The only person so far accused of lighting one of Australia's deadly wildfires was named publicly Monday as officials urged a nation outraged by the alleged arson to let justice take its course. (Feb. 16)
For some reason our laws on arson are fucked up. I have to agree, you kill people, destroy communities, millions in damage, and you get something like 25 years? It's absurd.
Metreing out 'eye for an eye justice' is just as barbaric as the arson and will not yield a humane society. If you do burn a proven arsonist I hope the person has the option for a humane death first.
I also hope in this case no one is being made a scapegoat for other agendas, ignorant planning, and/or acts of nature or weather wars.
Baha'i Holy Writings say the Arson should be burned to death, but the people can choose to be humane. We mustn't blame all on arson in this case. It is like a war zone.
did they catch anybody else? what was the reason for setting the fires?

I don't care what any writings say about anything. He started the fire. He should burn. It's simple really.

How the fuck do you kill all those people and get so little time? Over here, you can kill one person and your ass could be gone for life.
