It doesn't?
I'll bet it mattered to the 2 people he killed, and their friends, and their families.
If liberals weren't such ******s, then they wouldn't be liberals.
And if Christians really believe in the message of Christ and forgiveness... Never mind.
I won't argue that liberals do appeals to emotion but on this topic and many others... emotion is the right's domain. economic and social justice is often sold with emotion but it's not solely emotion. It's also a version of seeking economic stability as a nation. I know the right doesn't believe it but it is at the root of the left's argument.
See X Factor? appeal to emotion with a non sequitur.
How many hours has the families and friends of his victims suffered? If liberals weren't such ******s about the DP, they would of had proper drugs. Of course,.rope and a gallows is a lot cheaper and wouldn't have taken so long
I disagree
on some issues the (bible thumping) right appeals to emotion
anti abortion
gays in the military
flag burning
prayer in school
and the left does it in
1) gun control
2) "economic justice"
3) "free" health care
4) any redistributionist nonsense
5) affirmative action
We still have the 8th amendment, no matter what he did.

Another botched execution. 2 hours to die. That is cruel and unusual. The death penalty needs to go. [/FONT][/COLOR]
Which doesn't mean what he did "doesn't matter". It most certainly does matter. I doubt you'd rejoice if you had a family member killed and it was discounted as something that "doesn't matter".

Fortunately the founding fathers weren't so stupid as to make the constitution one giant appeal to emotion and instead focused on the rational decision making of law.
I never said it "didn't matter" in a general sense. I said it doesn't matter with regards to how we treat the inmate.
Easy for you to say since you didn't know the victims. Nor did I, but I'm grown up enough to know that having someone you love get murdered isn't something that "doesn't matter". And since the 2 people who he killed aren't here to give their input, we can probably safely assume they didn't say "Yay! I'm being murdered!".
I don't believe that anyone ever took 2 hours to die after their heads were chopped off by the guillotine.
And they surely weren't gasping for air.
The murder was about the victims.
The death sentence is about the another person.
You are making a false choice of if one is against the death penalty and doesn't fully agree with you about how this man should die and also agree with you about how horribly he should die... then I don't have any sympathy for the aforementioned murdered and family of the murdered. Simply not true and whole-heartily disingenuous on your part in seeking support with an appeal to emotion based on this falsehood.
It is never surprising to see a liberal expressing more concern for the perpetrator of a serious crime than for the victims of that crime.
Disgusting, yes.
Depressing, yes.
But surprising, never.
It seems to be one of the defining characteristics of American liberalism to be on the side of the criminals, and against that of honest people.
You didn't need to restate the obvious.
See X Factor? appeal to emotion with a non sequitur.
That's rather really ****ed up that you would do that.
Maybe you should take a look at what they did to prisoners and murders during their time.
Hell, I'm all for bringing back the stocks. Whipping. etc. They knew how to take care of criminals.
See X Factor... another appeal to emotion with this same non sequitur. Being against the death penalty in no way is siding with the criminal. Another...er... actually the same repeated BS argument gone down the toilet.
