Good News!! Ian Brady is dead!!

[pilninggas]

So to summarise you ^^^

I think I was quite clear.

In any case your summary of my post seems to be longer than my post itself. :eek

Invoking the death sentence in an eye-for-an-eye way is satiate a public baying for blood.
Well who did all of the above for 40 years, the IRA/INLA and their bastard offspring still carrying out 'extrajudicial killings', aka punishment killings [often these days in republican heartlands]:

You seem to be a little selective here.  Or do you approve of the UVF , UDA and UFF.  And how exactly does framing and hanging innocent men help?

Perhaps Brady's mistake was not hiding behind some political BS.

Brady killed for pleasure.  He is a true psychopath.  He did whatever pleased him, whatever fascinated him.  Psychopaths aren’t like ordinary people, they are wired up different. 



Personally, I feel that hanging such people lets them off the hook.  I can’t think of a greater punishment than being locked up for life.  Further I don’t believe in killing, and I certainly don’t believe in the state killing in cold blood.

Make the punishment a hell

Prison should be about rehabilitation, not simply punishment.  However, be clear you cannot rehabilitate psychopath.

Like the IRA, I think the Loyalist Terrorists are scum, totally without justification. A front for drugs and other gangster activity, hiding behind a movement, pretending. I'd say abducting a mother, killing her despite her true pleas of innonence [because Adams didn't want to get locked up] and hiding her body reeks of psycopathic behaviour. It's certainly not a shot accross no mans land or retalatory gunfire.

I don't think prison should be about rehabilitation, not for serious offenders anyway. It should be about getting them off of the streets, so they cant endanger the rest of us and it should be unpleasant. I don't care about the nature of the murderer, i just dont want them anywhere near decent law abiding people. Pandering to killers is all a bit sick. Brady tortured children, his time in prison should have been horrid - the recording of the little girl is the mark of a pair of vile, vile pieces of inhuman filth - utterly unpleasant. We care too much about criminals rights in this country, we need to care about victims. Putting a roof over their heads and feeding them should be how we spend our money. If prisoners have to till the land to feed themselves, in hard labour, bloody good job.
