Datamonkee said:Oh, I agree with you.. I think executions should be pay-per-view, and the proceeds should go to the very prison system that holds the execution. Murderers, rapist, nor child molestors deserve no human consideration or dignity.

I don’t like you. I don’t like your picture. Who was your photographer?! I don’t like how you are dressing. What thrift shop you got your hat from? It is completely out of my taste.Naughty Nurse said:Of course it is. Good family entertainment, in fact.
Che said:I think the best idea is just to lock the criminals up in a cell with no windows or light or human contact for the rest of there lives.

clone said:there is no "humane" way to kill a person. humane is defined as merciful or compassionate; death is neither of these. how do we know that firing squad isnt really less painful than lethal injection? the only people that have any insight on the matter are dead.
clone said:okay so lets see...
original convict murders someone.
he gets the chair - now the person who turned on the current is a murderer.
so in a perfectly fair world, he also gets the chair for murder.
now whoever turns the current on during his execution is also guilty of murder.
and the cycle goes on and on, until someone decides to commit suicide.
Ryuken said:"Muder" is killing someone out of hate. A man pulling the switch for a chair is not doing it out of hate, he is doing his job, and the person in the chair deserves it.
Ryuken said:it was inhumane of the people getting the death penalty to kill someone. Oh boy, look at me, I just killed someone, please dont do the same thing to me. Its humane that we dont shoot them on the spot and hang them, or maybe slit thier wrists.
clone said:when people die, there is proof of some endorphins being released into their system. For all we know, they could be going through a state of ecstacy while they die. We dont know. Even if we used the best scanning machines out there to see what signals the brain was recieving, we still would not be able to tell exactly what that person is feeling. There are too many variables.
Okay, so its not murder. its manslaughter. He is still killing someone. Who are you to decide who "deserves" death and who doesnt? Laws should be standardized. If you are going to go with the "eye for an eye" rule, apply it to everyone, even the person who is "doing his job", because he is still killing someone.
John Locke stated that all men have the natural right to life. No one should be able to take that away and get away with it; not even if you're killing a serial rapist who brutally tortured and murdered thousands.
Naughty Nurse said:And of course with the perfect systems of justice we have, no innicent people are ever wrongfully convicted of murder. :roll:
So you want to slit the wrists of people "on the spot." How lovely.
Ryuken said:No, we do not have a perfect justice system, but just because small amoiunts of people (hardly any compared to ones rightfully convicted) are killed wrongly, doesnt mean that we should immediately stop the death penalty and let murderers and rapists go to prison, where they can live life better than that of many good Americans, and even get parole to live life like they did before.
Ryuken said:Also, you seem to have a bad habit of taking things out of context. I never said that we should slit their wrists, I merely said "be glad we dont". How about you actually READ before you make accusations to make yourself look good.
Naughty Nurse said:Just ONE innocent person executed degrades your country.
Naughty Nurse said:You're misquoting yourself there!! But I take your point.
Judge said:I would have to agree with Naughty Nurse. An innocent person being executed or going to prision is very sad.
Judge said:I Crime rates were lower back in the days of death penalty. I realize there still is a death penalty, but it is not used near as often as it should be.
DD7 said:Why would you want it to be humane? The whole point is to punish and deter others.
"Humane" death penalty is expensive as hell. A bullet in the head or a 10 cent machete knife would do the trick. And afterwards the state could sell the organs and make it a productive industry, nothing should go to waste.
Ryuken said:Uh..read other topics on here, has facts aboutm Saudi Arabia having almost no murders because they swiftly kill people if they murder someone.
