They should start shooting them off into space and see how far they can get in their lifetime. They are disposable right? Why not do something productive. haha

Re: Should the Death Penalty be Televised?!?

you think all people executed are GUILTY? wrong...


ohh, and violence begets violence. you show little kids actual people dying for real (read: not in a movie where they know its fake) and you're gonna desenstize them to violence. just look at the islamic countries where executions are public events held in packed soccer stadiums...those kids are screwed up day 1.

ey man, you say this cause you havent been kidnaped, i live in mexico, i was kidnaped 2 years ago, beliave me, its the worst fucking experience you could have, who the fuck cares about their dignity when they fuck with YOURS. i personally dont really care if they are guilty or not, there must be some reason why they have been supects, dont they?. we are talking about the lethal injection when in fact they should be fried or hung, or better then cut their fucking cock off IMO.

i do mean it, dont get political about this if you havent been there, you dont know whats to be defenseless against 5 assholes beating you till they get tire, with out knowing if your gonna live to tell this or not.

im not an agressive person, it is just i know how it feels so much anger and stay like that, cause if the kidnaper goes to the jail, eventually he will go out and start the same shit.

Re: Should the Death Penalty be Televised?!?

i agree with the death penalty, but putting it on telly will never stop people from killing or raping etc.. people will do what they are driven to do regardless. sure some people on death row are innocent, and a lot of people that should be on death row are out free. this legal system is FAR from perfect.. coughOJcough.
but if someone is on death row, i would venture a guess that they must have had a reason to be a suspect. not saying that justifies them being there, but hey, this is the system that is in place.
innocent people die every day, it is a sad fact of this fucked up world.
but someone saying they are against the death penalty i guarantee would be singing a different choon if their daughter, wife, mum, dad, son, brother, sister or other family member was brutaly raped and murdered and the offender gets to live in a prison for the rest of their lives.
it may make you feel good to say death sentence is barbaric and inhumane blah blah blah.. so is tying someone up, raping them and murdering them in front of their family.

murder = murder
violence begets violence
I say an eye for an eye bitches!

who says palmer is not witty.....mighty good idea if ya ask me...........we could surgically implant a camera in their retinas so we can get a first hand taste of what it is like to see you life played out in a tiny capsule shooting through space headed toward the outer reaches of darkness. and for even more kicks as they approach the asteroid belt we can give them a joysrtck controller and see who can navigate it the best

that would make arnold in running man look like a sissy

This is as a result of investigators being put under pressure to find the perp. I can't remember what state it was but once DNA methods became available 25% of the prisoners were found to be innocent. That's just plain unacceptable. This is where I disagree with some of you. I forget the saying but something along the lines of better to let 10 people go than to imprision 1 innocent person.

its called making a type I error vs making a type II error.

you'd much rather make a type II error (letting a guilty person go free) than make a type I error (convicting an innocent person)

Re: Should the Death Penalty be Televised?!?

If they did it right and actually tortured them first.

Re: Should the Death Penalty be Televised?!?

yes telvise it .

outside of a ratings jump for the chosen network, it would add a little motivation for our youth to stay out of crime when they see the electric chair victims pissing and shitting themselves while frying. im all for the death penalty for PROVEN murderers and rapists, but i draw the line right there.

Re: Should the Death Penalty be Televised?!?

You know what, perhaps if you publicly kill off a few of these killing bastrads you might find people discovering that, hey guess what you kill someone you die.
Please, let us not stop there, continue the trend, public cut off someone's nuts if they are caught raping, if you beat your kid how about tying that person to a chair and giving the kid a bat and if you can walk right after ten minutes I bet you won't beat that kid again.
I got more if you can stand it, public hangings et cetra. Bring it back people; let’s show our kids so they can see there are severe consequences for their actions. To many tear crying-right- voilating-ohh you are stepping on my heart-stupid wimps out there. How about if it was your Mom killed or raped or better yet your kid? Would you still cry for the felon and his rights? I know I would not give two damns for them and I would help pull the trigger or switch or hold the noose.
Oh what was that, you think I am a radical, well, so the hell what. It is my opinion; just thank your lucky stars I am not in charge. How is that? Sound off, let’s hear it.
