But who is to determine that? A jury?
If there was a viable alternative to eliminating a pregnancy while keeping the fetus alive, I would be in favor of banning abortion. Until then, however, I am pro-choice.
And if a criminal's mere existance threatens society, then I am in favor of killing him.
But who is to determine that? A jury?
Why would it be? Are you talking about science or evolution? Predestination? I'm not sure I understand where you're coming from. The government is in place to prevent some "natural reactions" from happening for the greater good of society.Why would it not be a natural reaction?
No, he should be beaten severely and put under tighter restraints... along with having his sentence increased, if applicable.What if some one who murders a person is sent to jail and kills a guard? Should he be put to death then?
It was a rhetorical statement... you can't really determine that. Chances are, if he's locked up tight enough, he's not threatening society.But who is to determine that? A jury?
Unless he has magic witch powers...
And that's your idea of a more humane solution? 40 years of torture? Death seems more kind.
I mean we are all going to die anyway...not all of us are going to be tortured and imprisoned until we die.
....but then we would have Salem!
That should be up to the prisoner. If death is better, he can kill himself.And that's your idea of a more humane solution? 40 years of torture? Death seems more kind.
Give them all a noose.
A bit of an overstatement... Such punishment would only be applied as a result of wrongdoing.40 years of torture?
Whoa man...you're a dumbass if you think things like murder are passed on to somebody through their genes.
...and I'd say the odds in his environment are probably 50/50 that at 18, he HAS passed on his genes.
"An eye for an eye" isn't a true christain train of thought...it's a primary creed of the Torah and the Koran and only appears in the Torah portion of the bible...Christ never advocated an eye for an eye. He preached forgiveness, that was the major tenet of his preaching.
And what that "an eye for an eye" train of thought gets you is the Palestinian Israeli conflict.
Christianity preaches forgiveness, that's what separates it from both Judaism and Islam...at the same time...I don't think Christianity advocates total stupidity...and sooner or later the line has to be drawn...at some point a civilization has to step in and protect it's own citizens.
And that brings us back to Protection vs. Vengeance.I don't think Christianity advocates total stupidity...and sooner or later the line has to be drawn...at some point a civilization has to step in and protect it's own citizens.
Both still in the bible and both used to promote one view or the other. I didn't say it made sense."An eye for an eye" isn't a true christain train of thought...it's a primary creed of the Torah and the Koran and only appears in the Torah portion of the bible...Christ never advocated an eye for an eye. He preached forgiveness, that was the major tenet of his preaching.That line moves a lot -- as long as we have a democracy and a common law system it will continue to do so.sooner or later the line has to be drawn...at some point a civilization has to step in and protect it's own citizens.
good riddance.
the really sick part is that it has taken 19 years to finally get to this point.
wish i could be thereExecution Tonight
too bad its not one of these
I'm all for public executions. If we're going to kill guys and say it's a deterrent, let's go all the way.
Now why would you say that? That's a ing stupid statement...you don't think someone could be genetically predisposed to murder? To mental conditions that would make someone capable of murder with no remorse?
You're wrong, there are no gurantees that will happen..but there's a damn good gurantee for assuring it won't happen. ...and other times...
it's a family thing.
Don't ride a tricycle on a racecar track.
I'm with ChumpDumper on this one...
How the heck does one order his last meal and can one really enjoy it knowing that after you've stuffed your face and feel that familiar sleepy feeling after eating a great meal that it'll be the last nap you'll ever take?
I'd ask for beans so that I can let one rip just before I go.
Get a big steak and ask for it WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL DONE!!! You'll live longer that way.
All together now...
10, 20, 30, 40, 50 a more
Death row guy let a fart in the makeshift morgue
80 men died trying to hold their breath
Death row guy let another and killed the rest.
Yes, and could you trim the fat please.
It would be neat if they would show an actual execution.
No I don't think they are. But I don't think there are mental conditions that are inheritable that would cause someone to murder a person.

it's a good question. i think crazy could be genetic.
Ever heard of Bi-polar Duff?
