thats complete bullshit, if your talking about rational actions, then yes, your right, but most people arent rational 100% of the time, and as already pointed out by some of the more intelligent people than I, most murders are not pre-planned and thought out, they are spontaneous, fear of consequences doesnt come into it.-tal- said:It's only when the people fear the consequences of something enough that they won't do it.
Sure, most murders aren't planned - and in these cases, it probably wasn't maliciously intended. Which means, in my books, I'd call it manslaughter. I don't think the crime of manslaughter warrants the death penalty.townie said:thats complete bullshit, if your talking about rational actions, then yes, your right, but most people arent rational 100% of the time, and as already pointed out by some of the more intelligent people than I, most murders are not pre-planned and thought out, they are spontaneous, fear of consequences doesnt come into it.

if i chopped your mums head off then raped her headless body and then used her head as a dartboard, i dont think you'd be very happy
but suppose i dont stop there and do it to your sister and countless others, are you stupid for saying no to the death penalty
beheading your mother would be one thing, inflicting it upon your sisters and countless and then GETTING AWAY WITH MURDER BECAUSE STUPID LOSERS say 'no to the death penalty', i think i'd do it again to another family if i got the chance (which is given by the idiots since im still alive)
so use some common sense, the death sentence should be used appropriately in cases such as ed kemper

If someone kills another, we'll have the state kill them. If someone steal a piece of jewelery, we'll steal a piece of jewelery from them.
However, my proposal will not apply for crimes in which people may be willing to try their chances, such as drug importation, or drug dealership.
Wow thanks for using a retarded emotional anecdotal argument instead of any proof that the death penalty serves any place in a modern society. It doesn't. Don't be a moron.Colonel.Burton said:for those that voted no to the death penalty

Please. You don't get found guilty of a crime if you are innocent.Pacchiru said:yeh but, someone could be accused of killing. gone to court and such and still proven 'guilty'
we end up killing an innocent person.

Because for murder and rape, the victim doesn't want to get killed or raped. Drug trafficking isn't on the same level as murder. There has to be drug users for there to be demand for drugs anyway.Tully B. said:IF you're going to say people should go to jail for murder and rape, then why not drug trafficking? Murder can at least be done by accident, or in the "spirit" of the moment. Drug traffickers must put a lot of thought into what they are doing before they destroy the lives of many, and in the case of many drugs, kill many people. NOTHING can hide this from them, so why do they continue doing it? Don't call it fucking manslaughter, because that makes me think that manslaughter is, in some cases, worse than murder and rape. Seriously.
No, I don't support the death penalty.
