Don't waste taxpayers money, resources on them. They simply don't deserve to live for "rest of their lives in jail"

Of you want to love in a civilized society you don't want to do that. Let them sit in jail for the rest of their lives that's fine.

What if you get the wrong person? Yes the perpetrator deserves terrible things, but in order to find and get the right people, we need to go about it in a systematic way. Locking people in jail rather than killing them has the benefit of allowing us to free them should they be exonerated and someone else caught.

It's not about what's deserved, it's about what will lead to the best outcome. Retribution doesn't necessarily solve problems.

Tortured for the rest of their life, not just sitting in a shitty room.

Sitting in a shitty room and not being able to go outside is torture enough for most. Remember how we all went a bit wonky in the head during lockdown? Like that, but for a lifetime.

Lockdown was nothing for me.

It was normal, no change.

Good for you! I used to live in a flatshare, so I had a bigger bubble than most and that helped

Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
