Fines aren’t near enough at this point, we need public executions at a minimum to put a dent in this problem.

No killing them is too extreme. Put them in a room with 1,000 different types of ringing telephones for a week.

The way I see it, an alleged murderer is entitled to a trial by an impartial jury of one's peers. However, It would be improper for victims of the deceased to serve on the jury trying the murder case.

When the deceased has continuously harassed everyone with a phone for the past 20+ years, it is impossible to assemble an impartial jury. Impossible to assemble a jury means it is also impossible to convict.

I like the shame bell from game of thrones.

[–] Rivalarrival 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes, I suppose we could beat telemarketers to death with that bell just as well as with anything else.

I guess you never saw the shame walk. Oh well.

I saw it. It's not nearly what they deserve.

Minimum sentence should be 18 months in the company of Ramsay Bolton.
