Yeah but there aren't actually virgins waiting for them so they'll get a nasty surprise when they find that bit out! Its more about the cost of keeping them for me, better all round to just get on with it


The cost of executing someone is vastly higher than keeping them in prison for life.

In California, for example, each inmate given the death sentence costs around 18 times as much as those given life without parole.

Surely though that's because of appeal after appeal and the costs that accrues.

Legal fees are a huge part of it yes but surely we’re not suggesting executing people without following due process??

If so, we really would be demeaning our society.

Celebrating the death of another human is despicable, no matter what they have done. He should've faced the courts if at all possible.

Really....each to their own I suppose. I'd inwardly be pleased to hear the passing of any paedophile, murderer or drugs Lord.

Sorry but I feel sadness for the people who lost their lives and those that were seriously injured .

If that makes me a racist xenophobic bigot numbskull then so be it.

Don't worry, he'll be hating the French tomorrow, probably for allowing terrorists to jump on British lorries at Calais.

I respect everyones views on this subject...but I do wonder if those of you who think that imprisoment is justice enough would think the same way if their family..spouse..children...were murdered by a terrorist?....if you do then fair enough but I for one would seek summary justice..it would be devastating to wake up every day to think that the perpatrator was being looked after while my loved ones were gone forever...but that’s just me...

And you think the pain would be less devastating if the terrorist had been executed?

Is the pain any less for the relatives of those killed by a suicide bomber then?

I get your point but honestly think I would feel the same if it happened to me. Obviously I’ll never know for sure unless it happens but I certainly hope revenge wouldn’t be my primary concern.

Yep, I have cousins whose father was murdered (robbers not terrorists) and they do not support the death penalty at all.

Everyone feels empathy for the families of those killed Benters, goes without saying.

And no, your desire for retribution doesn't make you a racist, no one has said it does.

You do realise it's perfectly possible to feel sadness for the victims whilst still thinking summary execution and torture are a bad thing?

I've always thought this is one of the most powerful things I've ever read/heard.

What an incredibly inspirational man.

If there were more people like him around the world would be a better place. I've no doubt their son will grow into a fine human being too, when it would have been so easy for them both to become consumed by bitterness and hatred.

I don’t think anyone’s suggesting the police shouldn’t shoot to kill in these circumstances just that, as a rule of thumb, it’s better to capture these people alive.
