oh dear Michael Barton

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Grim stuff.

Did they say why he got his just desserts? I wasn't aware of socially-minded people inside the prison.

Yeah, but there are black people in prison.

Incidentally, I wasn't looking closely and thought at first that this thread was about that skinny bint off The OC :oops:

True, but the attack that guy carried out was of such an horrific nature (I mean, to be capable of the level of brutality necessary to put an axe in someone's skull based simply on clapping eyes on them and seeing that they're black) and the absolute randomness that I can well imagine even other violent criminals would take exception to it.

I'm a hang-em-and-flog-em liberal, and like those NMA boys, I do firmly believe in justice, vengeance, and "getting the bastard".
And quite frankly, I don't think there's much this particlar bastard doesn't richly deserve.

What a lovely derail! :lol:

Please don't anyone believe that I'm actually opposed to what has happened; I like the idea of criminal justice. Anyone read Pratchett? The Thieves Guild combats crime far better than the civil police force...

I have to say I'm with you there, Timothy... it is often commented on that even in prison there is still some moral code - most hardened criminals would still be disgusted by a paedophile in their midst for example. You can get carried away with that idea of convicts with honour, but I think it shows up a rather f**ked up world where you have to rely on inmates to inflict some fitting punishment on the worst criminals in our society.
Let me 'ave a go! :twisted:

As far as I know, this isn't the full story. The two had allegedly met before; it seems that Anthony Walker had given Michael Barton the kicking of his life a couple of weeks previously (in retaliation at racist abuse).

Not that this in any way justifies sticking a mountaineering axe in someone's head, obviously.
