The Death Penalty or Not The Death Penalty

[Darran]

You’re welcome.

Prick.

Back to the OP. Each to their own but as someone says is the death of innocent people worth the reinstatement of the death penalty? For me it's a no given the state of the justice system.

For the life of me (and I know I'm guilty at times) it's absolutely fine to have a difference of opinion without resorting to names/pejoratives.

Apparently that makes me a Marxist/Commie...
Sorry Daz, couldn't resist that one

Sorry for what?
I have absolutely no idea what the fuck you’re on about my friend.

Darran love you man. But what is your obsession with the death penalty?

I’ve seen scores of threads and posts. I just don’t understand the lust for it.

That’s not to say in extreme circumstances I could be persuaded to the validity.

No need for me to answer that just read your last paragraph.

My joke was obviously lost on you (I'd said about not name calling/being argumentative and I did that with the last sentence)

38 years

No doubt they will deduct his bed and board from his compensation pay out. Awful and awful for the victims families as well.

So that’s why he stopped commentating on horse racing.

He would have been murdered by the state if we had capital punishment.

This’ll get your juices flowing.

There’s always a huge kerfuffle when the death penalty (or my trawler) is mentioned on here so who agrees with some kind of Saudi Arabian punishment?

A few weeks ago Hashem Abedi,one of the men responsible for the Manchester Arena bombing injured three prison officers when he threw hot cooking oil over them and used home made weapons to stab them

On Thursday the Southport murderer Axel Rudakubana injured a prison officer by throwing boiling water over him.

If it was down to me I would surgically remove their prominent hand.
Then if they didn’t quit the bullshit I’d surgically remove their other hand and leave them get on with it.

Abu Hamza could not be reached for comment.

Just reading the case on poor April Jones, truly horrific. Now her father has passed away after suffering from a brain disease for years, he was just 55. What a traumatic and tragic life that poor man and his beautiful daughter had. I would certainly support the death penalty for scumbags like that little girls killer.

This is a shocking story, the guy has been inside for 38 years for something he didn’t do and could have been toast if we still had the death penalty. FWIW at this time in my life I’m against the death penalty, but I think people who go to jail for murder etc should have a very long, lonely time in prison with the absolute minimum in terms of creature comfort, every day should be a bleak miserable day.
