Ever Feel Like Killing Someone...
- Thread starter H8R
- Start date
Sorry but IMO, child rapists and murderers forfeit the right to be treated fairly by an enlightened civilization.
If you rape a kid or murder someone, you "opt out". No mercy.
I feel like killing someone all the time. So long as I don't act on those feelings (or if they don't find the body/bodies) I'm ok.
I'd risk anything to save my kid. Any real father would risk going to prison (or being put to death) if it meant saving the life of a child.
I'd want to make REAL sure the person was a threat though, and that killing them was the ONLY option. That's self defense, not murder.
Or nu-metal.
Sure but the only way you'd ever know for certain would be post-act, and what father is gonna wait for that to happen? I know I wouldn't.I'd risk anything to save my kid. Any real father would risk going to prison (or being put to death) if it meant saving the life of a child.

You also ducked my question about percentage of dead good guys vs dead bad guys.
You six sigma blackbelts are just never satisfied
legitimate excuse for murder...but try roughing the guy up first
I think if they would stop wasting time on people they know beyond a shadow of a doubt are guilty and just get it over with then could spend more time and resources on the iffy cases.
So...percentages? I dunno. Point 5? Point 005? Improve the system to decrease or eliminate the likelihood of mistakes. Then proceed. Whatever the number is we live with it.
How many people killed on death row per year are later found to be innocent? How many come close and are let off?
How many scum bags kill people and rape children and get three hot meals a day?
48 hours of Mudvayne and I slit my own throat.
Reminds me of the episode of SNL where they stick Hanson in an elevator and subject them to endless loops of MmmBop.
Except your links were vague and without some sort of thesis from you, it's unclear where you're going with it.
Except that there's whole cities around the world, esp. Australia that have a VERY high (if not maximum) population gun rate. When nearly everyone is armed, you get very little crime.
I think one city in OZ required every citizen to carry. Low crime.
well if theres facts to back that up, then it just seems totally outa whack...the more guns, the less crime....it sounds weird, but if it works, then thats great. id be all for it
I'm just saying that it has worked, doesn't mean it's actually a good idea.
LO isn't familiar with stats 101, outliers are not the general picture even if they are factual rather than BS stories you heard about
You posts are outliers, so take that!LO isn't familiar with stats 101, outliers are not the general picture even if they are factual rather than BS stories you heard about
The US has the highest gun population in the developed world and one of the highest crime rates. Crime has little to do with gun ownership and more to do with economic and social disparity.
well im just saying that something as crazy sounding as it is, would make people hesitant about the idea....but like i said, if it worked than great. im sure it wont be a good idea for cities like New Orleans, Detroit or Camden
I agree completely.
I'll buy that for a dollar
So then why did you offer up your outlier then

try reading the thread. Did you see what I posted in relation to the quote? The thread evolved, unlike your comprehension skills.
he done git his learning done at the GED class
Stop getting your information on Australia from Paul Hogan movies and Steve Irwin.
You've never been able to own handguns easily in Australia and the ownership of guns in general has been tightened since 1996. The death penalty was abolished everywhere in the 80's and the last execution was in 1968.
The most recent year figures were available for has homicides (all causes) at historically low levels. Make of that what you will.
Some of you have the idea that prison as it is now is some kind of wonderland of joy instead of already being the worst place on Earth, well other than anywhere in a mile radius of N8.
No different than home to some.

So wouldn't it be better to make that better rather than make prison worse? Of course it's easier to make prison worse and there's votes in it.
His English is FAR better than most of the whipping boys' from the lounge. Seriously...hell, I'm gonna rep him for it...lack of causal connections aside.
That's the most insightful statement in the thread...lotta truth in that to chew on. I have a feeling we'll end up drawing opposing conclusions from it, however...
Even worse would be 2MB on loop. Cut out any semblance of variety.
True dat. Loopy was out of order there...
My only real objection to the death penalty is that eventually innocent people will be killed in error (or worse for political purposes). The only way to avoid that is not to use the death penalty. Any punishment that is not permanent is far better as innocent people can be reprieved.
I totally agree that some scum cannot be rehabilitated and should be permanently removed from society. I also understand the thirst for revenge. But the danger of killing the wrong people still prevents me from supporting the death penalty.
How about for example:
DNA evidence confirms that a man raped and killed a child. (semen, etc)
= instant death. The day the sentence is handed down.
That ok with you?
