It’s obvious that the death penalty is not a deterrent- just watch your local news tonight. And let’s assume that we’re discussing an eyewitness, DNA verified, confessed murderer, then I have no problem with giving them the same death penalty they gave their innocent little victim – usually little kids and women. Hell, nowadays whole families.
It,s a question of safety not vengeance for me. The majority of our population has been detrimentally altered by a small sub group of twisted, egotistical, perverts. Children can’t play outside or walk to school w/o adult. The older folks can’t sit on their front porch and yell at the kids. Women can’t safely walk off that 10 or 20lbs. their doctor ordered for blood pressure w/o being in a group or hanging on to a; Rottweiler.
Even if you won’t admit it here, you know your life and how you conduct it on a daily basis is totally altered from the freedom and fun your parents could have as children playing in the creek down in the little woods.
And we wonder why obesity is rampant, many kids are socially dysfunctional, and the NRA is doing so well. We are scared of being the next victim on the news.
It seems the majority has been trying the justice system (which is screwed) not the disgusting murderer.
Super Maxes on equatorial islands or the death penalty for people that like to torture and chop up your children. The only civilized thing I’d do is let the victim’s
Family pick which one.
