Originally posted by FreakyKBHI don't understand what people are reading into this. He's asking for prison because his house, to which he is confined for house arrest, is located too close to a bus stop where children gather and violates the town's sex offender statutes. He wants to serve his time in prison so he is not in violation of the 1400 foot distance requirement while another dwelling is found so he can finish the rest of his sentence in accordance with all the state and local laws.
Maybe he was asking for prison for another (ala Dahmer) reason?
This guy may be a scumbag and a predator but it sounds like he is trying to fulfill the requirements of the sentence he was given and not incur any further violations.
Originally posted by trev33Yes, it is. Imprisoning the obviously guilty is not a worthwhile social excercise. Are you going to tell me that if some davage butchers a member of your family like so much meat you're going to be happy to see them continue to breath?

For example, if someone harmed my daughter, I'd happily strangle the SOB with my bare hands. This would take several days to reach fulfillment. There would be begging, sobbing and tears.
Originally posted by MimorHis bus stop prediciment is irrelevant to me. The man had his sentence commuted from 15 years in prison to 2 years house arrest. A little inconvenience of having to move his white trash wife and seven kids makes baby Jesus cry, but, otherwise is inconsequential.

The victim was concerned about financial support. Euthanize the offender and sell his organs for profit. Problem solved. Plus, you can't tell me his seven kids wouldn't be better off without the benefit of this scum bags parentage. Does nobody else have a problem with a convicted paedophile living in a house with seven kids? It's like a buffet of underage temptation.

ok, someone's daughter is murdered and the father of said daughter takes it into his own hands and kills the murderer, now the father is charged with murder. does he also face the death sentence? i presume you would think the original perpetrator would be, would the second case to any different? yes or no, why so?
Originally posted by trev33I see, to be equated with such a sublime and eloquent mind as the illustrious Grandpa, to banish misconception and ambiguity to the realms of darkness, to battle ignorance as one would an injustice, risking defamation of character for the sake of truth, i count it an honour to be associated with such a friend of virtuous eloquence, Grandpa Bobby!

For myself, if someone was to hurt my daughter, I'd stop at nothing for retrobution.
Originally posted by Hand of HecateI used to be of the same thought, when my daughters were young. They're now 21 and 19. When they were up to aged anything I would have served time for them... i.e. killed a perpretator.

However, as we learn, at later stages, quite often the abuser has, indeed themselves, been abused. In a contextual sense, indoctrinated. That distortion of mind from their abuser has, in fact, changed that originality of person into somebody completely different. In apparency, I would say that case by case, surely, a society would need to take an in depth view of the 'new' abuser.... albeit the person who doesn't seem to know much difference between good and bad experience, purely by first hand upbringing.
Some people, I think, ARE born with evil, misaligned traits? But wouldn't we also agree that there are some who were born with equal innocence to that of our own perceptions of normality? And that they were spoiled, or even soiled by past abusers?
Does the death sentence, in that scenario, warrant execution?
Originally posted by Hand of Hecatebut to answer my question, would you expect to be trialed on the same charges (death penalty) than the person who killed your daughter? and why?
