Popular Post Denim Posted November 7, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2023 I used to be dead set against the death penalty when I was in my youth. Now , after a lifetime of reading about pointless killings : ' Mr. Yossaphon, the elder brother, admitted to police that he became angry when he saw the victim’s face for no reason.' I just don't see any use to anyone in a life behind bars for the murderer. He took a young life and should forfeit his own. 6 2 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is Thailand after all. But then again, after the Siam Paragon shooting the government might want to send a message. I suppose it all depends on how well connected, or wealthy the family is. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually if you read the whole story there was an exchange about which technical school they were studying at which led to an argument and then the altercation. Now I'm not saying that makes it OK (please don't strawman me), but I'm just clarifying that it wasn't quite as random as just shooting him because he didn't like the guy's face. Let's hope they both get life in jail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like yourself I were against the death penalty when younger, miscarriage of justice being the main reason since being found innocent later counts for nothing since nothing can bring you back. But, in such cases like this caught holding the gun, killing is senseless, a son and brother gone because you cannot control yourself??? An eye for an eye seems to be justice to me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
