Lost Prophets...

Just to clarify the music/storage thing. Professional Pro Tools session files can get big very quickly. A modern rock record of the style he made can easily have over 100 tracks in it. I've no doubt he would have had a full Pro Tools rig at home for working on stuff. It's just standard now.

A 4 minute song with 100 different parts in it, all recorded at 24 bit/192Khz will take up something like 13 gig of storage space. And thats just one song when finally edited...
 
It'd be better for him to suffer the FULL 35 years in solitary confinement. I always feel angry when i read of evil scum committing suicide/ being murdered in prison - death is like a get out of jail card - MAKE HIM SUFFER!!
 
Peter Sutcliffe is almost blind, not through natural causes, iirc.

Who cares anyway. I mean, I'd rather humans weren't disgusting animals, but, hey ho, they are. And I struggle to summon up much potential sympathy for Watkins.
 
Hoping and recognizing what may happen under certain conditions based on other similar situations are not the same thing.

Quite. Those acting out their sick fantasies of what they would like to happen though are not really doing themselves any favours.

I for one am content to know that this cunt will be locked up for an unimaginable length of time, surrounded by other cunts who think it will improve their cunt-cred to have a pop.
 
They did actually go public with how they're feeling around the time he pleaded guilty. God knows what they're thinking now though. I just dunno what would make a person turn like that? By all accounts he had a decent childhood and then became famous in early adulthood. Had the world on a plate really.
I know they did when he was arrested but reading that sentence summary (I could only stomach the first page), I don't know how you get beyond that

I'm sure there are some things that you would disown your children for. Perhaps when the sheer WTFness of it does sink in they'll see what's right. But for now I would imagine their minds are shot to fuck.

It's a bit of a conundrum isn't it? My whole schtick as a parent is that my love is unconditional. And then you read something like this and you can't imagine anything more horrific than having given birth to a thing that could do this.
 
This thread's pretty calm considering. A few years ago, you'd have had PK et al blothiating and pomposs twats telling them off.

Anyway I read the judge's remarks. What strikes me, along with the sheer disgusting nature of these crimes, is the mindset talked about earlier and mentioned in the link earlier. The mindset that still had him thinking he could in some way distance himself from them. That drug use, megalulz, whatever, somehow made it not a thing he'd done. The arogannt, deluded incredulity.

I heard similar weezley denials and ludicrous excuses when for work once, I sometimes had to listen to interviews concerning Operation Ore. Fortunately although I never heard anything this bad, I always had a respect for the interviewing officers restraint. Imagine those sat opposite Watkins,, putting stuff to him, listening, having to resist burying him in the wall.
 
Let's just hope the kids he abused get the support they need to make sure they're not ruined.

And I don't wish violence on him in prison - Violence is fuck all, I hope somehow he's made to confront the enormity of what he's done and realise that it was all his choice and that the choices he's made have put him in prison for thirty years. I hope he wakes up crying every morning for years to come.
 
I think I understand this thinking Cheesy however castration wouldn't necessarily stop abuse or the will to abuse.. Penetration is just one part of sexual abuse, it takes many forms..

i mean baby rapists or severe mollesters such as he. I'm sure there are grades of paedophiles and the most savage (Grade A, if you like) deserve castration.
 
no but removal of balls/cock in a grown man won't stop urges. Even pre-pubescent de-balling of the castratti choirboys didn't render them devoid of urges as they grew older
 
So this is castration as revenge rather than therapy/prevention?

Punishment for raping a baby. I would hope that such a punishment might detract other would be baby rapists but i doubt it would. He deserves to suffer and have his ability to masturbate over his sick paedophilic fantasies taken away forever.

And your thoughts on the cutting off of hands of convicted thieves are?

agree with you... The religious answer is love the sinner hate the sin, which is easy to say, but difficult to imagine how that actually works in practice.

I also feel sorry for the rest of the band, his ex girlfriends etc- you'd forever be looking back wondering if you missed something, every memory would be tainted.

Edited to correct spelling!
 
I don't feel that sorry for the band - they might not have known the extent of his tastes but they would have certainly known about him and very young fans.
