well its pretty much similar to King Herod's killings of every new-born between 1-3 years in the time Jesus was born
Yeah which will eventually lead to another case study of religious extremism (and go off topic) when in reality this was an isolated case of a sick individual who probably had substance abuse problems as well as some unknown mental issues. Aside from the religious apsect that was conveniently injected into the formula, ask yourself what RIGHT person would do such a thing? Jeezus, folks....
Well aside from this, has anyone heard about the 15 month old that was shot by police in LA today? His father used him as a human shield to shoot another officer and in a kneejerk reaction for fear of the lives of the other officers, they opened fire and hit the baby in the head. Geez, and they complain about civilians not being able to use guns...
Hey if he could do that to an infant, a full grown human being would be no problem..this is how most killers start out, with small animals and children (out of fascination and the power they have over them) and then they graduate as their curiosity increases. Anyone remember about 6 or 7 years back when they interviewed this kid on Phil Donahue?
He killed his neighbor's 5 year old boy out of curiosity, and he had a twisted half smile as he described how he bashed him with a rock after he was dead, over and over, and how he was fascinated by the changes in his face as he amassed more physical damage and it made him do it more. I was completely horrified..what causes stuff like this?

That is some ignorance then. I mean, thinking a three year old could be gay, then beating him and chucking him against walls? I think any sane person knows that it is wrong, and nothing, be it the kids sexuality or whatever excuses it. If he argues he was ignorant, then he is still deserving of punishment, even more so.
cking, why are you insisting that anyone who chucks infants at walls and beats their head in is sane? Ignorance is merely a hint at what this man is, the only reason you're defending him is because he killed the baby for religious reasons, appareantly you can't have an abortion, but by all means beat your gay child [/sarcasm].
Perhaps. But generally in cases like this the majority has some manner of problems, and if in this case he is sane ignorance is no defence. I mean, I mean most people I am sure have learnt the basics of right and wrong by the age of five, so I don't see how this guy could plead ignorance. I mean, firstly his views on gays is totally wrong, and chucking a three year old against a wall? Beating him till he wets himself? If he isn't mentally ill then he deserves life.
