Re: No charge for Texas dad who killed daughter's rapistHe is not a murderer. He was protecting his daughter. I think every father would do the same. His intention was clearly not to kill the man. To be honest if I saw a man raping a young girl, even if I didnt know the child I would beat the crap out of the man

Re: No charge for Texas dad who killed daughter's rapistI'd support the 'vigilante' who did it in all rape/assault cases, because it's the removal of another scumbag off the streets.(Original post by Riderz)
Um... yeah, I do happen to know exactly what a vigilante is, thanks.
I also know that people are entitled to a fair trial and to be punished, if found to be guilty, be a court of law.
As much as what he did was sick, the guy wouldnt have got the death penalty for it. So in effect the vigilante has gone beyond what punishment the court would give, and has committed murder. The danger is it sets a precedent, and at what point do you say that what he did was punishable? Is it murdering the rapist of, a 15 year old, a 30 year old; touching up (ie sexual assault) of a 22 year old? The police, therefore, by making a decision about whether to punish him or not have taken the justice system into their own hands - they might consider a case not punishable, whereas a judge might consider it punishable. As such said 'vigilante' gets away with murder...
I cannot believe that you're actually bringing 'justice' into this? Was it just that he raped a defenceless five-year-old girl in a senseless and depraved act? Of course not, which is why I support the guy who battered him to death.
It's a bit different if someone battered someone who had stolen a bag of sweets, or slashed someone's tyres - but you've got to apply common sense in cases like this and realise that in the heat of the moment, you're not going to see your daughter being raped and just let the guy get away with it, are you?
Really, use your loaf. -

Re: No charge for Texas dad who killed daughter's rapistIf i walked into my house and saw some paedophile **** with his trousers down about to rape my daughter, i wouldn't be able to stop myself from beating him senseless. I genuinely would probably get so mad that i wouldn't even be aware of stamping his head in and when i did come to my senses, i'd look down on him and feel nothing, sick pieces of **** deserve death.

Re: No charge for Texas dad who killed daughter's rapistEven the simpletons who often cry 'human rights' have to admit shooting the rapist off the daughter was the right thing to do. Personally, if this guy had had to hunt this guy down, torture and then execute then I'd be fine with that.
Oh stop being so technical. The safety of the child was and still is more important than someone's need to rape a five year old. Yes, we do have the law and yes, we wouldn't execute someone legally for rape. This guy was lucky that the rules of law don't apply when someone is in danger.(Original post by Riderz)

As far as I'm concerned, once you've committed a crime, your human rights should be revoked. -

Re: No charge for Texas dad who killed daughter's rapistThe guy got what he deserved.
That said vigelantes are never a good idea. It only takes the media to claim someone is guilty when in reality they are not, and suddenly innocent people start dying. There's a difference between a man defending his daughter and a man actively seeking the death of another. -

Re: No charge for Texas dad who killed daughter's rapistReally Harry, really?(Original post by Harry Callahan)
Big price to pay? Please tell me you're joking. That bastard deserved everything that was coming to him, and I fully commend the dad that did it.
The more vigilante groups to target scum such as the sick bastard that did this, the better, I say. -

I'm suprised no one has accused him (the rapist) of being a secret muslim or something the way threads have been popping up this past week.

Re: No charge for Texas dad who killed daughter's rapistWhen I see a pretty girl walking down the street, I think two things. One part wants me to take her out, talk to her, be real nice and sweet and treat her right. The other, what her head would look like on a stick.
