A sickening crime

A few days ago three white supremacists in New Mexico abducted a young Navajo man and, among other things, forcibly branded a swastika on his arm. The perpetrators have, at least, been arrested and will face charges.

This is the kind of thing that sometimes makes me wish we could still sentence people to public flogging.

Yeah .... I was reading this on Ms.TNlib .... I was dumb as a doorknob on this ... I mean what would be the "point" of branding something like that on someone else? Especially if you were a white seperatist? Just draw's unecessary heat to the movement, sound's kind of dumb actually. Oh well .... that's just me though.

Thanx Mr.Infidel ........

Racists are usually pretty dumb, but this is rather more serious than that. Branding somebody is a permanent disfigurement. They need to go to prison for a long, long time.
