Wow that's completely ridiculous.. I could never relish in the idea of killing somebody and I hope she gets maximum sentencing
Why is this so tragic when these children are seeing this shit on TV and think reality isnt REAL.. Human beings really dont know how they are programed to repeat the things, they just do. Sometimes the programing gets all fucked up by what they see on TV.. At these ages 13-15. The mind isnt really capabable of understanding. I dont care how smart you think you are. I was near in my 20s and thought I knew everything about everything. You get dumped in Iraq you soon learn 1/2 your life was really a dream. New things take place, the bridges of reality tighten and you become a mature individual. It takes Responsibility to become Responsible. You can punish a ship captain for sinking a ship cause they do know what they are doing. If a kid somehow got the controls and sunk it, who would you punish? An Adult. You wouldnt punish a kid for sinking the ship when its the adults that are supervising let the kid get the controls. Here you have a child that had no adult supervision. no parenting. If they did, they certainly were paying no attention to what their daughters real life was.. Possibly the little girl was problematic. Only more reason for her to be supervised. The ones that should be punsihed here is the Community and Parents that raised her.
I see your point but at the same time this doesn't happen often enough for it to be something plausible, in other words what you're saying is probably somewhat true but there are definitely other contributing factors way more so than just bad parenting. This girl is fucked in the head, shows no sign of remorse and even enjoyed her morbid experiment. 13-15 is way old enough to know right from wrong, not to say that you're gonna be as smart as you'll ever be at that age but to know that killing someone is a no no at the very least. ....give me a break, this child knew exactly what she was doing.
I read about this this morning , it obvious this child has some serious issues ,what she did was terrible but she needs some serious help .The death penalty, as tempting as it my sound is not the way to go , she needs serious conselling and psychiatric help .Lock her up for ever but an eye for an eye is not the way to go. As Orison said blame the responsible adults in her life for not picking up that child has issues , they should have seen this and done something long before it got this far
If only she's waited to join the military she could have done something similar to this and been thought of as a hero instead of a monster.
I thought I read yesterday the most she can get for this is 10 years...... I hope I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's what it said.......
There are not enough details for me to form an opinion on what I think should happen to her. But I certainly do not think the current system we have based more on revenge then actually solving the problems is effective. Sure it sounds terrible......but it is true at the age of 15 the brain is developing, not to mention for all I know she comes from an abusive fucked up situation but from whats written here I don't know anything about her up-bringing, mental state or anything like that. There are quite a few factors that should be considered but usually aren't by our justice system, and that's with anything not just murder.
Yeah, I hope you're wrong about the 10 years as well. I hate to say it but, I wouldn't be surprised if that's all the rotten little **** got Especially with all the bleed'in heart douchebags out there who seem to be real concerned about her.
An ulterior motive to stop a rabid dog is not necessary other than to get it stopped. Same with a person that cold bloodedly kills an innocent little girl. Or anyone,for that matter. Oh man---what must the parents of that little girl be thinking and feeling? I can't imagine. Same fate as the Manson girls,I say. She's forfeited her right to walk among us.
I don't feel like a douche-bag for thinking all factors should be considered in the sentencing as that certainly does not indicate I think it's ok to murder people. But to each their own.
Sounds terrible? ....It is terrible. You say that there are not enough details for you to form an opinion and yet you still empathize with the little bitch. FACTS should be considered at sentencing, not what may or may not be from fantasy land. That's the kind of shit some of these slim ball attorneys pull. They start pointing fingers at everyone and saying this is the reason the person is like that, and that's the reason...it's really not their fault AWWWW poor them, let's help them and all say a big FUCK YOU to victim and their family.
life sentence? I dont think anyone who hasn't experienced prison can even comprehend what its like. Imagine spending every waking moment in a small room with someone who rapes you. Imagine the prison guards harassing and abusing your rights. Imagine getting beat within an inch of death everyday for the rest of your life. Prison is hell, Nobody should have to go through that. The Death sentence is more humane and I am apposed to it... Murder is vigilante justice in most cases. Anyone who kills without justification deserves medical treatment inside a ward. Instead of neglecting and outcasting the unlawful we should help them. More and more the world is going to shit, i would do something about it. But now, what would be the fun in that? Much more fun to watch it burn.
Oh, what do we have here, another internet forum thread on capitol punishment? I'm sure this one will settle the debate. What bothers me in such discussions are the persons who feel they have the right to take the life of the alleged murderer. They almost always deny a revenge motive and claim that execution makes an example of the second person killed, and this, some how, deters other would-be murderers. Yet, there is no proof of that at all.
She may not be old enough to really think things through but she sure as hell is old enough to know right from wrong. She has lost her right to be a part of society.
