its like what I see on facebook- I always see pics that say "bring back hanging" etc and then same people share "white and proud say no to sharia law"... Some of these trashy people would probably like sharia law if it was a "white" law....
Wouldn't worry about this bs if I were you. There's enough of the hang 'em high crowd on here. They remind me of Monty Python's four Yorkshiremen: "Rippin' 'is arms off an shovin' up 'is ass is too good for him, Obediah. How can you stop shopliftin' if you treat 'em wi' kid gloves" ... That kind of thing .... it's just noise. And they seem to compete. Who can come up with the cruelest punishment? However inept and stoopid our politicians are, they ain't gonna bring back torture and hanging, drawing and quartering. Fortunately, I live in a country where a Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees that I am protected from "cruel and unusual punishment." Those same hang 'em high guys also seem to be the ones who talk of "human rights" and "civil rights" as if they were obscenities. When the ACLU talks of the civil right of the Boston bomber to have his Miranda rights, they are not thinking of him so much as the other 326,842,791 Americans (that's a guess, by the way) But rather than dwelling on the punishments in Sharia law, and they are cruel and unusual enough, think of the crimes. Blasphemy! Gimme a break, eh. And women facing trial and punishment for the heinous crime of being the victim of a gang rape.
Whatever. There's a "clear and present danger" ... And our politicians have a choice: Do they want to line up behind Chamberlain, or behind Churchill? For me, it's a no brainer.
Aye Rob, I've seen this clip before, not the sharpest tool in the box. Having said that thought the character shown is a prime example of how the system has failed the British people.

Didn't realise there was a system that could save Neanderthals like that Dave

A functioning & competent education service would be a start, also a society where the family unit, respect & discipline are the front line & focal point.
Just read that Tsarnaev is being treated at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. There's just gotta be an irony in there somewhere. That's cruel and unusual punishment.
i suppose they really had to find a hospital that his victims arnt recovering in with their families visiting
although personally id have put him on the same ward and left him to the victims families

You mean like in the good old days when we were growing up Dave, when Kids respected their parents, teachers and the police, sadly this doesn't seem to exist today

Somehow I have slightly different memories to you Jay, back then there were what our parents called bad un's, lads that were always in trouble, fighting, stealing, generally making hell for the local community.
Borstals were popular back then, but, didn't seem to work, because the bad un's of today all seem to be directly descended from the bad un's of yesterday.

I was relating to how I was brought up Less, think there are divvy's in every era, its just that their behavior is reported more in the media these days than when we were young
