@NOVAGIRL666 ah, so you're an angry, barbaric person who prefers destruction of ourselves over attempts at reform?

what a sad way to live, sure the jail systems we have currently are a waste of money based on how they rarely help to make people better, but to be that malicious and serious

omg! i wanna slap the white out of them bitches

[NOVAGIRL666]

i think those racists should be hanged, not by the neck, but by the feet. while they are dangling, soak them in gasoline and set them on fire. while they are burning alive whack them with a wooden bat like the filth they are. whack their jaws clean off and crush their rib cage. afterwards if they do survive let them go and liveo ut their lives are charred jawless skeletons. i believe thats punishment enough.
