Thought knife crime in England was bad

[terry26 6]

On Monday in a Krugersdorp school an 18 year old boy sliced the throat of a 16 year old fellow pupil and injured 3 other people using a Samurai sword .

The comments now coming out is that he wore a mask similiar to the one worn by the lead singer of Slipknot and he's claiming to have been possessed by the devil

i think this is disgusting personally

Firstly to blame the band is the stupidest thing i've ever heard - i listen to heavy metal and used to play violent TV and computer games - i'm not closer to wanting to kill anyone than before

Secondly - it was a premeditated murder becoz he was bragging to friends on Sat nite and wore the mask saying that he wants a blood bath

Now they are debating who's to be held responsible the kid, his parent, the band or the school

My opinion is that he is 18 years old - he can drink, vote, drive, buy a pack of cigarettes if he wants to so the jackass should be held responsible for his own bloody actions, be tried as an adult and be held accountable for his own actions.

Sorry just thought i'd vent a little

He is to blame how can you say a band is to blame I used to listen to them and its never made me want to go stab someone

For fuck sake stop they need to stop looking for excuses!

One count of premeditated murder and three of, let's see, wounding with intent, and as SA doesn't have the death penalty, he's looking at what, 70 years, 80 years?

Bastard.

I'd make it 90.

This is exactly like the Columbine HS thing. The people of the area decided to blame Marilyn Manson for it cause apparently the shooters listened to his music - so what?

I think that if he is 18, he should be aware of what he is doing and be able to control his actions.

I listen to Slipknot and still all my mates are safe with me........or are they?

I think that's just stupid to blame a band for you're acts,send him away for life.

Indonesia's knife crime's just as bad, if not worse.

So you think he won't be dead after 60 years? He'd be what, 78?

thats really not fair the 16 year old was probebly inocent and did nothing wrong at all, these people need to be locked behind bars for life

60 years for murder, then 10 years for each count of wounding with intent.

Unless...how long is the life sentence in SA?

SA doesn't have the death penalty,

SA being such a crime ridden country has no Death Sentence? Ridiculous.

Hang the Cunt to death or sever his head off under a guilliton.

Killing an innocent 16 year old is hideous.

All I can say is, I hope the arsehole drops his soap.

I have heard that the SA govt. approved a carjacking deterrent system that shoots 5000 degree magnesium flames out to burn the attacker. I want one, granted nobody would steal my car, it's a piece of crap!

I'm thinking that would be too merciful. I'd have him tortured excruciatingly for at least 5 years first.

Quite clearly he has to take full responsibility for his actions. The fact that Slipknot may or may not have influenced him is besides the point - he's an adult and can make his own decisions. For this one, he must burn. He's obviously evil and should be locked up with the key thrown away.

There is one thing wrong with that...if the key's thrown away, how will they be able to reuse the cell?

I see what you're getting at, though.

Had it been China or India, he'd have swung. If it had been Texas, he'd end up as part of the national Grid. In Thailand, it would have been the Lethal Injection. Either way, if I'd been the judge, I'd have turned up for the first day of the trial with the black cap already on.

Yeah, and more than once, too.

Now as a judge, it'd be nice if you were fair about it and listened to all the evidence before making your decision.
