ALL HAIL CAPITALISM

[Cinjin]

Sigh, Cin, everyone doesn't feel this way. You do, and that's okay, it takes a whole village. For every asshat that would stay the axe there's bound to be somebody who would say "meh, fuck it, we don't need that one". Keeps us balanced..lol.

Sigh ... making thinly veiled insults about my intelligence Rhythm doesn't make my opinion any less valid than others.
I never said anything about everyone feeling the same way. I'm reasonably sure that this age-old debate has been divided down the middle since mankind invented executions. This is one of the few debates that has always been a hot-button for me and since many of you regularly express your ridiculous opinions openly on these forums, I feel I should have the same privilege.

If you feel it is your moral duty to protect thousands of convicted murderers, rapists, and child molesters in an effort to safeguard a tiny handful of other convicted criminals who may or may not be guilty than that is your prerogative.
But know that it is hypocritical on two painfully obvious levels.
1. You (using "you" in a general sense) have a problem with executing a man who MIGHT be innocent, but yet you have no problem with ruining his life by letting him agonize in prison for an entire lifetime. Where's your bleeding heart then? You know where it is? It's safely in your home because you don't want to admit what the rest of us already know. That man might be guilty as shit and you simply cannot risk letting him out to endanger your family.

2. Time after time when put to task, you will admit that if it was your mother or child who was violently murdered you'd be more than willing to take that man's life from him because it is justified and the right choice to safeguard the rest of the civilized world.


Do I want innocent men to die? Of course not, I don't even want all criminals to die, but the bleeding heart will change his tune real fuckin quick when it's his loved one who has to forfeit his or her life because a violent predator was released after doing his time. Meanwhile, your kindness to these few "innocent" men allows them to suffer in prison for decades if not a lifetime.

I see no redeeming notion to your side of the argument. It's political correctness meets self-righteous hypocrisy ... in my ever-so-humble opinion.
