Hell no. The longer they're put away and unable to steal cables the better. Can we do 25 years?

 

[epah]

Electrocute him.

Nah, they must just be put to death, easy.

 

[Dups!]

I hope they deport these f#&ers after serving time. Only if our borders weren't so porous.

There was one that survived electrocution?
We have a guy at the robots at our local shopping centre who looks like burnt toast from his previous occupation.

There's potholes across the country that need filling. If they can steal a cable they can fill a ditch. Put them to work.

They can't even keep the criminals properly locked up in a prison, now you want them to be taken outside?

hell yes. Chain them together like an old style chain gang so they can't run. If someone opens a lock and runs just shoot him.
