I really think he should be executed in public.

He will never be "fixed", he's beyond repair, he must be done away with.

But a public execution might serve two purposes, it would let any other pervs out there know we are not sh*tting around anymore, it might prevent another story like this.

And maybe, just maybe, it might "fix" us up a bit.

I am unspeakably angry about it. None of the lawyers would ever sue anybody involved, they're way too busy going after doctors, who sometimes make honest mistakes.

My beautiful wife did a search for "sexual predators" on the state website. We have nine within 3 miles from our home. And within a 1000 yards of most schools. The logic of the liberal elite escapes me. How can allowing these scum to live close to children helps them in their rehab really pisses me off. And I'm equally if not more angry than you. My hometown died this week.

Whether the execution itself is in public or not is not as important an issue as whether it happens quickly, IMO.

In these cases where the trial itself is delayed until the 12th of never and then appeals drag out for another 15-20 years, the deterrent effect is so diluted as to be non-existent. Those who hear about the execution have only dim memories of the crime, if any at all.

If justice were swift, I think the death penalty would have much more of a deterrent effect. And it would be much better for grieving families, too.
