The Death Penalty - are you for or against it and why?

It really is that simple: They offer nothing and take everything. Is it correct that you once worked as a prison guard? If that is true, then the way you speak of those you are "correcting" in prison as human "trash". If that is true, I wonder how you would react if someone locked you up in a cage and considered you trash?  RE: The Death Penalty - are you for or against it and why?

I would like to add that the idea that you can rehabilitate a pedophile or a sociopath is as laughable as the idea that you can rehabilitate a homosexual.

That will never hold up in court...

  A man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
Along with Christopher Hitchen and Stephen Fry, this man Ian Hislop is my favourite 'celeb', his satire mag Private Eye has been outing dodgy politicians, businessmen and allsorts for 50 years, investigative journalism at its best, consistently. He's a Christian too, albeit a fucking clever one.
This is him on question time talking about capital punishment. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Es9XrKTTc_4 (November 1, 2011 at 3:36 pm)bozo Wrote: In action, the death penalty, Saudi style- Fucking disgusting!
