I hope they don't get the death penalty either, but this is because I am unconditionally opposed to the death penalty.

While I am not unconditionally opposed to the death penalty, I do believe this would be the "easy" way out for them. Let them rot in jail. Now, if only we could put them in a cell with "Bubba", without them being killed. Would Allah still love them after they'd taken up the butt?

I agree with MJ. I think the whole "you can't kill, but if you do something horrible, we can kill you and it's okay" argument seems stupid to me. There are some circumstances of course that it could apply to be okay in my eyes, but this is not one of them.

If you kill someone then you should be killed. An eye for an eye, I say.
I think this would drastically decrease the amount of murders out there. |
That may be true, but you also have to rule in stuff like accidental murders, vehicular manslaughter, wreckless driving that casued a wreck which resulted in death. What if you kill somebody in self defense? There's millions of variables that makes it too complicated on either side.

Hammurabi's Code is outdated...
|
An eye for an eye just leaves the whole world blind.

There are so many technicalities and loopholes in the 'life in jail' sentence. Announcing that one will be lethally punished should he/she take a life is a much stronger stance than life in jail.
|
I know what you're saying, and we're going to disagree and probably never change each others minds about it, I just feel that if you're going to outlaw murdering people, then don't by hypocritical in the judicial system by doing so as punishment. I think most inmates would agree that Life in jail (or multipule sentances of it) are worse than just being axed off.

Tell that to a daughter who's mother was raped, tortured and dismembered.
In this case I don't nessicarily think the death penalty is proper, but I am just certain that there is cases in which the death penalty is justified. Your arguement is that the government should not be allowed to kill someone for commiting a crime or crimes, when it is a crime to kill someone outside of the government. Then by this reasoning why the fuck is it ok for the government to steal earned income from working people to give it to people that do not earn it. When all along if it was a private organization doing this someone would be imprisioned. I smell a double standard. |

That argument would take this thread into an entirely different direction.. And it's not stealing. I mean if you don't like police, fire departments, public libraries, paved roads and public schooling then give up your citizenship and go live in fucking Congo,Africa |
They earn it bro. They do not apply to my rant, but you are right that's OT.
|
I say go old school, put a sponge on there head and zap away!
|
I'm against the death penalty. Never is it right to take another human's life. (but if it's an accident or in self defense it isn't a crime.)
Why should the law commit a crime? Does not compute. |

Well no it does not make sense. You would not get the death penalty for self defense manslaughter, if it can be proven to be self defense you will not be in trouble at all. second you wouldn't stab anyone with a gun, you would simply be shot end of story.
Also, D3v there is no such thing as accidental murder, the legal definition of murder includes the word aforethought |
