"No everybody doesn't deserve a second chance"
This isn't a second chance Josepp - they were children, and the mark of any civilised society is that it doesn't kill ten-year-old kids, or even punish them as adults.
If you are unable to understand what is legally or morally wrong with placing two ten-year-olds on a death row for six years then executing them, then I very much doubt if there is anything anybody here could possibly put forward to change your mind.
In the evil stakes, your suggestion out-evils anything done by Venables and Taylor by a mile
Thank you for making my case so eloquently (I do believe it to be the logical conclusion of much that has been argued here).
Penny S says it all for me, and far more eloquently than I could.
