Its not justice to cruelly torture someone for their crimes, besides who decides how deserving a crime is? If you steal do we cut your hand off? If you rape do you proceed to cut off your genitals and then leave you to be publically stoned? Or leave you to the dogs? Is it going to be you to decide who deserves what punishment? That sounds like a fantastic form a goverment.
I would have added more, but I feel like talking to my girlfriend so i'm going to split.

I never said it should be me who decides these things. This is what I believe. If I WERE in a position of power and was allowed to pass a sentence on these people, you better believe I'd send them to the same hell they caused.
You and me have two different ideas of what justice is. I think of it as an eye for an eye.

You're right. Maybe I should be the one to have killed these people. I should have just got in my truck and drove all the way from Missouri to Virginia Tech and confronted the killer. Granted, I have no weapon nor the liscense to have one, and have no experience with guns, but HEY! I play mother****ing GTA, bitch, I can bust a cap wit da best of them!
I'm not in a position of power to decide what should happen to them. That's why.
I'd rather have a fascist judicial system that doesn't give rapist a chance to taste life again than a democracy where a lawyer can find some little loophole to exploit to keep a rapist from serving a few years in prison. And I'm pretty sure the victims of said rapists would want the same thing.
