Amen about that waiting in jail for 10+ years business before having the death penalty carried out. I was thinking the same when I hit your statement there.
Wow. That bit about Michigan is news to me. I agree. Where the heck are they going to GO? Especially when they suffer from overcrowding like most. Amazing. [Show/Hide Quoted Message] (Quoting Message by ~ MG_Metalgoddess~ from Friday, June 05, 2009 8:31:09 PM)

Iam in Canada,, but when I lived in the USA,, it was worse, there..
The man that did the beheading had schizophrenia, and he was married and had children of his own, and decided to quit taking his medication. Where was his family/friends to help him,,, We had a family member with the disease also... and you can def tell when they are off there meds.. But he never wanted to kill anyone while off his meds..
SO I believe the defense for this man, won him case,, which in my eyes is a crock of shit.. How many schizophrenic people really Kill eat, and be-head other people when they go off there meds.. ???????
Oh and this was not his first violent offense either... He had another violent outburst while off the meds 2 years ago...
He is not fit for society, esp when He doesnt care enough about himself to take medication he needs, he a danger to the public.
Even though we dont have the death penalty here in Canada,, Iam a strong believer in it, and I also believe, Once a case has been proven beyond a reasonable dout dna, ect.. If the person is found guilty , By 6am the next morn, they should be put to death,, None of this sitting around lifting weights, and shooting pool with your buds for next 20 years,
or set a date and get them in line and fire up the chair... ...
Sorry just my thought,, I hope this doesnot offend anyone,, !

Oh I just heard the state of Michigan is closing 8-12 prisons,,,, ???? where do you think those people are going to go???? they are over crowded allready.... Maybe your next door Neighbor????

It's a pretty pissy subject, because we know that Justice, in Portugal, Sri Lank, China or the USA, hasn't been feeling well for a while. Be it overcrowded prisons, corrupt judicial systems or the opposite as in complete repression from authoritarian states, you name it. It makes me angry to start thinking about all the cases that I hear here in Portugal alone.
However, we mustn't lose focus here. Laws will be laws, and we (well, you americans) live in a country and states where they will probably be enforced. And saying that 40 years IS 40 years is already a big step on the road to keeping those f*ck*rs where they belong.

I guess the part that bothers me the most, about murder/death penalty,, Is by reason of Insanity.,...that part I hate
I watched a man confess, confess to doing a murder once, was one of the most chilling things I have ever had to see,,
I ran the video equip for the police dept in Montana, while they were interviewing him..
His excuse He was high on crack. To me thats another one, I dont care is you feel insane or do drugs.. Murder is murder in my book..
And 40 years does not mean 20 will be served... It means Prob 5-8 will be served,, Prison overcrowding is a huge problem, you would crap your pants if the stat's were released on the real information...
I live about 25 minutes from Selkirk Manitoba, were the the now Infamous Vince Lee lives..
Anyone that has not heard of him???? He stabbed be-headed and then ATE, part of Timothy Mcleans body on a grey hound bus, on July 30th, last summer.. He will serve 1 year,, why???????? you ask... because the poor baby forgot to take his Psyco Meds, and went nutz on the bus, and this kid happend to be sitting by him...
I wish the swat team would have shot him right between the eyes when he held up the head of this young man, for all onlong the highway to see, through the bus window...
as you can see this is a topic that pisses me off, |
