    I am pretty conflicted when it comes to the death penalty. I struggle to find wether there is a place in civilized society for death as punishment. Then a case like this comes along and the only thought that pops into my head, besides grief for the family and utter contempt for the perpitrators, is those motherfuckers deserve what they dished out. Many on here may say that this makes me no better than these animals but I don't care. They brutally and sadistacly tortured these two people for nothing more than their warped entertainment and I see no redeeming human quality in them to justify why they should be spared the same fate as their victims.

    You're absolutely right. As a person, I would find satisfaction in the execution - painful execution - of these wastes of flesh and bone. I'd even pull the trigger myself.

    But I'm against the death penalty. Even here. I don't feel it right to use the State to fulfill my own sense of vengence.

    I acutally did hear about this some short time ago...and was outraged.

    I have no idea how people can become monsters like this, you know to see the pictures of the victims you cannot help but feel so horrible what they had to have gone through before finally meeting death.

    It is the pictures of the victims and not the criminals that is hard for me to look at. The criminals do not deserve my time thinking about them, all the best to the victims families.

    Tragic, sick, twisted, and disturbing.

    I say hang the fuckers...put it on pay per view...and give the proceeds to the families...

    I do agree, it's interesting that this has not received more coverage...sadly, I agree, if the assailants were white and victims were black, this would have been on every news outlet...

    You are just as twisted if you would pay to watch someone die.

    Sorry I do not feel comfort in watching people die.

    It does nothing to change the past.

    Your welcome.

    I understand that executing these people won't bring anyone back or change the past... what punishment does...?

    if they truly committed the crimes they are accused of, I personally see no problem with them dying....but that's just me....I happen to think that sometimes, some people are too far gone, and don't deserve to live based on crimes like this...

    again, that's just me...

    But as we all know, there are monsters like these monsters; who come in every color, religion and ethnicity that exists- on this planet.

    No human group is void of these type of monsters.

    Hey man I totally respect your opinion...I am just opposite in the thought with capital punishment and believe me when you read stories as the one posted you questions your beliefs on the matter.....I just believe that to take away their life is an easy way out...prision for life in maximum security for 70 years or till they die is punishment enough for them to think about what they did and morei mportantly they can think each and every day what they will no longer experience from the real world.....that to me is punishment of the worst kind....a quick execution does not punish them it simply takes them away from a life of nothing....a life of nothing in a cell is way more scary and forbidding than a quick lethal needle in the arm.....but that is just my opinion....i do not think the law should kill as punishment it serves the wrong message....

    But once again I must say that I have internal conflict everytime I read of something heinous and I do question my beliefs each and everytime and I do believe that is also very important.

    No, not necessarily. I can't copy and paste from snopes, for some reason, but the bottom of the page offers some insight (so I'll type it up):

    "Some commentators have made much of the fact that the buld of the news reportage about the murders has been local, while the case has received little or no national coverage by major news outlets - a phenomenon attributed to the supposedly biased news media loath to report black on white crime.

    However, the notion that every major news outlet in the U.S. (all of them competitive, profit-making businesses) has conspired to ignore what would otherwise be a compelling national story is rather implausible. A more rational explanation might be found in the sober observation that murders - even decidedly horrific murders - are unfortunately too frequent an occurrence in the U.S. for all of them to garner national attention. <<snip>>

    And, of course, the fact that the victims were white and the (presumed) killer black didn't stop the O.J. Simpson murder trial from becoming the most media-covered event in the history of jurisprudence."

    In other words, just because the Duke case was a load of crap doesn't mean that there was a conspiracy to cover this one up. Was there even evidence, beyond the actual skin colors of the individuals involved, that this was a racially motivated crime - or was it just evil?

    Oh, I'm not defending anyone here, just stating a fact.

    Believe me, I am very much in the camp that is sick of all this overly-PC and biased crap!

    And don't get me started on those parasitical worms.....Sharpton and Jackson!

    Whenever I hear a case of phedophiles I understand the rage you experienced....it is tough believing in your own morality sometimes therefore the questioning of it is very important.
