Ok gripe time! I have just read the BBC News website which I do on a daily basis, many of the news stories on the site wind me up, many make me smile, many make me want to write a blog on. For example I actually held back writing a blog about the Teddy Bear incident recently. Basically knowing that millions of people would be blogging about it.
So the blog today is for this particular story which is about a man who has brutally murdered his wife by stabbing her over 100 times with a knife. Ok the actual act is disgusting and hey we don’t need to point that out, however what appals me is the story says he will service a minimum of 12.5 years.
Now 12.5 years is fricking nothing!?!?!? There has been a story recently about prison overcrowding in the UK well with sentencing like that no wonder people re-offend. 12 years in a prison for taking a life is appalling. That person should be locked away until they die. Or better still he fricking admitted the crime therefore shoot the bastard and be done with it.
The sentencing of crime in the UK is a joke, people re-offend because there is nothing to put them off re-offending. Also for some a stretch behind bars, getting 3 meals a day and having somewhere to watch TV, play sports, talk with other crims and make better contacts and having a warm dry place to sleep is a better option than what they have on the outside!??!
This country needs to wake up!! Our government needs to start listening to the people!
Apparently the UK will finally get Video on Demand through their Xbox 360’s. On December 11th 2007 Microsoft has confirmed it will be launching the UK version of the Video Marketplace.
