There sure is a lot of this lately. People seem to be enraged more easily these days. Moms: Stay with your babies. Praying for the poor momma of this little one.
I believe the punishment should fit the crime. If you shoot someone, your punishment should be to be shot. If you beat someone about the head, you should be beat about the head. Since the system does not agree with that, maybe someone in the prison system – IF he is assigned to such – WILL agree with it.
Those who kill are operating in animal mode. Animals don’t mind killing, sometimes their own offspring.
I don’t know how anybody could hurt a child at all!
I don’t understand how someone can hurt a child so badly! They should do way worse to him and let him suffer! Jail is to easy for someone like him! You disgust me.
