First, he needs a proper trial.

Second, once he's convicted, he needs to be made to suffer!

....then hang the scum!


I have a vivid memory of an episode from "Hogan' Heroes," where Gen. Burkhalter tells Col. Klink, "Ve vill take you to Berlin and give you a fair trial. Zen you vill be shot."

I am not that type of person. I am a strong believer in justice, but not something as archaic and cave man like that. Taking the OP literally here.

I understand where you're coming from but in the cold light of day...I couldn't do it.

I can understand reacting to an ongoing situation...but once it's done you need to let the law take its course.
