Please name something that is 100% perfect and without flaws. What is the number of innocent people that are wrongly convicted, compared to the number of people that are actuallyguilty. The actual percentages are probably very small.
To take the ultra humanitaruim approach dosen't work for the greater good in this instance. What abouit the scores of hard criminals filling up our jails and costing the public millions of dollars to support them, for what, killing, raping, buggering children, theiving, assulting, destroying public & private property etc, etc, etc......
And you say, what about the one that was innocent. What about the 1000's that arn't in comparison. Should we just build more jails and the tax payers expense. No way, they are blight to a normal society and should be puinished in the harshest manner.
Nothing can ever be perfect, but it can be a damn sight lot better than filling our jails and empting our pockets.
And as for ultra human rights activists, they are a bad as the criminals themselves. It reminds me of some religious fanatic saying 'all human life is precious'.
