Death Penalty Yes or No??

Some people get in car crashes and kill their best mate, happened to my mate a few year ago, he died ( was only in his early twenties ). Does that mean the driver should get a kicking every day?


Answer is no does it *, he didnt mean to kill him and he went and done time in jail for a good while for it.

I feel that is justice enough for him, aye he killed someone but it was his best mate he killed, by accident in a carcrash. He has to life with that the rest of his life, so why would getting a daily kicking be deserved on top of that?

Seriously mate just think before you post sometimes,

Edit - Forgot to say that someone might have killed a child in a carcrash or similar accident.

 

No Damo - it's kickins for everybody!

 

An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. Metaphorically speaking.

 

So we just need to make it legal and workable, at least your not whinging about human rights

 

Only child murderers

 

I think the "illegal internationally" part covers human right abuses, which is exactly what it would be. I don't mean to be dismissive of your idea, but it is so ludicrous that your insistence on persevering with it, is becoming embarrassing.

 

I edited my post above mate, but I will say again.

What if someone kills a child in an accident, be it carcrash, running a child over when the child runs on to the road, or similar things?

The person who commited the murder ( by accident ) has to live with it every single day of their life's knowing they ended someone's life, have destroyed their families life and destroyed their own life in the process?

 

Kickings!

 

In a case not so long ago a double murderer was given eight years in prison, four years for each killing. He will no doubt be out in five or six for good behavior and walking the streets again. The criminal justice system is a disgusting joke.

I am for the ultimate penalty in extreme blatant pre-meditative murder cases and also child murder. But not in cases such as manslaughter accidental-death. People always talk about human rights and that's a good thing, but what about the rights of the victims and their families i guess that they don't count for so much these days.

 

There is a MASSIVE difference between pre-metitated and accidential murder...

 

There's a school of opinion that believes the more abhorrent a crime is, the more willing we should be to lower ourselves deeper & deeper into barbarism in response to it. Death for muderers, rapists to be castrated, child rapists to be castrated then forced to eat their own genitals etc.

I'm of the opposite opinion.

Brutality on our own part, and on the part of the state, does no honour to the victims or their families, and it does no honour to ourselves.

 

What if a person murders a child, the childs father plots and kills the childs murderer...should he be kicked in everyday, surley being locked up to think of his actions would be fitting enough (or too much in some opinions).

 

As much I'd like to see some of the monsters in jail dead, there have been too many miscarriages of justice to be pro death penalty, even with all the dna evidence available. I'd prefer to see them locked up for a long time, at least then appeals and retrials are still options

 

Was going to write a post out but this one covers it

 

I dont agree they should get kickings everyday.

Thats a tough one to answer, depends on what circumstance the child was killed, if it was by accident then i dont think you could condone killing them, but if pre-meditated and the justice system was right in this country the child murderer would be in prison before someone could murder him.
If he wasnt in prison surly there would be symponty for someone in that position..

 

no but on the provision a lif sentence was more than a few years . a suitable punishment should be served .

 

I find it pretty shocking 1/3 of the people who have voted so far are in favour of the death penalty, at a supposedly left-leaning, liberal club

 

I am now curious about how those voted yes would want the person to be executed.

 

Me too.

 

If it could be proven to be a huge deterrant i would
consider it.

i mean before they commit the act.
