im new to this thread man. just bcos he died, he deserves
sympathy? ur killing 5 other people because of 1 dead guy and whose
fault was it in the first place? idk but imo he was arrogant and
thought he would win thats y he stare 1st.
it wasnt entirely the gang's fault. things got out of hand. why
wont people think rationally and not emotionally. dont get angry
and start to flame me 1st. think for those ppl and their futures.
is it worth it or not? 5 lives pay for 1. imho, very bo hua
1. The police have confirmed that it was a gangfight and not a
mere staring incident.
2. Even if it had been, what are you trying to say? 'The
victim was staring at us' is a legitimate casus belli
for murder? Or that it reduces the culpability of the
murderers?
3. People in here are thinking rationally. Those five gangsters
were the ones who did not. Any reasonable, rational person would
know that getting into fights and killing people is a very bad
thing, especially if it leads to the death penalty.
Which goes to my next point: the death penalty is not just about
punishment, but about deterrence. Yes, it is a very harsh
punishment, but it would make all rational people think twice about
joining gangs and slashing people to death.
Yes, you might say that those five gangsters were not deterred.
However, deterrence only works on rational people like you and me,
and we have already long since established that those gangsters
were far from rational.
I'm not gleeful at the prospect of all those young people
getting hanged to death. But if it deters other young people from
doing what they did, then I can't say that it's a bad thing.
