My hat is off to this woman. Anyone who worries about the "rights" of the rapist is not worth arguing with. Sounds like she let the system do it's job and they decided to let him out so he could go to a bar? Got what he deserved!
My point is that being angry doesn't give anyone the right to kill a person. Period.

I believe that in certain cases you DO have the right to kill another individual. This woman most likely saved another person from the same horrible situation. But that's just my opinion.

Being angry, noooo, that does not give anyone a right to kill.
Taking the life of a piece of scum that raped your little girl and left her scarred for life does though...

Good for him. I hope it was very painful. If someone did that to my daughter they would be dead before the case made it to trial.

Here's the stupid bit... why was he let out on a three day pass?
Does jail give long-service leave these days?

As I said before...
Its always convenient to bring matters into your own hands when you're the judge, try being on the receiving end of someone's death judgment and see how much you enjoy it.
Lets say a guy cuts someone else off and he knows that that guy deserves to be shot, what is stopping him from doing it? By your reasoning his emotions justify his actions.

So people have the right to kill other people if they feel like it, lovely. In this case it is justified according to some, but like I said, since you have this laissez fair approach to killing people, what stops a person from killing another person for being rude? I don't mind your laissez fair approach, but that means you have to go all the way with it. Everyone is allowed to kill anyone, when and where they feel like it. Otherwise it is hypocritical.

To say he was asking for it is ridiculous. A relative of the rapist will probably kill the mom, mom's relative will kill the other family, ect. That's not how things are done.

I'd give my life without hesitation if some piece of trash touched my 9 year old daughter. But then that's me...invalid and wrong. So be it.
