Damnit spectre you stole the opening to my reply. Oh well. I will say I do concur with that though. Neither killing this man NOR EACH OTHER will bring the child back. Lets keep that in mind.

Right. And where will that get us? I am sure we allready have a family in distress right now. Lets think of a scenario real quick. Now the article didn't mention most of this per se but none of it is that rare either so it might be true. Lets assume he is the main breadwinner of the home. His wife either does not have a job or DOES have a job that makes half or less what he makes. Lets also assume he has two more kids. He also has a mother. And a brother. Okay so right now we have a Mother,Grandmother,Uncle and siblings of the child all allready in distress over the lose of the young one. Now are we so cavalier to add to their distress? Should we now go in and kill (or even just remove to prison or some other distant place) the main money maker of this family? Not to mention everyone else who will be hurt just be his lack of presences.

Right. And that is my next point. He SHOULD be punished. How exactly? I am not sure. That all depends on a number of things not mentioned in this article that neither I or any of us can really comment on because we just don't have all the facts. But making the punishment fit the crime does not mearly mean doing the crime onto the perpetrator. If someone robs a bank we don't in turn rob them and call it even. I think he probably needs counseling and if he DOES have other children then he defintly needs some classes on parenting. Maybe some stress mangament classes. Of course this is all conjecture. As I allready said we don't KNOW he did this because of stress. That is just a guess that some people have presented to help explain it.
