I don't have any sympathy for pedophiles but this guy could have been innocent. Would really suck to be burned alive, especially for a crime you didn't commit.

Yeah. I could write all day about the shortcomings of the criminal justice system, but I would still trust it to get the right answer more often than a mob, except maybe when it comes to crimes committed by the rich and powerful.

Agreed.

Same. I want to be sure that he did it. Because some people lie. But if it’s been confirmed, yeah, burn the nonce.

Just read the article. He was accused, but it doesn't mention any irrefutable proof he actually did it. In a horrifying way, I hope he did, because if he didn't... what an agonizing way to die.

Violence done acting in concert is more reprehensible than individual violence.

This is why many of the pedos from the south come to the USA to rape kids.
