If there was no doubt of the crime, and the rules were widely advertised before any crimes were committed, I'd be more inclined to let the people that do that sort of thing live out the rest of their lives incarcerated in terrible conditions. This would give them enough time to reflect on their actions - death would be a coward's way out. However, this would be a breach of their human rights (not that they necessarily deserve any after committing such a crime), and it would cost the tax payer to keep them.

 

Totally agree. I don't believe state killing is the way a modern, organised and civillised society should behave. Its barbaric and it's unfair to ask people to carry out the sentence. Full life imprisonment until death certainly stops the offender re-offending and gives them plenty of time to reflect. Should they choose to take their own life in that time is their own matter.

Deterrants never really work, there were plenty of murders in the UK when we had the death penalty. If someone is worked up enough to kill, then they won't be stopped by the threat of death. A lot of serial killer types believe themselves to be above the law anyway, like Shipman or Nilson.

Put both lads in a room with 1 knife on the table and tell them the one who kills the other one gets set free. The one that wins chuck in a cell for the rest of his life with a bloke called Bobo who wears a nappy and loves boys bums.

It's time we let the Devil out to play with scum like this and forget about what would God do. God will forgive you for your sins the Devil will take your sole for your sins and we worship God strange people us humans are.

LOL that sounds like an arguement my mate put across about a Battle Royale type affair on the Isle of Wight broadcast over an illegal website. He was convinced it would make him millions.

 

Bless. :rolleyes:

The USA ;)

 

Perhaps killing prisoners would free space up to you know- kill some more. It may be cheaper too than long term incarceration.

I do think thou that fear is the only way to control people like this. Why do you think religion came about to control people by fear of not going to heaven.

Well fear of the Gods anyway

 

Um not any more-

 

I give you...The USA :D

What about the USA? a lot of people aren't scared of dying but could be scared of being tortured or put in 1m X 1m room for 23hrs a day. Death is quick punishment should be long.

Personally I've never been there. I'm told it's a beautiful country.

You should go. It's a lovely safe place with no murders and a near zero crime rate, due to them having the death penalty and that.

Unlike over here where prisoners play pool and watch Sky TV all day while waiting for their next steak dinner to arrive. Apparently.

Was that sarcasm?

 

I'd never expect that kind of thing from you, Jake!
