Personally- I'm for it.
I was reading Dark Alex's post about a guy who tortured and killed a baby.
They let him out!
The should have killed that mad dog the day after his conviction.

I don't give a f**k about how insane you are or if you had a rotton childhood.
Ya wanna kill people? Then be ready to die yourself.

Hi there!

It's a case by case scenario. The one you mentioned should have been killed, however there have been mistakes in the past where the law has accidentally killed an innocent man wrongfully convicted. My stance? I'm for it, if only it'll get me out of jury duty.

In one of those Scandinavian countries where the kookoo killed all of these young people at an island camp... I think lives still with an absurd prison sentence.  I block this sh!t out.  But, kill all these people with a gun admit it and NOT get hanged?   Thumbdown  Bullsh!t.  Hang the fncker.  I'm for it.

I support the death penalty, however, I also believe that the accused should be given every opportunity to prove his innocence, and access to all the necessary technology, DNA tests, whatever.   Sometimes there are mitigating circumstances - an abused woman finally turns on her tormentor; a beaten child grabs their abuser's gun, or something like that.

But for those who simply take human life out of sheer cruelty, or callous indifference . . . they forfeit their right to breathe IMO.

That ain't murder- that's self defense.

And folks like that don't usually end up om Death Row.

Do I feel sorry for Aileen Wurnous because of her rotton life?
Yes I do. Like her, I'm poor white trash from Michigan hillbilly country too. I know how hard it is.
Do I think she needed to die?
Yes I do.

If I ever go nuts and kill people for stupid reasons- I would hope you shot me like a rabid dog.

My brother in law, Leroy, shot a guy in the back.With the mother of my kids. And it was her idea to kill him. While he guy was drunk. In the back.
I ain't talked to LeRoy since. f**k him. He's in prison.
He f**ked my kids heads up. They loved Uncle Leroy.
I think they should killed LeRoy.
Steve was a drunk, but he wasn't a bad guy- just an old drunk. My ex-first wife's boyfreind.
They killed him (Gail and LeRoy) because they had robbed him while he was in jail for some dumb drunk s**t.  They stole a karoke machine and some other dumb bulls**t while he was in for 30 days. They wanted to store it in my shed!  Hellno!
He was gonna have them busted.
I just got done picking my kids up from her apartment before the murder happened. The State cops came to my house first looking for him. He DID come to my house after the murder. I told him to get the f**k out and run like hell. He did-about 20 miles into Bangor-then he went to a phone booth and gave himself up. In the meantime- the cops DID come to my house- had a f**king squad of State boys wake up my kids- surround my house with guns- and lay me down at gunpoint and scream at me "Where's Leroy?!?!" I told them the truth-  I dunno! He was here-I told him to get the f**k out!
Cops left.
Think I'm bulls**tting you?

I'm sorry if I went all crazy, but Leroy just sent me a letter and a photo- he looks like a skeleton. He want's me to write him. I think I should.
And tell him to go f**k himself. I grew up just as poor in the same place as him. I don't rob and kill people.

Dam. I had to post the real story of that murder. They never called me to court. LeRoy took the rap for his sister. It was planned. I knew it afterwords.
 Because LeRoy told me. Like 10 minutes after he killed him. When he ran into my house right after he dumped the gun. But they never called me to court. Because Leroy took the fall and pled guilty.

I'm in favor of the death penalty. And they need to get rid of all the bulls**t delays. It's common to see people on death row for 12, 15, 18 years or more as their appeals go through the legal system. I think everyone should have a right to appeal, but the process needs to happen faster. Maybe 5 years and that's it.

I think lives still with an absurd prison sentence.  I block this sh!t out.  But, kill all these people with a gun admit it and NOT get hanged?   Thumbdown  Bullsh!t.  Hang the fncker.  I'm for it.  

OK technically he got a 21 year sentence which is the longest sentence anyone in that country can get for any crime.  Yes,  truth.

But!

That country allows a review at the end if a sentence that can determine if the doer is a danger to society and keep him incarcerated past his sentence. This guy will die in prison,  bet on it.  

BTW,  he considered liberalism and feminism to be attacks on European culture and the white race,  and bragged about killing the next generation of liberal leaders.  While  in prison he converted to Nazism.

For this who don't know who you speak of...
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anders_Behring_Breivik

He's got a cell like a high cost college dorm room,  a video game console,  menus,  a computer sans net access,  Jesus,  people in America get sent to hell for minor offences and this guy is living like a sultan in comparison....


Back OT,  I oppose the death penalty in America.  Our court system is just to on corrupt and incompetent to be given that power.

I would like the death penalty for crimes certain crimes, however no matter how strict the burden of evidence there is always going to be the occasional miscarriage of justice. The question then for me is what is an acceptable error rate? How many innocent people can die per 100 guilty ones?

Some folks just plain need killing, but imagine yourself wrongly accused and facing the death penalty.

In any system- someone is gonna get f**ked.

On the other hand- how many people get away with murder just because they had a high-priced lawyer?

Well,  Americans can't talk about other countries prison sentences.  A 15 year old black kid in Al uh bam uh,  naturally,  was just sentenced to 65 years in prison after a white cop shot some one he was with.  The cop was acquitted, the kid was convicted of first degree murder and a slew of other charges and given back to back sentences.  Total 65 years.
