Pretty ******ing barbaric is right. But I'm referring to what they did not what some posters said they'd like to do.
My personal belief is that they should be taken outside and shot in the head. No fuss, no ritual, no bills for their care for the rest of their lives. As far as I'm concerned they threw back my concern for their welfare when they did what they did.

Well I break a lot of hearts naturally. It's what I do - so don't think you're special!
How many atrocities have they actually committed on our streets though? We kill more of our own people through poverty than any islamic terrorist has ever managed either alone or combined. We're so appalling blinkered by the latest shiny news item where everyone can join together in mutual rage, that we fail to see just how equally bad we can be.
I understand that most people would just want to put a bullet in their heads, but you're all wrong. There is no middle ground on this where I'm concerned. Human rights are human rights and need to be fought for and protected for everyone. Yes, even the most despicable kind of person we can all imagine.
It's weird, because all I'm actually advocating is that we don't either murder or torture them. Who'd have known that would ever be a disagreeable statement?
