Cowards like these masked do not deserve to breathe this air.

But then again every story has two sides and I'm sure we the "good guys" have done a lot of pretty ugly stuff too.



Humans are pretty dumb animals. Forget our pride and superiority.

Same here.

Quick bullet to the head is only punishment they deserve.

No. Eye for an eye is fitting here. And I do not care if someone retorts "well, that's just not very Christian of you" or any other tripe of that sort.

You mean like burning their face?

I thought eye for eye too but the boy could have very easily got killed by that and they probably won't learn anything anyhow so I think getting them to continue to the next part of reincarnation cycle is the most sensible and kind thing to do.

 

[Yeeek]

This won't bring anything new to the table but I could see myself torturing those guys with guilty pleasure...

Disgusting!

On a side note, when posting articles, can we at least include the headline in the OP?

Honestly I am really shocked by this attack on a kid. The violence has been brought to a whole new level.

Monstrous.

Find and kill the bastards. And a bullet to the head is far too good. Burn them, burn them good.

I'd also like to see that side of me as well.

So is the goal here to one-up each other with refined ways of killing people in order to prove to ourselves that we're the good guys?

And can't you see the irony in what you're doing?
"these guys have committed something barbaric so I'll kill them in an even more barbaric way so that justice will be done"

If you're so appalled at what they have done, how can you possibly suggest doing exactly the same thing without realizing the hypocrisy and irony?

Let me get this straight, you are so appalled at their actions that you're willing to do it yourself?

Masquerouge, didn't see your post.

The reason we're suggesting these things is that it will deter others in a way the simple and clean DP cannot.

Nope. It doesn't. People were tortured, quartered and butchered in the Middle-Ages, yet people kept doing crimes.

I coudn't finish reading the article sometimes journalist love to paint a gruesome picture...

Its very sad that maynpeople aren't humans rather sick creatures that need to be eliminated.

the boy had it coming. he was most likely a baathist.

 

[silver 2039]

Eugh....that picture actually made me cringe and very few things do that.... that is pretty disgusting.

Guess thats what happens when you have a lawless city and useless government. Its things like this that make me wonder if Saddam was a better alternative.

He was. I would rather them spend money on their palaces then on killing each other.

I think this was just a pre-emptive strike against a future insurgent. Good job Iraqis, fight terror!

Life in prison is a far worse punishment than a quick death.
