I simply cannot imagine that child's last moments.

You simply have no heart or compassion for this man.  He's clearly disturbed and you have no right to judge him.  You're a hatemonger and probably a racist.  Shame on you.

Disturbed? As Chris Rock said, what happened to just plain "crazy?" The whole story is just kinda nuts.

Is it so hard to believe someone could do something like this without bringing his race or mental status into it? Is everyone who commits an overtly heinous crime automatically off the hook because they "obviously must be disturbed?"

"The whole story is just kinda nuts."
Really? Is that all?

How about the whole story is an example of a person of such "pure evil, abject cruelty, and soulless inhumanity."

That poor child must have suffered terribly.

Yes Guido, but we can HELP the father now.  If he hadn't done this he may never have recieved the help he needs.  It was a desperate cry for help, we can rebuild him, we have the technology.

Sick and saddening, it breaks my heart.  Unfortunately the death penalty is too good for goons like that.

I thought maybe you were "disturbed"

And yeah, evil incarnate.

IP. Perhaps you are right. My problem is that I have lost perspective. The "soulless inhumanity" and "abject cruelty" in this story is society and not this poor, innocent, and misunderstood father. My bigotry clearly clouded my point of view in this matter. For that I apologize...

Now now, Guido admitting you are a bigot is the first step, bless you for your courage...
