They caught the 16 year old kid who did it. Can we all agree an appropriate punishment would be to cut this kid in half with a chainsaw? There’s enough people on the planet to where we can do away with one foul seed. Saw him in half, cremate the remains in an empty oil drum then flush the ashes down the toilet. Send a bill to the parents for everything. 
 @344b0ae6 What a FUCKER! Why..? 
 @344b0ae6 obviously a sign of revolution on the horizon in the UK… just like Washington this youth cut down a tree, one day he will be king.

Politics is so weird these days, with all these old common laws on the books. 
 @344b0ae6 ooh, 16 years old. That boy's got 70-odd years to live with the knowledge that everybody on the friggin' planet hates him and will never forgive him.

I give him a year before he kevorks.
