But
in the end even at 14 I was still an arsehole. I, with 4 friends,
literally destroyed a primary school we broke into. Every computer,
display etc. we caused £8,000 worth of damage. Why? Because it was fun.
In our minds at the time, well it will get fixed and the little kids get
extra time off school when it is fixed. Win/win! We didn't think about
the kids education or the hard work and money that went into the
displays and computer equipment and what it could do to those kids to
have shitty replacement equipment. We simply weren't mature enough to
think along those lines.
The nation has always been enraged by
this murder and rightly so, but to let that rage, and shock and anger
blind us to the fact that this was perpetrated by two seriously fucked
up little shits, to let out hopeless rage lead us to lash out and call
for some kids to be executed.... well, how are we any better than them?
If
they commit further crimes during adulthood then deal with them the
same as you deal with any case of repeat sexual offenders, put them in
jail for longer, very long. As far as I know Venebles has offended
seriously time and again, but I don't think Robert Thompson has.... It's
all down to personality, whether they can get over it or if they will
go back to crime, whether they are just a 'bad egg' and would always
have been a criminal, but just because the mother of the victim is upset
does not make it right that two children should be murdered, every
victims family is upset. If we let them decide, then people guilty of
calling their gay son a faggot would probably be put to death too. We
must be rational in how these things are dealt with. |
