Punishment is futile

This nearly made me cry.

The ability to show such humanity in the face of sheer emotional trauma, and the recognition that punishment is futile.

People lose clarity when someone is attacked, calling immediately for the perpetrator to be destroyed. When will we realise we have no more right to be here than any other creature? Thank god there are some people who realise how stupid and arrogant it is to return like for like. This relates back to every punishment issue I can think of. I know a lot of you disagree with me on this one, but if this family can show some sense, why can't you?
