It may be the most difficult for those whom our natural reaction is shock, and anger, and tendency toward violent retribution.

It is exactly in these cases that the need for the restraint of justice - as opposed to retributive vengeance - is most needed.

well you would be hated and vilified in this country for such an at***ude. I was when i publically stated that even pedophiles deserved justice and if they didn't receive it, no one had it.

that hatred would have come from americans and canadians who live here.

Yes, it's still a controversial position here in the U.S. too, unfortunately. Which is kind of strange, because having the punishment fit the crime, and guaranteeing equal justice under the law, are foundational values that have always been a part of U.S. law.

What country are you in?
