Right to death

[heslopian]

I think he should be given a bed, a reasonable diet and some form of entertainment to stave off madness. That doesn't mean I think we should spend money buying him Jimmy Choo shoes and food from the Savoy. A and C in the reasons you put forth to justify torture are the same. I'm not trying to justify his actions Billy. Of course if we did cut his tongue out he'd have been asking for it, but that doesn't mean we should do it. Think of it how you like but causing intense physical and psychological pain to someone like Brady is revenge; you're doing it to please yourself, not to help anyone. I don't want to live in a world where the authorities can exact such brutality on criminals under the guise of justice. Otherwise where does it end? We’ll end up back in the dark ages where you could be executed for stealing a loaf of bread.
