Lets kill them. That'll show everyone what a powerful country we are, and how acts like this won't be tolerated. Oh, actually it won't - it'll just placate some weird blood lust in us and we'll all pretend that justice has been served.

I'll never understand why murder, if it's done for revenge, is seen as acceptable.

Or... we could send them to prison and keep them warm and comfortable at our own expense for the rest of their lives. Then some hand-wringing liberals who are already worrying about the wellbeing of this pair of *******ers, use the Human Rights Act to ensure they aren't mistreated. They'll be ensured access to books and education, religious freedom, a special diet fed to them in three square meals a day, medical treatment, recreation, protection from other prisoners and a pretty cushy time for the rest of their pathetic lives considering what they did to that young soldier and his family.

Oh no wait... that's what we've done.

Hang them, stop them existing in this world. I don't think that's blood-lust or revenge, I think that's justice - the kind of justice they themselves would recognise.

I hope they're killed in prison

[Kizzy]

Well that's not an option is it? we can only hand down certain sentences in this country... It's a shame but thats how it is.

[Livia]

Yes.... as I said yesterday. At length.

Ideally they should be hanged, like ideally the bloke who punched the pedestrian should have got a longer sentence. I am just voicing my opinion.

In a civilized society you set in place provisos to ensure against vigilantism and savagery, it's called the law.
You cant pick and choose who is entitled to human rights, everyone is regardless of who they are or what they have done.
The removal of civil liberty is the highest punishment we have, it's never going to please all the people all the time is it? I was disappointed at the lenient sentencing handed down for the manslaughter of the vulnerable adult yesterday, and it seems many are unhappy with the whole life term today.

Lee Rigby's partner was on 'this morning' and she specifically stated that executing them would have been giving them exactly what they wanted.

Just thought I would mention that.

Yeah a quote from her from an interview she did thats in the Sun today:

"They wanted to die. They wanted to become martyrs. They said they wanted to be ransomed back to their own people or be killed. They will be denied that in jail, where they will be spending the rest of their days. They dont deserve anything less. If you kill them or ransom them off thats what they want - thats not justice for Lee. They need to be locked up forever because that's what they didnt want. Thats the only thing that gives me comfort"

Let them rot in prison and be forgotten , they wanted to be martyrs and now they'll be forgotten losers. Killing them would have just given them what they wanted.

As for the whole 'we're paying to keep them alive' stuff, it costs more to execute someone then it does to keep them alive.

Okay, facebook have some questions to answer on this, no doubt at all, I hate facebook anyway but in the end facebook cannot be the scapegoat here.

We have security forces that should always be on the lookout for things like this,face book are not security forces, I am just so furious still that Lee Rigby lost his life in this brutal way in his own country.
I really hope soldiers are more looked out for now, this has gone on from last year when this tragic cruel murder took place.

I do find it astonishing that no one else on facebook, if they read this intent to kill a soldier,didn;t alert some authority to it and if anyone did, then why wasn't more done.
Also since this vile pair of things were known and even under suspicion, why weren't they kept under surveillance too.
It seems as in many things ike this, results of what has been concluded, raise more questions than any it answers.

I still can feel really physically sick when I think of what happened to Lee Rigby and my fury at his barbaric murderers just hasn't abated at all.

[lostalex]

is this the cop that killed a black guy that lead to the London riots?

[Ninastar]

Well the woman who was beheaded in public in america a month or so back, had something similar to this...

The man who beheaded her, posted anti-american things all over his facebook... apparently some of it was really violent too...

Surely facebook should be able to see what is posted on their website?

These two f'cks need strapping to the next two bombs bound for ISIS in Iraq.

Remember this was at the time not a crime based on religious intolerance, it was a symbolic act designed to raise awareness of the grievances they had towards British foreign policy.
It is a predominantly political agenda that is moving light years away from religion at breakneck speed.

These are not inherently evil people, these are radicalised people who have been indoctrinated to believe that brutality and murder are a way of thrusting their ideologies into public consciousness by means of force.
These individuals are perceived to be 100% at fault, they delivered the act personally but the rot at source that is feeding poison is also to blame.

One issue I have with the video however is it throws up another question, during the conversation with the bomb maker it is suggested that he is unaware that the British were against the war; However there have been suicide bombers and radicals from Britain.. Surely they know as a nation we were not 100% behind our government in the decision to go to war?
