Death Penalty?

What do you think about the death penalty?  Should it be used?  

I think we should go back to the Medieval punishments, hanging, draw and quartering, the rack, etc...

What do you think?

You see, your nickname is "WolfMan", and you have weird lightning all around your avatar. In the medievals, you would have been #1 targer for a public burning or something of that sort.

Be like Portugal where the families of prisoners have to come feed them and stop wasting tax money feeding criminals.

That might be ok, unless you take the fact that many criminals don't have families. Will those guys starve?

Well, but if this is your way of thinking - all criminals should be given the death penalty. After all, you don't care if they live or die in prison.

I didn't say that!

I said if they didn't commit crimes they wouldn't have to worry about getting the death penalty.  But I do think the death penalty should be used more and quicker.

I know in the U.S. people on death row sit there for years and then they get lethal injection which takes about 2 seconds.  And not only that but they sterilise the lethal injection neadal.

I agree with the idea that if a person is to get the death penalty, he should get it as soon as possible. I said that you support death penalty for all criminals, since you said:

I mean, if you don't care about the criminals at all, and agree to let some of them (those without families) starve to death, then you must be also for death penalty for all serious crimes (that give you more than say 10 years in jail)

yes but some criminals should be sent to rot and fed only a crust of bread and water a day.  Just enough to stay alive.

And what crimes do you think are bad enough for that punishment? Well, murder is one for sure, but what about other crimes?

NATIONAL EXECUTION DAY

FACT: Prisons are overcrowded.

FACT: People who deserve punishment are getting reduced or even non sentences for their crimes.

FACT: About 80% of crime is done by 20% of criminals.

FACT: Death Penalty is not a deterant to crime.

Do we have a solution?

YES!

Jan 1 2003 needs to be NATIONAL EXECUTION DAY.  A day we set aside to execute everyone currently incarsarated in the USA.

This would free up much needed prison space, allowing programs of rehabilitation(fictional word) to florish, and also allowing the punishment of much deserved lesser criminals.  A large segment of the habitual criminals will be delt with.  And people will treat prison as a place to fear instead of a university of crime.

It's an idea who's time has come.

Am I the only one who thinks we need to bring back gladiator combat?  Only in a more humiliating fashion.  Make them wear tutus or something.

Well, he wouldn't be the first. Less than a month ago, three people were hung in Japan.

I like the Gladiator combat idea.  I had been thinking about it and forgot to put it here.  Thanks for bringing it up.

And I like the National Execution Day idea.  I hadn't thought of it.

How about this:
We put the top criminals in a racketball court and have kerosene come out of the fire sprinklers and have some safe place to drop a match from.  Someone like bin Laden or Saddam.
