A lifetime in a max security prison from 21 years of age would have been the ultimate punishment imvho.

That's a great Freudian slip man! You obviously meant "ascend upon Heaven" but said descend, which indicates Hell of course...

F*ck him.

You wanna pull that **** here? You die as a result.

And Soul, what the hell with the "attractive boy" crap?

I'm assuming she means had he been sentenced to life in prison, being a relatively young and good looking guy he would have had a lot of "girlfriends" inside. Which, given the reported muslim aversion to homosexuality, might have been a living hell for him...

From Heaven of course.

I'm not sure how I feel about the death penalty. Some crimes are definitely heinous enough that the savage in me wants to be revenged by the person's own life being taken. I mean, life in prison? Sometimes it's not that long and anyway that person (say a murderer) gets to live (albeit confined), maybe learn new skills, find God, whatever, while the people they murdered can't do that. Not to mention, in this instance, sending him to prison could provide a focal point for other homegrown insurgents, who might try to get him out or make a shrine of his cell. Maybe he'd become more powerful a symbol alive and imprisoned than he would as a martyr.

It's hard to say, but in the end I think death is the best outcome here. Just doesn't feel like justice is done, if you see him in years to come giving interviews, writing books, released if he gets sick? I don't know. I'd feel happier with the **** gone off the planet. But that's just me.
