It’s high time that hanging is put back in the system as punishment cause this is getting out of hand. I remember back in the day when hanging was in place, that crime was at it’s all time low. why can’t we get back there?

LUCIANS AT WAR WITH GOD.
So I have a question….if for their whole lives they never attend a church or show praise to God by doing good to others, why can’t their families just dig a 6ft deep whole somewhere and drop their body in there while bursting more shots in the air and drinking Hennessy? Why must they always have a church funeral..the same churches that they hate so much?
The police should have a emergency road block to apprehending the killer’s.

The police should have road blocks or road checks but never emergency road blocks the police should never announce the operations and should never be in one spot for more than 20 mins before moving on to another location it should always be a moving road block because with today’s technology any road block lasting more than 20 mins in one spot is waste of time@@
