yes because stating that killing is wrong is equivalent to what you just said. no where did i suggest that punishment should either be one extreme or another, i'm saying that someone doesn't deserve to be brutally beaten to death because of their heinous crimes.Originally Posted by ItsGettinHot

That's good because we can't go back in time and have him raped when he's still only 4 years old.
Why not kill him tho?
So you wanna give the guy a stern talking to and then let him free to go rape another kid?
Not many are going to agree with you. I don't agree with you. I see where you're coming from but if that was my daughter, he would've gotten beaten to death. From a completely rational point of view, I can agree with your "two wrongs don't make a right" argument, but if that's my little girl, or any little girl for that matter, he would be dealt with in a mindset that is "irrational." You can continue your argument, but I think it'd probably be a waste to let it fall on our deaf ears.Originally Posted by So Nyuh Shi Dae

i'm not even saying that his reaction is irrational. it's natural to react the way the father did. humans have been protecting their kin all throughout history. all i'm saying is that someone doesn't deserve death for their crimes. stating that someone is wrong for one act and suggesting that they rightfully deserve a punishment that is otherwise considered wrong doesn't make very much sense.Originally Posted by bruce negro

tl;dr Your argument is rational, but we're not trying to hear all that !+!+ when little girls are getting molested. You're not gonna convince anyone, save your breath.
because i disagree with eye for an eye.Originally Posted by So Nyuh Shi Dae
sexually abusing a child (or anyone for that matter) is in no way tolerable and is an absolutely disgusting crime, but that does not mean that an offender deserves to be killed.
i'm aware that he had the right to protect his daughter. that's not what i'm arguing.Originally Posted by solarius49
I'm with you 100%, but that only counts if he went searching the streets for the dude after the fact.Originally Posted by So Nyuh Shi Dae

Why not?
He was completely in his rights to use deadly force in the protection of another individual, and to prevent the commission of a crime in his home

Yes, they do- we would waste a lot less of our tax dollars and free up so much space if we would just start executing ANYBODY that we can prove, without a shadow of a doubt that either murdered somebody or abused/molested a child.

[h1]Grand jury: No indictment against father who killed daughter's alleged abuser[/h1]

STORY HIGHLIGHTS
- A Texas father said he beat a man he found sexually abusing his daughter
- The man died, despite the father's call to 911 for help and efforts to provide aid
- "This guy was raping my daughter and I beat him up," the crying father says in 911 call
- A grand jury decides no charges against the father
(CNN) -- A Lavaca County, Texas, grand jury did not return an indictment against a father who killed a man he found allegedly sexually abusing his daughter, officials said Tuesday at a press conference in Hallettsville, Texas.
"The substantial amount of evidence showed that the witness statements and the father's statement and what the father had observed was in fact what had happened that day," Lavaca County District Attorney Heather McMinn told reporters.
The father, who will not be charged, is not being named by CNN to protect the identity of his daughter.
The father called 911, and he and his family tried to "save the life" of alleged attacker Jesus Mora Flores "despite what they had just witnessed," McMinn added.
Authorities said Flores, 47, was an acquaintance of the family, known for his horse-grooming abilities.
According to the Lavaca County Sheriff's Office, the father and his family were enjoying a barbecue last Saturday at their ranch where they keep horses and chickens.
His 5-year-old daughter had gone off toward the barn, to feed the chickens, the child's grandfather told CNN affiliates KSAT and KPRC.
Then her father heard screaming and ran. He found a man sexually abusing his daughter, according to Sheriff Micah Harmon.
The father stopped the alleged abuser, and then pounded him repeatedly in the head, killing him, authorities said.
On the recorded 911 call, the father can be heard crying, and telling the operator, "I need an ambulance. This guy was raping my daughter and I beat him up. And I don't know ... I don't know what to do."
Later in the call, when the operator tells the caller, "I'm working on it if you can hold on," the emotional father says, "The guy's dying on me!"
Neither officials nor the family's attorney, V'Anne Huser, took questions from reporters but Huser said in light of the grand jury's decision, "in our opinion, today, the story is over."
The incident occurred outside the town of Shiner, a community between Houston and San Antonio that has about 2,000 people within its city limits and another 1,500 or so on its outskirts, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
