[phild]

This is one of the most diabolical and harrowing articles I have ever read

If there was ever a need to bring back hanging then this was it. And whatever little sympathy I have for some of these homeless arseh0les sitting around cash points it is now zilch.

This happened around a mile from my house and is the only crime in this area that comes even close to the Carl Bridgwater murder in 1978.

People like Aaron Barley are always likely to kill at some point,it's not a matter of "if" but "when" I think.

Same with the bloke in Las Vegas,you just have to hope that you and yours are not in the crosshairs of these type of nutters.

It's unfair to tar all homeless people with the same brush.

It's a sobering thought that had the daughter originally walked past Barley as he sat on the pavement outside Tesco's, her Mom and brother would still be here today enjoying a good family life. The only remorse this guy showed was that he couldn't kill the whole family. Its proof indeed that locking this f***wit up is a waste of tax payers money rather than just putting him out of his misery. Some people simply are not woth perservering with or saving as they are beyond it.

I think if you have a desire to get involved with homeless people on the street, you're better doing through a third party than direct as these poor people found out to their cost. Several years ago in London whilst walking one evening, a homeless guy was begging. I went to a nearby Pret and bought him a sandwich and drink and took it over to hand it to him. He jumped up in a real rage pushing me and screaming in my face that he wanted "fu***ng money not food" Had it not being for several eyewitnesses present, I could have ended up on an assault charge which for a while was a possibility the police were keen to pursue. I haven't given to anyone on the street since based on my experience as you never know quite who you're dealing with. Some people are on the street through plain bad luck, others are there for a reason such as the nutcase who committed these murders.
