Jul 25 2011: They should take this opportunity to open discussions on future laws. They should be discussed and a decision should be made. The discussion should take place soon enough so that the current event is still fresh in their mind but far enough in the future that the raw emotion shown in your question doesn't sway the outcome. I am against any government changing a law/punishment after the crime has occurred.
