I tend to agree. Banged up in some jail somewhere for years they'll not only be acting as reminders to those like them but quite possibly able to spread their hatred further, directly or indirectly, at some point. You can bet there'd have been appeals and more appeals along the way, all generating further publicity for their cause. This way they'll be long forgotten, just another few sad people whose lives were ended because they chose to be grievously offended by satire. Pathetic really.
