it should be up to them...solely

or am i out of my mind & cruel? eye for an eye works, not in all cases but in some. i still am praying someone somewhere blows his head off

Well, luckily that's not the kind of law we have here. We live in a society where violent torture is illegal (let's not get into the Guantanamo Bay type of discussion ), and that keeps us civilized, and living where people aren't lynched in the streets.

You'd think, but it doesn't seem to make other societies that still do shit like this any better (torture or lynch people) .... quite the opposite. Plus, studies have shown that deterrents don't work.

a monster should die by the hands of the people or person they abused. simple mathematics, the common law of physics & the universe. makes all the sense in the world we live in

There is absolutely nothing in history or current times that suggests that would do anything but harm to our society (and nothing suggesting that it would actually help victims either). I understand that people are vengeful beings, but that doesn't mean that it's the right thing to do.
