Kneecaps

If this is true, I am going to advocate physical punishment for the perpetrators.

Swedish television is plugging a program about a girl who lost her father in the Estonia tragedy of 1994. A life insurance gave the girl $60,000, a sum that was placed in the care of a chief guardian designated by the city council of Vetlanda. When the girl turned 18, there was the eqvivalent of a dime left in the account.

This is not enough for me to swing towards supporting the death penalty, but it’s certainly worth a tireiron to the kneecaps.

If you’re in Sweden, it’s on SVT1 this Wednesday, April 22, at 8 pm.
