Their behaviour was sickening and abhorrent but they are not the spawn of the devil they were extremely damaged young CHILDREN who had been abused themselves. These are not excuses it is just a sad fact and hanging children is as abhorrent as what they did!

Just 2 of the many cases found on a simple google search for "killers who kill again after serving a life sentance"
So its not so "unfounded" and proves at least (there are hundreds more) 2 innocent people would still be alive today had these wonderfully reformed young men served (at leat) the sentance they were given at trial.
How many more times must the "prison reforms people" argument fail before we start giving a thought to the REAL victims of crime?
Yet increbibly, it is the deluded libral thinking who are most genuinely shocked when equally deluded groups of vigilantes go out to seek justice of there own.
Whats so wrong with prison being a punishment and a place where one spends 50 years (minimum) for a crime such as murder?
In the above cases the 2 people not getting killed by "lifers" are going to be happier, and on the other hand your going to feel easier knowing that the feformation of these poor mistaken charectors is going to take 35 years longer to achieve better results, what harm could that do?
Oh, and to say the hanging of the James Bulger killers is "as abhorent as what they did" is no fact.
Hanging perpertrators of muder would be a punishment for a crime worthy of such severity.
On the other hand torturing a 2 year old and slowly strangling what little life he had left at the time all because he strayed away from his mother whilst she was being served in a shop is a punishment only the "spawn of the devil" who contemplate, if not i dread to think what is.

These are not children. 10 year old minds are not fully formed enough to be pathological. If someone is deemed to be a psychopath and incapable of redemption they should stay in prison I agree there. These boys didnt fall in to that category.
