          @BBCBreaking Pah. Killing a person to show that killing people is wrong. It's completely illogical

          @MrDelgado194 @BBCBreaking every action has a consequence... And sometimes that consequence/punishment needs to mirror the crime committed..

          @BBCBreaking @BBCWorld In death #Tsarnaev will get what he wants: a martyr 4 his cause. Life in solitary confinement would be more fitting.
