"We live in an uncivilized society. Time for the return of similar severe punishments." - PeterH86
This in response to a story about cretins luring a young women into an alley with the sound of a crying baby...only to throw what is described as "acid" in her face.
I believe in instances like this, we need to revert to the Old Testament law of "an eye for an eye"...and punish these villains by throwing acid in their faces, so they can wear their shame and their crime for the rest of their lives—just as their victims must.
If one will not act like a civilized human being, perhaps one should not be treated like one, but rather as the barbarian he is.
