description: Just something i wrote a little blog entry for and was wondering on your points of view and what you think of mine Quote: The other day at school, we got on the subject on if being sentenced to die is correct or if we should abolish it. Everyone in the class went one way or the other with out any real thought besides me. wassat Okay, tell me this. Why can a Man/Woman take a child, rape it, kill it in the most vial , painful way you can think of. The victum goes though the worst pain you can imagine, things that you don't even want to think of. Screaming for help , but the cries go unheard. THen they are thrown into a lake and left there for months until the body is finaly recovered. Then, their murderer is found. He is brought in front of a jury of his / her peers and sentenced to die by leathal injection. A process that does not hurt AT ALL thanks to the drugs they give you before they actually proceed killing you. You basicly go to sleep as peacefully as can be. In a thought , the cards have been delt and the peice of scum has died, justice served in some's eyes, mine not being one of them. Okay, tell me this. WHY should someone that could do this to a child, or anyone for that matter , for NO reason what so ever, put someone else through so much pain, and the family of freinds included and then get to die so peacefully? WHY? This is where my view gets a tad twisted, but follow me. I belive they should have to go through pain, i mean absolute boarderline torture. The fuckers do NOT deserve rights, they took a life, a beutiful life, one of Gods creations. They didn't give that poor dieing woman /man / child the right to life, they stole that from them in the most brutal of ways. THEY SHOULD NOT BE GIVING THE PLEASURE OF DIEING WITH A GOD DAMN NEEDLE THAT PUTS THEM TO SLEEP. They shouldn't even be gave a last meal, a last phone call, nothing. That would be nice, and these people are not NICE. "Well, what way would YOU suggest changing this??" wassat People always co…

description: Incognito While I find myself agreeing with you, I must disagree with your seventh paragraph. It isn't just the meal, phone calls, and lethal drugs that drives the cost up, it's the years of appeals. Each court case costs money, and who pays for it? The government. This is where most of the costs come from. As you suggested, the execution date should be moved up a lot. I wouldn't go as far as saying 2 months because this doesn't leave enough time to double check the evidence to ensure that they are, in fact, putting the right person to death for the crime they have been charged.

If I was found guilty of killing 200 people in cold blood, and I was faced with the death sentence or a life in prison...that's a no brainer right there. I don't agree with the death penalty because you're just doing the guy a favor.

Yea, humane is not something these people deserve though. THey are hate breeding bastards who deserve to die in the most vial way possible. Life in prison is worse yes, but know why? Because they go through ZERO pain when they die. MAbey if we maid death penelty a little worse , then you could say well i think death penelty is worse Also i dis-agree with life prision enless its in an 8 x 5 cell with NO TV , no special meals, no visits, nothin. They live live there life with nothing but a bed a toilet (thats me being nice ) and a large black man named tiny.

description: If they spend life in prison, they live in fear. I mean, you are housed with tons of other criminals, who could potentially attack you. Have you seen that part in the Shawshank Redemption where Andy Dufraine gets attacked by those 3 guys? That kind of thing is not entirely uncommon. Its a more gruelling experience that taking the needle. But then all this brings up the question, "When is it OK to sentence someone to death when you can throw them in prison?"

Sending them to prision for life takes tax dollars to house them, give them electricity and all the other extra crap we shoudlnl't be giving them, it takes time and pay to give to gurads who risk tehre lives when they don't have to around these types of people. If we would just kill them wiht a bullet and throw them in a unmarked grave it would be no problems.

description: If you took a gun to their heads, that would be painless also. Once that bullet hits your head... You aren't gonna feel any pain. It would be tough finding someone to do this though. If you are going to kill someone, I suppose Riding the Lightning would hurt like hell. This is a tricky topic. We want pain and possible death to be inflicted on a criminally insane murderer, but we don't want their death to be quick. Is is better to inflict pain and kill them or let them rot in jail? Yes it would cost money to keep them in jail, but while they are there, they will lament over who they killed. I think this is puts the minds of the victim's family at rest.

description: They don't lament in jail if they don't feel remorse. That is the key determining factor between lifetime imprisonment and sentencing to death. If we could determine the remorse in a criminal's mind we could make a just and righteous judgement. Without this we are left to guess.

That way, society isn't financially hurt and they aren't dying from a sociopathic killer. If you're referring to morality, then the only morals that matter are your own. And mine say that killing, while sometimes justified, is always wrong.

description: The big problem with sentancing someone to death is that they usually live longer than the average lifer. Their should be a maximum timespan on death penalty appeals, say about 2 years. If they can't be proven innocent of the crime in that period of time then it's their tough luck. Also, the methods of executionhave gotten as soft as the fat cat lawyers. A person guilty of brutally murdering another person or persons should be either hung(preferably in public. and before you ask there are methods of hanging that are instant), electrocuted, or gas chambered. These methods are not overly inhumane and are violent enough for the families of the victims to get some sense of revenge from the whole thing.

Also, even with LI someone has to stick the needle in his arm.

description: Its called disabling someone. If someone holds a gun to your head, you hit their hand or gun to point in a safe direction then pry the gun off them, dispose of it, or use it against them You don't neccessarily have to shoot them. If you do shoot someone, however, you don't have to shoot to kill. Police learn to aim for non-vital, but disabling parts of the body to shoot. If someone attacks me with their bare fists, knife, gun whatever, I get the better of them so they can't harm me in any way, I'm NOT going to proceed and beat the shit out of them untill they die. Quote: After not playing football for a year i got alota pent up rage anyway, it would be great to take it out on a murderer. The thing about football is, when you produce that much adrenaline and beat the shit out of someone every day of the year, going cold turkey is tough. If it costs less than a dollar to kill an attacker, it costs less not to kill him. If you defend youself against an attacker, but proceed to kill him, then that could be deemed as "overkill" (non legal term btw). You could be liable for that. The idea is to send people to prison and rehabilitate them. Not just kill them on the spot. Thats why prisons have libraries, teachers, and thats why you can learn a trade if you are in prison long enough so when you are released, you won't resort to crime.

I got news for ya, if you try to disable someone with a gun Their gonna shoot you dead. Give em a bullet first and you live. Its that simple. and like i said before, I wouldnt take someones life unless it was lawful, as in Self Defense. If they point a gun at me on my property or on neutral ground when I have a concealed weapon(with permit) I have all the right in the world to shoot them. Now if i miss and hit them in the leg and their gun is thrown form the bullet shot, then I wouldnt kill them. I wouldnt just kill someone to watch them die. Thats what a murderer does.

Stop working around the question. Well, arguements aside, you can't call him against what he said if you change the question without telling anyone. Original question: Quote: Its called disabling someone.[b] If someone holds a gun to your head[b], you hit their hand or gun to point in a safe direction then pry the gun off them, dispose of it, or use it against them You don't neccessarily have to shoot them.

description: I think he means a magnum with a 10 foot barrel. Quote: See that's where natural selection comes in. ROFL Biology is useful all of a sudden! @Nodbugger Police shoot to kill as a last resort. By that I mean they will aim for the upper chest to hit the heart, or somewhere around. They will probably puncture a lung in the process. But if they aim a little lower down, they aren't going to kill the person. If they hit the liver, it will regenerate. They may aim for the legs or possibly shoulder. Any other organs in that area could probably be healed in a hospital. It all depends on the senario. If its a robber who stole from a 7/11 and is running away, the police won't shoot to kill, they will shoot to disable. In this senario where the criminal has a gun to someone's head, they would shoot to kill.
