    Armed robbery
    Rape
    Heinous assault
    Murder

    People who do these things shouldn't be breathing
    OK but what the father who has kids to feed and then loses his job because of a shitty, unethical boss, and ends up killing the boss out of rage because of the burden the jobless father has.

    I can't say I would treat him the same as a guy who robs and kills some old lady.

    We should have killed this worthless piece of shit







    Because we all trust government workers to do the right thing, that's why the DMV is so grand. But yeah lets kill people because we think they did something because we have these gut feelings and we're all hardcore face shooters.

    exactly..
    your safety and your family's safety is ultimately your responsibility. there is no punishment for the guilty that can bring back the innocent.

    Any one involved in his prosecution needs to see 38 years of a prison.

    Apples and oranges to take some kid wrongfully accused of a single incident and compare it to a person with multiple violent felony convictions.

    Are you reading the same thread as me? And we've executed people in this country accused of numerous serious crimes only to be exonerated posthumous when new evidence has come to light.

    Again, supporting the death of an innocent man makes you an accomplice in his murder. Even if it's sponsored by the state. You can use all the flawed justifications you wish, but in the end it is what it is.

    As I've said earlier, I have no opinion on the person originally discussed in this thread.

    I'm simply responding to the cries that we should kill everyone bs. I guess it's my job being the so called "liberal" because I prefer not to make a critical viewpoint based on raw emotion.

    Who doesn't want to see some one accused of murder taken out back and shot? The question is how can you be sure the guilt of the person is unequivocal instead of equivocal, because the killing of and innocent person is the very reason we judge them and we would be committing the same crime to judge them wrongly. And this has happened more times than will ever be known, because the environment of our judicial system is for a prosecutor to convict no matter the guilt as their reputation and job requires them to do so.


    ETA: conceptualizing my opinion to written form isn't something I excel at.

    there's very little evidence that the death penalty actually deters criminals. If you're willing to commit a capital crime you either don't think you'll get caught, or don't care what happens to you.
    empowering citizens to defend themselves on the other hand can stop these sorts of crimes before they happen.
    it sounds like the prison in the original post needs some serious rethinking of their security.

    Mr. Smiles can you provide some documentation where a convicted death row inmate was executed then posthumously exonerated?

    Only time I remember that happening was in The Life of David Gale with Kevin Spacey but maybe I missed the story.
    Only hits count......you can not miss fast enough to catch up
