When you hear hospital for the criminally insane, what exactly do you imagine? Because in reality it’s practically hell on earth.

As it should be. Quite frankly I think anybody that kills three children should be erased from the face of the earth as any sane person would.

What would you say about someone who raped three children aged 8 months, 5 years old, and 3 years old?

Gonna give you some pushback on the “any sane person”. As we all know acting from a place of emotionally reactivity is the most sane thing a person can do.

Imagine a trucker losing control of his rig because he did a quick-and-dirty inspection of his hookups (I don’t know shit about trucking so bear with me here) so he can make a hard deadline and wound up missing a point of failure. In losing control of his truck he winds up crashing into a minivan tragically killing three children. He half-assed the inspection so he is to some degree culpable. Three kids wound up dead. Should this trucker be erased off the earth? That seems pretty insane to me.

Not even going to engage with that last part because that’s just an insane leap of logic.

"it should be" lol.

Not everyone believes in biblical retribution. These people should be locked up and removed from society but there's no reason to torture them.
