Law Abiding Citizen

There's an article on CNN.com about a recent bust where about seventy people were arrested for belonging to this child porn website. I realize that I pay more attention to stories like that since my daughter was born. I usually just write the people off as being sick fucks, but this shit was on a whole different level. The site they were on required members to upload videos of them raping a child in order to join and view content. They had to post new shit frequently in order to keep membership and membership status was on a tiered system. The highest rank required the child to be screaming and visibly upset and devastated or some shit like that. I can't bring myself to go back and read it to get the wording right, but it was very fucking sick. What really pushed me over the edge was the part about them having categories on their site and Infants being a damn category.

They caught seventy of the people and they all face thirty years in prison. The Attorney General said basically what I'm saying now, thirty years isn't enough for what they did. I always hear that child molesters and rapists get what they deserve in prison, but even if they send them to one of those prisons from that show Lockdown, it isn't enough for me.

I have a daughter, she just turned one and it's sick shit like this that has made me so paranoid that I don't trust anyone to babysit. I don't even let my mother babysit and it isn't that I don't trust her. It's that I don't know when she might go visit a friend of hers and run to the bathroom or something and they might do something. A year ago I would've told you that I'd never shelter my child and that I wanted my daughter to grow up hood tough just like I did. When I was five I started catching the metrobus by myself. In NC I thought those kids were so soft because they were driven everywhere. Well, I'm eating crow because I won't let my child out of my sight because of shit like this.

So what do I think these guys deserve? First off, I'm not saying we just go kill people without a trial. They had to post videos to join the site, right? Well, let's go to the videotape! If John Doe is on camera and we, the jury, see him raping a child. He's guilty. But his ass ain't going to jail... at least not right away. We're going Law Abiding Citizen on his ass. I'm talking torture, smelling salts and blood transfusions to make sure that he experiences pain that pushes him just to the brink of death and then we pull him back, let him heal and start it all over again. Then he goes to jail and gets the shit beat out of him each day.

I don't even know how to end this post, because I'm so damn mad.
