Here's hoping they leave jail in 2016 with rectums the size of dinner plates.

I had no idea your brother was shot, fatty:(
Good news, Fatty lad.
I can testify that it ain't no fun being shot. I still have three holes in me, all to the rear, naturally - and while they make for a good conversation piece at parties (when my tweeds are more often than not around my ankles), they remain a hellish reminder of the brutalities of conflict, and slighted, enraged husbands alike.

they will be out in about 4,5 or 6 years, they never serve the full sentence anymore, life time means 6 months now, short life that is :(

I think they should have been shot in the same way as your brother. In my opinion, the punishment should be the same as the crime.

Well to be perfectly honest my brother's no angel and if the punishment is going to be the same as the crime, Pete can look forward to having his nose and left ear bitten off when his case comes up next month.

Are you for the death penalty? I am so on the fence with this issue. Sometimes when I hear of heinous crimes towards children, rape, etc. I want so bad for the perpitraitor to be given the death penalty. But then I wonder if that will make anything any better bc its obvious that people still commit crimes and are not deterred by the death penalty. Then I wonder what if there isn't full proof evidence that this person actually commited this crime yet they are put to death? So I'm here and there.

I personally think rotting in a cell and more or less thinking about what they've done - how can they not? - for the rest of their lives is better punishment than putting them to death.
"In my opinion, the punishment should be the same as the crime."
- this in effect would make you as bad as the criminal. If somsone tortures an 'innocent' person, would that give 'the law' the right to torture them in return? Both the criminal and the law are then torturers, the only difference being they have different justifications for their act.
Think about what you wrote, it really doesn't make any sense.

Yes it does. The main factor which determines "badness," as you put it, is motive and reasoning - the "why," as opposed to the "what." Justifications are everything. This is, for instance, why we have varying degrees of punishment for what results in a person's death.
It is clear to anyone that "premeditated intent to kill" is worse than simply "intent to kill," or "depraved indifference to human life," which are both clearly worse than "wrecklessness."
