      I don’t think it’s barbaric at all. Hell, if anything, making people care for this asshole for 50+ years is barbaric. There is no rehabilitation for this guy. There is no way he becomes a productive member of society.

        If even long-term KKK members can be rehabilitated then so can this kid whose brain hasn’t even fully developed.

          So what, you think you can just let a mass murderer walk the streets again because he convinced someone he’s rehabilitated?

          Even those long term KKK members didn’t kill people.

          I want to believe that, the goal should be rehabilitation somehow. That said, at this moment in time when we don’t have good rehabilitation implementations, I find this turn of events acceptable based on the crime committed.

      The only civilised country that still allows it is America. Take from that what you want…
