    The scumbag maybe won't do it next time now will he? I applaud the heavy sentences being handed out. Maybe the courts have begun to realise that left wing sentencing just is not enough to keep the growing number of disgusting people in this country from behaving like animals.

    You know, not everything is anti-Irish by the way.


    I've no problem with people who participated in the rioting and looting getting a harsh sentence, maybe it will make them think twice about doing it again.

    As for saying it's unfair because people who do worse get less, then my issue here is that those that did worse didn't get a harsh enough sentence, it is their lenient sentence that should be condemned not the tougher sentences that were actually handed out for a change.

    But 2 years is a joke, that's a year of someone's life spent in jail, because they might have gone to steal something worth about 6 pound.

    Shouldn't have went to participate then, I've no sympathy for him I only wish harsher sentences were handed out for all crimes instead of coming up with a bunch of excuses to lesson their sentence.
