A Modest Proposal

Story yesterday about an old man attacked in broad daylight by thugs who tried to take his gold wrist watch.They smashed his face with bricks and then threw him down a grass bank.All while this was happening people were walking by ignoring it.

If the assailants were caught I would like to see their faces smashed to a bloody pulp with the bricks and have them tied round their necks and throw them in a very deep river. As for the passers by who were defacto accessories to the fact - they should all get a sound whipping.

In fact we should introduce public thrashings for burglars and muggers and public executions for murderers.Those who couldn't attend could see it on public wide screens.

Yes we need more prisons but they should be run on American lines:harsh and spartan.The inmates should work in chain gangs.There should be no early release 'for good behaviour'.Bad behaviour should be punnished with beatings.

First we must get all the 'human rights' lawyers, do-gooders, social workers, probation officers, and judges and give them all a public thrashing and then fire them.They should be replaced with conservative-minded public servants.

All fellow bloggers should form a new conservative party so we can put these ideas into effect. In fact a referendum on this matter would see an overwhelming majority of the British people support these measures.That's why the liberal bien passant would never allow it to happen.Instead they want to give the criminal scum the right to vote knowing that they will vote for them.And some people say the Devil doesn't exist!

Disgusting isn't it... Personally I think we need a few Guantanamo Bays over here... We could also do a roaring trade in hollywood blockbuster by allowing studios to use convicted criminals as cannon fodder in films like Apocalypse Now, Gladiator, etc. Perhaps even harvest their organs before they star in the film - so as to exact maximum punishment.

What's happened to your blog RC?Haven't been able to access it for a few days now.

Love your creative ideas re crims.Just the kind of suggestions you hear every day on the BBC!

I'm 100% behind you on this one. If your idea takes off I think I might buy some shares in a whip manufacturer.

It always amazes me how neighbourhoods allow themselves to be terrorized by a handfull of delinquents.It wouldn't happen in my area. The offenders would be taken out with extreme prejudice.

The Britsh people have become sadly gutless due to the welfare state ethos of learned helplessness.

Now now.We must not allow irony to infuse Nic's message with counter-productive excess.
Harvesting organs is not funny, nor is the suggestion that these unfortunate people be put into movies, except as extras in prison films.
On the other hand, what about Gary Gilmore's Eyes?
