Over an X-box?!?!?!?!

This happened last week in Central Florida. A group of thugs were in a vacant home and were kicked out by the owners. They left behind some clothing and an X-box. They came back and killed the people in the house and got the X-box back. Here's the link to the story:

Sounds like several people of little/no worth to society will no longer be a part of it.

I agree that the vigilante justice was a tad severe and think these folks need to be taken out of circulation permenantly.

More reason to bring back public executions and lynch mobs... pour encourager les autres.

Over the next days, deputies were called to the grandparents' house six times. The victims also reported a tire-slashing at their home and a threat.
It also sounds like the local police dept. should have taken the situation more seriously and kept an officer in the area at all times. Or arrests should have been made sooner.

You THINK that would have happened.....especially since one of the suspects is an ex-con......

Can we scream "F*CK The Police" YET?

I saw this story on the news over the weekend. People are brutally murdered for an X box. That's evil.

Almost guaranteed those scumbuckets will get a one-way ticket up Florida Highway 16 to Raiford. Damn... too bad Old Smokey's been put to pasture, replaced by a 'juicing machine' (lethal injection).

That's very sad.

Lethal injection is too humane for some.

Strapped to a Mk-84 high-explosive bomb on a B-52? I'm all for it! If the 18-hour (air-refueled non-stop) trip over doesn't kill 'em (the bomb bay is not pressurized nor heated), the explosive effect will!
