Does the Tower of London still have all the fun torture machinery it used to have back in its "prime" ?

It is a shame us civilized western nations do not embrace the same methods the heathens do, then it would be called war crimes. We should start sawing thier heads off with rusty knives and putting it on liveleak, like they do.


Mantra: It's only war crimes when it comes to infidels defending themselves, if a Muslim does it, it is right, just and holy.

I drew a picture of muhammaed, I drew him with a phallus in his mouth, come get some! *warface*

You cannot offend them, or they riot worldwide, by far the most intolerant people I ever seen.

Religion of peace my ass.

edit: Muslims are the middle eastern version of the Westborough Baptist Church, so this is more about religion in general and not any specific denomination.

Yet they still deny the charge of murder :doh:

Killer of UK Vet trial starts
 

During testimony, this cold blooded killer, admitted he was involved in the murder, and described how he ran this poor man down with his car, then got out and attacked the still concious soldier with a meat cleaver, hacking away at his throat until he was dead. He went on to explain how he loves Al Qaeda, and conciders them his brothers.

I hope the authorities don't lock him up for life, execute him the same way he did to the poor soldier. He desrves as much!:mad:

I hope and presume him and his co defendant get a full life term and that full life term is hard for them, they will have an awful long time to dream about the martyrdom they craved.
There were some shocking scenes on tv when this happened, Lee Rigby was a off duty serving british soldier, a drummer in the royal regiment of fusiliers.

Threads merged.

Thanks Jim for merging the threads. If it didn't cost the British taxpayers so much money, I would love to see them in solirary, no tv, no letters from home, no visitations by anyone! Let them go insane in their own cells. They want to die as martyrs, but let them go crazy all alone in a cell.

I'm going to throw out a question, one that's been lurking on my mind for a while now, it's not a very popular question, but it's one that does, in my opinion anyway, need asking.

Aside from the method of killing and location, what is the difference between the killing of Lee Rigby, and the killing of the injured un-named insurgent shot by Royal Marine Sergeant Blackman?

This is by no means condoning either act, but I see a lot of people campaigning for Sgt. Blackman to either have his sentence reduced or removed completely, and yet the same sort of campaign does not occur to the two men who are currently in court. Naturally, I would be rather surprised if anyone in the UK took up their cause, most of the people who would publically do so are currently in Syria, the Khyber pass, or somewhere in Northern Africa.

Just a question to ponder, and reply in a non-emotional way if people are able.

None.

EDIT: Actually, there is a difference. Lee Rigby hadn't been trying to kill his attackers.

Strangely, German troops who allegedly commited war crimes in WWII got a similar defense to Sergeant Blackman from the British public on a Daily Mail article...

Since they claim they are soldiers they are covered by the same laws.
So that's murder as their victim was unarmed and incapacitated.
Then there is the mutilation of the dead body which is another war crime.

As for why some people will condemn the one and not the other.
Currently on this forum you have Haplo attempting the condemn actions which he has previously gone to great lengths to defend.
Its just the way some people are, their condemnation or support for actions are entirely dependant on who is doing the action and not the act itself.

No problem and yeah, that would work for me as well.

At last...someone has woken up to the smell of the coffee.

The men accused of killing soldier Lee Rigby set out to cause "carnage", a court has heard.

Pretty clear steer on where this will end up. As it should. I reckon protective custody for a very long time will be the outcome.

Most definitely 'soap on a rope' :)

Before the verdict is announced...I wish I was as sure of winning the lottery come Saturday.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-25448658

I'm sure you won't win it if you don't have a ticket.

Guilty - no defence whatsoever. Just awaiting sentencing now which if Marine A got life that prolly means they'll get just ten years. :/\\!!

Took just 90 minutes for the jury to reach their verdict.

Hopefully life in real terms.

By rights the judge should be now putting a black hanky chief on his head.

"Hanky chief"? :hmmm:
