not about getting inside his head, it's about objectively treating him the way he deserves to be treated. If you show him compassion you are enabling him.

If you want to pour your empathy anywhere, your time will be much better spent directing it towards the real victims. Anything else is a complete and utter waste of time unless you are his defense lawyer.

Knowledge is not everything in this world.

perhaps it has nothing to do with empathy but basic human decency,

i know it sounds cliche but there is a reason for the asying "stooping to his level"

We need to waste that dick!

Death penalty FTW!! !

And not just because I'm from Texas either.

This is for the Netherlands. Additional note: look at the total amount of homicides declining. You're making yourself look rather ridiculous, even for a troll, but I suppose that's your idea of fun.

Saudi Arabia, despite a more repressive culture which inevitably means there will be less mention of the subject, is not that different in terms of homicide rate. Slightly higher in some years. Additionally, your knowledge of the world around you is extremely limited if you thought Turkey had public executions while Turkey hasn't had executions at all for almost thirty years, and has formally abolished it eight years ago. But you're forgiven, my son. Now go forth and sow flowers.



Wrong again. My brother, I'm wondering if you know anything at all. Homicide rate is not the total amount of homicides, but the amount of homicides per 100,000 people. That means most countries can be compared relatively accurately. And according to that comparison, we're doing a lot better than the United States.



I'll have to hand this one to you - mainly because I didn't deny those things at all. In fact, homogeneity of the population is a very good thing. The reason we're in a little situation here at the moment is because we've dragged half of the Maghreb and much of islamic Africa and Asia here by now. The social welfare thing has nothing to do with capital punishment, and I'm glad you see it works.



Of course - that's what happens if you import millions of people from all of the world's sectarian conflict zones and religiously-fundamentalist parts of Africa, put them in a neighbourhood where they can do almost anything they want, and look surprised when they say in court that it was alright and not that illegal to rape underage girls because of the way they behaved.

Well then Tim, I think you should help foot the bill.



HDM: What works in your country is not going to work in mine. I will admit that I don't know much about crime stats in the Netherlands, nor do I particularly care. But in a country as large, diverse, and economically stratified as the USofA, showing mercy and compassion to violent criminals has only served to embolden them and does nothing to reduce this kind of criminal behavior.

I recommend death by torture.

thanks.. like ... REALLY?

Hey, if some java the hutt, five years unwashed greese lady blew up a school bus, how would you feel recieveing this thread?
"I hope you get raped or killed in the process..." isn't as old as the sun or anything.

What is the point? The idea is to make sure Holmes never is loose in society again.

Is vengence not a good enough reason?

It complicates a simple task. Keep that goof-ball from doing it again. Inflicting pain is irrelevant.

ruveyn

Inflicting pain is totally relevant if you want some vengence.

He didn't say he wanted vengeance.

He should.

Don't worry wee lad, your secret is safe with me

We don't even know that he was mentally ill.....I mean if he's so mentally ill how the hell did he manage to go through life showing no signs of it, plan this all out at length and go legally buy guns. If he had some severe mental illness its likely he would not have even been able to buy the gun.

Well the human reaction is 'that bastard killed people so he should be killed' but will that actually solve the problem or prevent it from happening again? It's an utter waste of time to fantasize about the terrible ways in which the man may be treated or killed, at least in my opinion. But I understand why people think that way...anger is a typical reaction to these things.
