Not having the death penalty hasn't deterred anyone from committing crimes either. Who knows how many others have been deterred by having the possibility of execution in the law . Not having that possibility certainly won't deter anyone.

There are some people who just don't deserve to live.

But who has the right to make the judgement call?
What does the law say?

The laws differ in each state but it is our court system that has the right to make the call. Lynch mobs are no longer tolerated...darn it.

I'm pleased to hear that rkunsaw. I was beginning to wonder.

Just teasin' :devil:

He got justice.
He had no sympathy for the one he killed.

For him a short rope and a long drop would have been to good.

It has been discovered that a number of executed 'murderers' weren't guilty of the crime either.
Too bad none of them have been able to be resurrected. Collateral damage?

Its very easy to fix that one,just dont do the crime and get arrested.

 

[Davey Jones]

. There is no excuse for torturing the condemned person before execution, no matter what crime he or she is guilty of.

Tell that to the victims and their families,those people suffer the most.

I sincerely hope nothing tragic happens to the people who are against capital punishment. They will have to two sufferings, the loss of someone close and eating their words.

I agree SB, "An eye for an eye" ! In some countries, they cut off your hand for stealing.

Yeah, that's the infamous Sharia Law that we have no need for in a civilized world.

Jesus wasn't a murderer, and I believe he was seen to be a good influence on the people around him.

He was seen as a dangerous rebel by those in power.

The people around him all the time were males,was he gay?
