Richard Bridge...."One needs to be careful about akenaton. That something is unnatural does not mean that doing it should be punished by death."

A typically clumsy attempt by Richard to link my post to the Ugandan thread.

I was actually talking about people like Mr Robert Black, who raped and murdered several young children in the UK a few years ago.
Although obviously mad, Mr Blacks' crimes were of such a magnitude and of such an unnatural and horrific nature, that rehabilitation,or release at any time in the future would be impossible.

Do you think Richard, that we are behaving more humanely in locking Mr Black up with his demons for the rest of his life, rather than putting him swiftly out of his misery?

Personally, I would extend Mr Blacks catagory to include warmongering world leaders, and the designers of the latest form of satellite guided super bombs, which can destroy whole families with the touch of a button.
