Default How Low Some People Can Get

I wouldn't mind bumping into the trash responsible for this

Nellie Geraghty death: Family appeal for ashes return

Quote:
The family of a widow who died after an apparent mugging have appealed for the return of her late husband's ashes which were stolen during the robbery.
Nellie Geraghty, 79, died in hospital a day after being found with head injuries in Shaw, Greater Manchester.
Police, who have begun a murder inquiry, think she was hurt as she tried to stop her handbag containing the ashes being taken.

Apparently, she was all of five foot high and almost 80. There's a mugging to be proud of. I'm kind of hoping their brethren trash will shame them into coming forward, but I'm not holding my breath.

Low life like the trash who did this should be put out of their misery, when sentencing the judge should be putting a black hanky on his head.

On the other hand nor is there a limit to human righteousness. The NYFD guys who ascended the burning towers on 9-11 for example.

I rather have them in the trash compactor of the garbage truck with broken 2x4's, glass gallon jugs of hydrochloric acid, large chunks of concrete and SLOWLY turn the compactor on......

Bring back impalement, drawn and quartering, iron maiden, stoning, whatever it is as long as its long, drawn out and brutal.

Oh for the love of...

Yes, the guy who did this is scum who deserves a serious punishment. But seriously? Drawing and quartering?

Personally, I rather like the idea of making him spend the rest of his life turning very big rocks into very small rocks. Nothing like dull, endless, pointless drudgery to make somebody regret their stupidity.

Who cares about having him find remorse in what he did. You do something so base, so savage, you earned a base and savage end. You do not deserve dignity or mercy from anyone.

In the joint, he gets three hot and a cot, with a roof over his head. That really deters no one.
