    • Either that or colonisation, i am sure the perpetrator will be found to be the victim by a clever pro agenda 2030 academic…
      Shane Jones is correct about judges

  1. We really need to re-institute the death penalty in this country and start cleaning out the crazy sadistic scum in the gene pool.
    Can you imagine what terrible suffering that little boy underwent – beaten to death at the hands of a grown man. It is almost a weekly occurrence in this country now.

  2. Low life’s killed a child.
    Shows they are so low they are below ground.
    No slap on hand.
    Life sentence meaning life not this 15-25 bs
