The racial killing events have been increasing recently, and the penalty issue has started to be a hot topic.I think death is not a way to let them know their fault, is a way to release them from their guilty, so we should let them stay alive to repent for their guilt.
回覆刪除More and more children were killed in public ,this situation caused parents feel unsafe to the social. Maybe we can't prevent the killer to kill us but i think we must to learn some self defense to protect ourselves.
回覆刪除The killer is only can be described for cruel. How innocent the little girl is! In my opinion, people having bad thinking leads to wrong behaviors. So,we should concern people around us in usual time. Helping the society recovers from sick.
