Oscar Pistorius doesn’t think he should go to prison because it would be so awful. Okay, doubtless there are problems within the South African penal system. However, if Pistorius hadn’t discharged a weapon without actually seeing his target, it would be moot, wouldn’t it? My sympathies lie with the woman he shot due to his being an inadequate who used a gun as a penis substitute. Gaol is what he deserves – a good long sentence. And if he suffers, well, he brought it on himself. No sympathy.

The sentencing hearing is turning into a circus. How hard can sentencing be?
As for the pathetic arguments of his lawyers… I keep reminding myself that no matter how much poor Oscar feels he has suffered, it’s still nowhere near as much as Steenkamp, who had five bullets pumped into her through a door as she screamed for help…
The whole thing is a bloody travesty, if Pistorius had not been an Olympic athlete this would all be a moot point, the trial would not have taken months and ben televised the way it was, the Steenkamp’s would have been saved the media circus and Pistorius would already be behind bars serving the sentence he deserves.
Instead he has played to the gallery and played on his disability, believing he deserves special treatment.
Meanwhile Reva Steenkamp is pushing up the daisies and her family left bereft, they must be feeling very angry right now and this protracted sentencing is hardly helping them.
I have thought from the start that he was guilty and would get away with it. Fame and money talk far louder than a dead woman, as with O.J. Simpson.
Perhaps they should just do what the lawyers are begging for and simply release him onto the streets.
It’s a tough country, South Africa…
Either string the bastard up or lock him away in the equivalent of Broadmoor until he rots.
