It would be politically incorrect to attempt to define it. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Let us pretend that your God is real. I will not accept a God that is a hypocrite as my saviour. Your God is a hypocrite. Thus, I will not accept your God as my saviour. Your suggesting that everyone follows a figure of authority based on the possibility of personal gains for following or personal losses for not following regardless of the actions of the figure of authority ... sounds like a bad idea.

I guess that I can be thankful that you are not sitting in the judgment seat. With that comment it is more likely that they would be sitting in the electric seat. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch -
Can you really not see the difference between those situations? What does hate have to do with it? Your decision to sentence someone to the death penalty should not be based on emotions. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

So you can all ask questions but none of you can answer them ... what would you rather do with these people? "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

So what would you rather do with these people ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_serial_killers_by_country Life without parole in solitary confinement? I think that is like putting something where you can't hear it, can't see it, and you just forget about it instead of dealing with it. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

I'm not a statistician nor do I have any relevant statistics at this time. I threw out another number in another thread (which was actually higher than I prefer). "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Sort of like the threat level, I think yesterday was "pink", or was that "violet", I don't remember anymore. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

If the error rate is higher than the acceptable error rate than it should be stopped until the system can be fixed. If the error rate is at or below the acceptable error rate than it should continue but the system should still be fixed to lower the error rate. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

This is a problem with the system not the action. Fix the system don't stop the action. This is a problem with the system not the action. Fix the system don't stop the action.

The argument was that there are situations where a person can not be rehabilitated and there serves no purpose to have them serve life without parole. These people are a cancer to the body of society and should be removed (incarcerated) and disposed (executed) of accordingly. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_serial_killers_by_country "That looks dangerous."

Hey, give me a break, given the crowd I thought the arguement might actually get across better (many posts seem to be based on, how would you feel, how would I feel, what if this, what if that, ...). -

Yes, but everyone makes mistakes, that doesn't mean people should stop doing things, it means people should strive to make less mistakes. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Butters made the mistake of trying to appeal to the charitable in the crowd (instead of keeping killers alive, give the money to the poor and needy). It's not a very convincing discussion from either viewpoint as it comes from a very left viewpoint that money belongs to the government and not to those that paid the taxes in the first place. His base argument about the potential need of a death penalty and the inevitability of a legal process that can't be perfect is a good argument though see what happens when you get off you beliefs and try to kiss up to some emotional driven group??? heck if it's cheaper, I want my taxes reduced I still believe a properly functioning judicial system could minimize resources especially in cases involving the death penalty. However, I will agree with you that the resource argument for using or not using the death penalty is not the best arguement and will not mention it again. "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch -

Would it be ok with you if they spent the rest of their life in solitary confinement? Rather that than dead. At least if evidence comes to light that clears them they can then be released. Interesting that once again you didn't answer the question. I didn't feel the need to answer your question. Of course I would not be ok with it but I'm not ok with dying due to malfunctioning gear while skydiving either but it can and does happen even if you do everything right and I understand and accept those risks.

What about the people in Africa that don't have water to drink? (J/K) Seriously though, I am not trying to determine the exact drugs or method of execution. Do you agree that there are (possible) drugs and (possible) methods of execution that would minimize or eliminate the pain and suffereing of the execution (disregarding the mental pain and suffering leading up to the execution due to the knowledge of your time and place of death)?

No. (I am not sure if the ability to buy new material goods based on ever changing fashion trends that are not necessities is considered progress for mankind. ) "That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch

Then you should oppose the death penalty!! It takes far more of your tax money to execute a man than to incarcerate him for life. Once again, that is not because of the death penalty but because of death row. We could do things to minimize the resources used while on death row but that is a different topic.
