He's got potential to be a good citizen though, put him back in prison for 2 years with some counseling and re-release him. That's what the DUmmies will want to do. Oh he's so young...they'll say...
I say Hang his ass too!

this must be the "rehabilitation" part of his sentence.

looks like it's working pretty well.

Usually in a proper hanging the butt leads the way.

Do you think that when the judge sentenced him to "life in prison" he said....

"There, that should almost hold you until your're old enough to vote!!!"
