The felon child molesters arguably "needed killin'" as some say --- but what happened to them could happen to any incarcerated person. Most incarcerated persons were not convicted of capital crimes, and none are deserving of being beaten to death by a well-spoken freelance maniac.
We're not North Korea, Turkey or Somalia.
Rather amazing that Free Republic is supposed to be pro-U.S. Constitution; but some will wink at murderous thuggery when it suits them.
Well; if the state would do their job and “legally execute” murderers, child molesters, rapists, drug dealers, traitors, and others deserving the death penalty for their crimes, we wouldn’t need the help of other inmates.
70 years worth of appeals and legal maneuvers just allows these ratbastards to die of old age on the taxpayers dime.
Under the current conditions (particularly here in California) I am willing to accept all the help we can get.
The killer (alleged) should be dealt with as the law prescribes - and prison officials should be taking reasonable measures to prevent this sort of thing.

That's all I was saying (at least somewhat tongue in cheek).

Yes and no. People do get killed in prison for inarguably bad reasons - but the only winking going on here was for killings narrowly targeted based on criteria that do NOT apply to the vast majority of inmates.
I forgot to mention: +1 for the turn of phrase.
