Unsureme - as i carefully stated, I find the sentiments expressed, and the righteous anger that fuels them perfectly understandable, but in a civilised society it is the gulf between 'understandable' and 'acceptable' that defines us.
If it were one of my family, of course i would want revenge, what parent wouldn't, and I have a grandaugher and three grandsons, but I repeat, mindless vengeful spewing of vitriol to strangers solves nothing. The law is what we have - if you want any of the 'punishments' you are so keen to boast of inflicting, lobby your MP for them. That's how democracy works.
