What’s worse, beating the kid to death or naming him Ryon?
Snarky Kong, that post was too snarky for words.
ANYONE who kills a child should be killed. Period.
But… it was in words?
My thoughts on beating 7-year-olds to death are still “evolving”.
Under any and all circumstances? I feel like exercising my “goofy hypothetical” muscles.
I need to learn more about this story before I can form an opinion on whether or not the beating to death of a 6 year old child was justified.
Yeah, that kind of thinking is exactly how Kid-Hitler survived the night of long safety-scissors.
There should be a law against it.
But, what if killer was a child? Question mark. Then, comma, the executioner also has to be killed. Period. I suppose it can end there, as long as the executioner is an adult… Ellipsis.
Man, you really have the correct user name.
“…and on the other side of this issue we’ve invited Thorolf Ragnursson, president of the Viking Society for Elimination of Unwanted Children, to the program tonight. Good evening, Thorolf.”
“Loki be praised.”
“Now tell me, what are the potential positives in this case?”
“The child will not grow old, perhaps to bring shame on his elders. And winter is coming, when there shall be less food for everyone. One less mouth to feed.”
“Isn’t it upsetting that he was killed by his stepfather?”
“Better to have been done by a family member, than to start a blood feud between families. Some killing is fine. But too much killing angers the gods. Crops cannot be watered with blood.”
“Thank you for your time her tonight, Thorolf.”
“May your knives be sharp.”
I suppose that anytime a child kills himself, justice was done.
You know, when anyone says “there oughta be a law…” there probably oughtn’t be.
I think he’s got a point.
I agree with this sentiment, but would limit it to any adult, and they have to deliberately intend to (or at least intend serious harm).
I don’t see this as punitive so much as if you’ll kill a kid then you just need to go. Some people are just wrong inside and they need not to exist in this world anymore. Not so much “that man deserves to die” as “we need a world without people like that guy.”
No I don’t know where I’d draw the line on adulthood, nor on how fucked up someone has to be to need to be removed. As far as I’m concerned, anyone who’ll kill another person for profit or kicks (sociopaths & psychopaths) need to go, and anyone who’d kill a kid in a crime of passion needs to go too.
Yeah, but…kids today, you know?
Kill them all and let God sort them out…am I right?
No need. Just fall back on the capital punishment is WRONG, always and everywhere fact.
Seriously, Annie-Xmas, I’ve been trying to get this fact into Qin’s head since he was Curtis. This sort of thing is NOT helpful.
Absolutely. They should be suffocated, like the spare heirs to the Ottoman Empire.
