The Death Penalty

[Decisive]

Screw life in prison and screw death. I say they should start torchering prisoner. Start peeling their skin and throw lemon juice on them. Cut some fingers off with a dull knife. Torchering would make me stop committing crime.

Bullets = less expensive than food, clothing and shelter for offenders.

Personally I couldn't care. It's their life they've decided to fuck up.

Its not the actuall killing that is expensive, its the court cases and all the bullshit before hand.

I doesnt really bother me either, i just dont like the idea of government having the power to kill people.

I think there should be concentration camp type facilities for the murderers.

Why should we give them food, shelter and more or less fair treatment, do they deserve it?

 

[Shredderbeam]

Actually it doesn't stop them because they can continue killing in prison, or escape and decide to go on a killing spree.

That is a flaw of the prison system that needs to be remedied.

i'm a big fan of the law code made by hamurabbi (i think) that states an eye for and eye.

So, if I put out your eye, my eye will be surgically removed?

They should have a choice if the person who was raped or something but not dead he/she should decide the punishment for them.

I wouldn't trust an emotionally disturbed woman to choose an appropriate punishment.

Good thing that unstable people like you are kept out of the legal system these days.

ok thanks for the clarification. Also im not sure how much you would know about this, but does the average person who might get the death penalty have the necessary financial savings to spend large sums of money on lawyers to appeal their cases? Lol who would loan money to someone that might get the death penalty?

This is actaully one of the controversial issues with capital punishment. Is it fair for minorities and poor? No not really, because in most cases the lawyers that are appointed give little to no representation.

What if they are truly innocent, and don't have much evidence against them? I suppose they should just be shot with bullets, yeah that's fair.

I still think torchering would do the thing. Being in jail or being executed on puts fear for a small time period. There is more fear when your thinking if you're going to get your eyes pulled out, teeth yanked out, or nails plucked off. That is why countries with cruel punishments have more order such as Korea. Fear is needed to control people.

That was the style of thinking in the Middle Ages. You could be hanged for stealing a loaf of bread. Too bad it didn't work out.

3. Acts as deterrent. already said flawed

Serial killer don't tend to give a shit also if there fucked up enough to want to kill someone and accutally do it there not think "I might get zapped for this."

Thats the same as the death penalty. I say forget that. Tourcher them, but don't kill them. Let them feel pain and suffer. Would you like your fingers cut of with a dull knife one by one and still live and haveno finger?

They also had various forms of torture (thumbscrews, knives, heated iron, etc.). Again: It did not work.

Well in my country max. penalty is 25 years so...I can do what Saddam and others have done and my max. penalty is 25 years. I Know is stupid but...It's the true.

 

[wagwannadon]

Shouldn't kill them, solitary confinement for the rest of their lives I think is better.

 

[helloos]

It's mistake that makes us human however,should the serial killer continues the killing,i guess there's no help it,there goes the death sentence.Why do we keep a single black dot in a white sheet if it causes all the trouble? So just terminate the black dot by cleaning it off the white sheet.Problem solved.

About the torture thing...it's unhuman. Your suggesting to be like the killer,torture people and have the satisfaction.
