Mid-afternoon, half-empty cafeteria, a group of smokers rush your coffee and the last puff of cigarette before returning to the office.
One sentence while leaving a tip.
- Marta The Castle is a shame. Until someone does not take the law into their own hands ...
The child dubbed 'The Cuckoo' has been acquitted of the crimes of rape and murder of Marta del Castillo and has been sentenced to three years imprisonment in a juvenile facility, followed by two years probation probation for a crime of concealment , according to the ruling issued today.
parents, who still do not know where the body of her daughter, who were unable to bury, are desolate and say they do not believe in justice.
Antonio del Castillo, father of the girl, said "Until something does not happen these to the daughter of an MP will not change anything."
I was thinking about this, I remembered an article Perez Reverte
"Today I want to talk about justice and revenge. Viewpoint subjective, of course, subject to error and bias groups. Outcome of fifty-seven years, some travel, books, and not forged in the goodism idiot-and-suicide of those who believe living in the forest in Bambi. The thing summarized in one question: What is wrong with revenge? ... I know that in Western society that word has a bad press.
We must forgive those who trespass, light your way and reintegrate early and others. But we forget one thing: the feeling of revenge, personal repair, is in our instinct. Comes, I guess, the time when we left the cave to find him a mammoth steak family. In my opinion, the revenge, in ancient or modern forms-is not bad. It is hygienic to mental health, and frustrates a lot to be deprived of it. What happens is that, if society is not a constant and uncomfortable navajeo, men resolved to entrust the State the monopoly of our settling of scores.
Insulted, wanting revenge and repair of those who offend us, we give the natural impulse to the institution that governs us, and represents, as appropriate compensation for the damage it received, out, or override the social risk that the offender may pose, and satisfy adequately punished to this, our logic, instinctive, atavistic desire for revenge.
It is no coincidence that it is precisely the marginal groups who do not believe in society or share their codes, always seeking to take revenge on his hand. Or that, in the movies, we like and calm in the end the bad guy dies. And the problem is that, in my opinion, arises when the State unable to map reveals commitment. To fulfill its obligation. Then comes the frustration of those who are without redress, defenseless against the evil done. Of those who see the murderer walking the streets with impunity, the scammer enjoy your money, the rapist out on the weekend to repeat exactly what you put in jail.
desires of those who are stuck in the tangle of incompetence, bureaucracy, laziness, demagoguery and bad faith that characterizes every human society. And, as icing, should be swallowed chewing discourse by those who delve increasingly, through ignorance, stupidity or calculation concerned, the gap between theory and reality. Between real life and dream life. And the simple swallow it.
The citizens reasonable and civilized who say they hate the crime but pity and help the offender: speech that is Chachi on TV, in newspaper editorial or coffee with friends, but it disappears when you leave your number. When they steal your house on your street assault or rape your daughter. Only a society strong and confident, tough and ruthless transgressors-watchers with offenders when they cross the line, eliminates the need for personal revenge. A society able to protect justice and serenity, but not complex. No sissy news.
If not, the laws made for protect honest people turn against itself. The tying of hands, coat of shameless becoming, predators and beasts without conscience. Frustrate the hope of the offended and I do regret sometimes deprived of the possibility of satisfying themselves the legitimate desire for revenge that the State timid, clumsy, inefficient, does not resolve on their behalf. Made that, you just prefer, and therein lies the real danger-a twelve-gauge, post rookery, leave me alone and pumba, pumba. Moreover, ultimately, is rhetoric and are milongas ".
Or change the law, or one day someone will say enough and take justice into their own hands.
As Reverte says, that "legitimate desire for revenge that the State timid, clumsy, inefficient, does not resolve on their behalf."
