AG Opinion: No Execution for 9/11 Plotters

There are so many technicalities and loopholes in the 'life in jail' sentence. Announcing that one will be lethally punished should he/she take a life is a much stronger stance than life in jail.

I know what you're saying, and we're going to disagree and probably never change each others minds about it, I just feel that if you're going to outlaw murdering people, then don't by hypocritical in the judicial system by doing so as punishment. I think most inmates would agree that Life in jail (or multipule sentances of it) are worse than just being axed off.

Tell that to a daughter who's mother was raped, tortured and dismembered.



In this case I don't nessicarily think the death penalty is proper, but I am just certain that there is cases in which the death penalty is justified.


Your arguement is that the government should not be allowed to kill someone for commiting a crime or crimes, when it is a crime to kill someone outside of the government.

Then by this reasoning why the fuck is it ok for the government to steal earned income from working people to give it to people that do not earn it. When all along if it was a private organization doing this someone would be imprisioned.

I smell a double standard.

That argument would take this thread into an entirely different direction.. And it's not stealing. I mean if you don't like police, fire departments, public libraries, paved roads and public schooling then give up your citizenship and go live in fucking Congo,Africa

They earn it bro. They do not apply to my rant, but you are right that's OT.

I say go old school, put a sponge on there head and zap away!

I'm against the death penalty. Never is it right to take another human's life. (but if it's an accident or in self defense it isn't a crime.)

Why should the law commit a crime?

Does not compute.

If you're looking to an emotionally traumatized person for logic and sanity, you're looking in the wrong place. And when dealing with something as grave as capital punishment, arguments should be rational rather than purely emotional.

Good point, but tell us how it would be irrational to sentence to death a person who raped, plundered, and murdered a person or persons, dna/video/ eye witness evidence, and a confession to said crimes. Agreed life in prison would be far more tortureous for them, but why should we spend the money to keep a person like that alive(questionmark, another keyboard dead)
