http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/8654604.stmGiven the views expressed by many on these forums, including my self, regarding the punishment of certain criminals. What are your thoughts? A job well done / Just retribution, or horrific behaviour?

It had to be pie. No Britons were involved.

Horrific behaviour.
The guy is alleged to have confessed to the crime, but that doesn't mean he'd been through a fair trial and convicted. The villagers essentially took the law into their own hands and became judge, jury and executioner.

Horrific uncivilised behaviour.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Innocent until proven guilty. He was only suspected of the crime, so this was totally out of order.

Bang out of order.
“What's that? A crime? Why, that's a good excuse. Let's kill the interloper / foreigner / immigrant / frog / kraut / spick / dego / ivan / nig-nog / kike / whatever.*”
Anyone who behaves like that, either through vigilante-ism or by voting for a Nationalist party, is an idiot.
*Delete as appropriate

The police should have protected this man until at least he had been tried. Also he "confessed" which might have been rather convenient.
