Fire Away!

Why don't we be like Norway? In Norway they have an island where every law breaker goes and people chose to stay. You can came and go when ever you what. Maybe the best way to deture crime is to let the people feel apart of the community instead of imprisoning or killing them.

PS. I post here because I still have stuff to say.
 
I'm kind of for and against the death penalty. On one hand, it doesn't seem like using the excuse that one person killed another person is good enough to kill that person in turn. It seems barbaric to me, like society is just as bad as the criminal. On the other hand, it's a deterrent, and if people choose to ignore the ramifications of their actions it throws into question whether they are truly evil, or "unfixable," if you will.

Then there's the whole prison over-crowding thing and whatnot. We're running out of room stateside. That and it costs more to keep people in prison for life than to kill them.

Gah. Complex subjects are difficult to entertain when I'm trying to enjoy my weekend. -_-'
 
Just kill them, why should they live? Who pays for the prison buildings, their food, their water and all their facilities? Who pays to keep them alive? We do. Their not putting anything back into society by being in jail, their just taking from us so lets not bother keeping them alive and just kill them. They have lost their right to live by taking other peoples lives. No we are not as barbaric as they are, they set off a bomb and killed many innocents who had done nothing wrong, we are killing these few to bring justice, they are not innocent. It dosn't matter how they die or if they feel pain; preferably the quickest, easiest way to kill them and just get rid of them; There it's done.
 
Why not kill the lame ass losers who go out of their way to hurt others? I'm all for living life but don't stop others living theirs. It could only improve the quality of the human race...Although not a whole lot to reduce it :P

Capital punishment is pretty expensive. I know for a fact that in the US its much cheaper to put someone in prison for life than have them put to death.

As much as I despise people who do these kind of things, I can't say I support their execution. Executing these men does not help anyone, I remember in the news reports the men were happy they were being executed, they believed that they would be rewarded for their acts.

Capital punishment is inhumane. :(

How are they killing them o.0 giving them a nice big funeral aswell? I'm sure beating them to death with a spade then dumping them into a junkyard isn't very expensive.

How much would you excpect to be paid if you had to kill people by smashing them with a spade? It would cost a lot. As well as getting a junkyard that would take in the dead bodies :/

I'd do it for a modest pay; beating people with spades gives enough job satisfaction in itself to people with a certain mental disposition. Either way though, one executioner is cheaper than a hundred prison guards.
Also, burning bodies saves space, and money in the long run.


It may be more expensive in the US because you faff around with fancy electric chairs and other stuff nobody cares about.

Alright then, offer the executioner their own choice of weapon and don't bother with the junkyard, just dump them anywhere.

Its to do with the amount of time it takes to actually get to the execution date. I think it can take up to 10 years once all the appeals are exhausted.
 
I've thought about it, and because the people who were killed by the bomb, or the fire caused by the bomb should get vengeance by some kind of Fire Chamber.
 
Honestly, good ridance, I mean heartless, yeah, but for god sakes
THEY ARE TERRORISTS PEOPLE!

Anyways, I'm scared now because they threatened australians D:
 
Honestly I think we should bring back the gallows, in all 50 states. :D
Hang them out publicly as a deterrent to crime. They did it in the old west, and it worked fairly well if you ask me. I honestly don't oppose the death penalty. I'm not the one who decides who goes to their death.

It would be preferable to kill them ASAP as soon as it is confirmed that they were the bomber, but I know that's never going to happen.
