TIL serial killer Pedro López, who killed over 300 girls, was released on $50 bail in 1998. He is currently free.

I think murdering 300 women is pretty easy to distinguish from a minor drug charge or a few cases of assault and battery. Enough people would be competent enough to see the difference, maybe you're not

Nice straw man, I'm asking at what limit or kills does it warrant torture. By going OP's logic, if someone commits a "crime against humanity" such as torture itself, does that mean the people who torture should be tortured? The fuck? Look at my posts and yours, tell me who is competent and who is not.

Maybe your level of competence is on par with the people who signed this shitheads release, you know...so he could go murder more women.

Nice straw man again, did I ever agree with his release? I'm just objecting to OP's stupid logic that contradicts his point. But if a Court releases someone, It's based on the assumption there isn't enough evidence. Ever heard of "innocent until proven guilty" dipshit? Seems like you are the who knows so little.

It's easy for you to hold your belief because it wasn't your daughter who was brutally murdered, if it had been I'm sure you'd think differently.

Yeah, I probably would think differently if it was my daughter, but does that mean my emotions determine whether or not someone is tortured? If so, why can't everbody who has commited murder be subject to torture based on the victim's family's emotions?

t's not only about the crime committed but the pain and suffering it caused loved ones, that's never addressed nor is punishment for it dealt out..

Yes because causing suffering because you suffer=Justice. Get the fuck out, whose to say your contradicting definiton of what justice should be implented? What makes you so different than those you deem fit to be tortured?

Ultimately, I don't give a fuck what your viewpoint on that is though.

Cool, difference between my viewpoint and yours is, mine is actually based on reality and is in practice, yours would dismissed and is dismissed as nothing more than someone emotionally talking out of their ass. But, whatever helps you sleep at night.
