WTF is wrong with Society?

Unbelieveable

"State of mind" and "alcohol" are all factors cited but somewhere there's room for just plain "evil" as well.

So scary to think of the society we live in. Think we all continue our lives in denial of what people are actually capable of. I think we have to other wise no one would ever leave their homes.

The poor lad, I am suprised too that he survived.

And how did it take the jury two and a half hours???

Words fail me. For once.

Yeah but put it into context, theres nearly 60 million people living in the british isles,and most of get on with each other, this is only shocking because it doesnt happen all the time.imho of course.

Terrible. Almost incomprehensible.

That's manchester though, stabbings are part of going to work, in between your car windows being broken and your bike nicked.

I wonder how long these sickos will serve.

Chorley in Lancashire mate! Nearer Timwilky than me.

Oh yeah, and they won't serve anything like long enough, but that would just start another huge debate about sentencing and other options available to the court, what with the prison population burgeoning and new "Super Prisons" being debated.

The time is ripe for well organised and funded vigilante groups to start to impart punishments more fitting of the crime. Evil is not wide spread,but when it does take place it seems ever more vicious and sickening.

Beyond the liberal laws of the land my suggestion might be. But what if the parents of a randomly stabbed son or daughter, raped daughter, victimised or abused family member or anyone related to a person that has simply suffered needlessly at the hands of others, knew that a particular service offering severe retribution was available to them? Eye for an eye? Let the puishment fit the crime?

Moral issues abound here but I suggest that what I mention would be well received by a large number of people.

Discuss.
