Pretty sad state of affairs when we have to rely on prisoners to dispense justice because our government won’t.

Does anyone else believe that everytime Hollywood makes a movie that centers attention on these lowlifes and porteays them as sexy, handsome desperados, it only encourages more unstable people to perfom vile acts?

GRRRREAT news. Thanks for posting. Justice is best served at the point of attack if the tables can be turned. In lieu of that scenario...this works too.

R.I.P. innocent victims.

Point taken. But in the end, a true and just God will mete out the correct and appropriate amount of justice.

For those who commit these horrible crimes, and for those who allow it.
