In the ring of fire

These "kids" as we keep refering to them as must be what late teens, early 20's ??

Nat21 has advised that from personal intervantion (i am surmising(sp?)) that they still are as evil as they day they took Jamie from the world.

So why do people keep defending them, why are they allowed to roam the streets "safely" ??

I personally & i am not a keyboard hero would hunt them down till i drew my last breath.

I've watched how this thread has developed and I've come to the conclusion some people should come down from their ivory tower and take off the rose tinted spectacles.
Revenge attacks happen on a daily basis, just because you don't hear about it doesn't mean it doesn't take place. Sometimes the ''victim'' doesn't report it, the police take no action or can't prove anything or the media have bigger stories to tell on that particular day.

I am a regular man on the street, a Joe Nobody in the grand scheme of things. I don't move in criminal circles, I'm not in a gang and I'm not ''connected''. A normal bloke really, happily married with 3 great kids. I live in a town with a £ per head well above average. You getting the picture?
The following experiences are things I know have taken place in and around ''my little world'' they are either people I know or people I know of.

A woman's ex-husband comes round to pick up his kids to take them out for the day, he catches the new boyfriend with his hand down his 9 year old daughter's trousers. A fight ensues and the boyfriend is given a sound kicking. A few weeks pass and the boyfriend is bragging how he's done the mother and the daughter will be next. Word gets back to the ex-husband who doesn't take this very well at all, he goes looking for the boyfriend. He ended up serving 9 years for stabbing him to death.
His reasoning? He wanted to make sure the bloke didn't harm his daughter. Any remorse? None. He did what he thought he had to.

Man A and Man B have a fight in a pub, A takes a severe beating and loses an eye. A's brother isn't happy about this and goes looking for B, the brother also ends up taking a beating. Man A is obviously upset about all of this and waits outside B's house for him, when B returns A beats him round the head with a shovel. He is currently serving life.

Edited....
A business deal went bad and one of them served 4 years, upon his release he wasn't best pleased. He now lives abroad and the other lives in hiding.

I know people who have kicked someones door down, dragged them out of the house and into the back of a van and driven them into the middle of nowhere. A beating of the highest order was given and they were left. It was never reported as the someone had taken the beaten for something he had done and would have to incriminate himself.

When I was a teenager I had a friend who kneecapped a bloke for ******** his 14 year old sister. She was consenting to it but my friend wasn't having any of it. The bloke was warned several times to stop but took no notice. He waited for him one night and took a hammer to him.

There are many more things I could share with you to back this revenge theory up but it probably wouldn't be wise on a BBS.
There are plenty of people out there willing and able to do these things. Don't assume because you wouldn't/couldn't do anything it applies to other people.

I'm not a ''keyboard hero'', if anything happened to my kids and I could get hold of the person(s) responsible then I would seek retribution.

Up to, and including murder? Very few people would actually go through with that in my opinion. However, if it was your kids or you, i could understand most, if not all parents, sacrificing themselves. Different discussion though.

"His reasoning? He wanted to make sure the bloke didn't harm his daughter. Any remorse? None. He did what he thought he had to."

sounds like a well thought out plan!

It would depend on what had been done in the first instance.

I didn't say it was did I?

Tiggs

it is, dying is worth that too if its the only option. However, unless you are a complete moron you would think you could come up with a better plan that that.

here's one....10 secs thought.......rob somewhere and steal your kid....go live overseas and catch a tan. No murder, no prison and you can live near a beach.

I don't think he had "a plan" at the time. It wasn't a murder charge he faced but manslaughter. Mitigating circumstances and all that.

How long do you get for armed robbery and kidnapping then if you get caught???
You seem to be advocating committing a crime if the circumstances suit.
