I was watching a film today called "a Time to kill" and this is basically the situation

In 1960s America, in a black community, a young 9 year old black girl is walking home after buying groceries for her family. Two White men in their 20s come up to the girl and kidnap her. The take her to a field, tie her to a tree and both rape her numerous times. They then use her as a target, chucking FULL beer cans at her, so hard that it cuts her skin to the bone. They then make a rope into a noose and try to hang her. The Noose chokes her but the branch of the tree breaks. So they Urinate on her. They then take the girl in the ruck to a bridge, 30 foot from the floor. The Dangle the naked young girl, covered in Blood, urine and Semen, and throw her off of the Bridge and leave her for dead. The girl survives and the men run away. When the men are found, everybody says they will probably go free or go to jail for only about 3 weeks, because they are white. The Father of the girl, cannot stand the fact that they may get away with what they did to his daughter. He grabs a gun and at the court hearing, Shoots them Both in the head. He is then fighting for freedom and the chance to escape the death penalty

Do you think this man should get the death sentence, Or Even Prison? Do you think that he should be punished for what he did to the two men even though he was only protecting his daughter?

I Suggest you watch this film because it is actaully an amazing film. It has some violence, especially with the Ku Klux Klan killing people trying to free him

So, What do you think?
