if this dude is 6'10" how much do you think he weighs?

Cassavant, btw don't forget about the victoms families and loved ones. You always got to put your self in there shoes. What if it was your daughter or your wife or your mother. Would you not want the SOB tortured brutily as possible like what he did to your loved one?

Curling, if someone in my family were killed the way some of the people in Douglas's book were killed, I'd want to nail their balls to a kerosene-soaked stump, light it on fire, hand them a dull knife, and give them the choice of castrating themselves or burning to death. If they chose the former, they'd eat the barrel of a 12-gauge shotgun after about three steps.

This is why laws can't be based on purely subjective criteria. Noone should be expected to decide on a punishment in keeping with the long-term benefit of society after having a loved one tortured, raped, eviscerated, and posed post-mortemly with an umbrella shoved up their vagina.

This is why we have courts of law with pre-determined punishment guidelines and such. This is also why a killer would never be tried in a court whose presiding judge was acquainted or kin to the victim(s).

You picking up what I'm putting down?

I think torture can be called for in setting an example for extreme situations. I would not oppose a day of torturing OBL though I would not want to personally do it.

Yea I do. I think they should get a fair unbiased trial just like you said and then if found guilty let the families of the victoms pick the torture. I guarantee their would be less tortureous crime if that was the law.
