Stop picking on Albed.
If you carry on, he'll only run off into the woods to play with the insects.

People that can repeatedly rape and murder without remorse lack the conscience required for their acts to have any "negative" mental effect whatsoever on them "for the rest of their lives". The only negative effects these people will experience is being caught. Their acts don't bother them walking the streets and they aren't going to bother them in prison. Furthermore you seem to be clueless to the fact that our prisons are full of violent rapists and murderers who received "life sentences". When you get "life" you are not segregated from the prisons "general population" like you are when you receive "death", and are rubbing elbows everyday with inmates convicted of non violent crimes like drug possesion. It is a proven fact that a majority of these extremely violent criminals "get off" sexually by "reliving" and "fantasizing" the murders and rapes of their victims, not just with masturbation but also by having sex with and even raping other inmates. Execution is final.......hardly a "let off". The real "let off" is life in prison. 3 meals a day, having a television in your cell, internet access, visits from family, having everything that you took from your victims and their families. The only thing "lifers" lose is their freedom. Quote:

Do you really believe that most murderers are tossing and turning every night unable to sleep because they are tormented by what they have done????????.....jeeze The scumbag being executed is most definately being "deterred" from further acts of violence. Life imprisonment definately doesn't deter others and allows the convicted to continue his violence in prison. Then there is always the chance that some idiot governer running for re-election can commute a life without parole sentence to life with parole so we can parole yet another covicted murderer to go out and murder again. Bottom line is there are thousands more convicted murderers in our prisons and paroled walking the streets of this country free than have been executed. I don't buy into that politically correct load of crap that the death penalty is supposed to be a deterrent. It is punishment pure and simple. I think its quite obvious that our legal system waits until it is well past warranted before they finally sentence someone to death. Way too many innocent people have died at the hands of previously convicted violent criminals. |

I'm completely ambivalent about capital punishment itself--however, I call it what it is: punishment--and clearly not a 'deterrent' except in the so-called minds of fools. (Like albed, who apparently believes anything he partially reads is 'formal proof.' lol) Quote:
Also, according to the FBI, in 2004 only 62% of all homicides were 'cleared,' and in some individual cities this number is as low as 40%. This means, according to best estimates, that over 6000 people 'got away with' at least one murder in 2004. Generally, if someone is going to premeditate committing a homicide, they are laboring under the pretense that they will get away with it or at least have a chance of doing so, and statistically they do have a fair shot at succeeding. If people are willing to gamble with these odds in spite of the fact that there already is a death penalty in most states, it becomes clear that it being a 'deterrent' is fantasy. |

Even single celled organisms are easily deterred with electric shocks or noxious chemicals, though like Ramona, they can't understand why they're altering their behaviour.
More advanced organisms are capable of weighing the rewards and penalities for their actions and deciding accordingly, though a small percentage of warped individuals will have contrary values and perhaps view a prison full of sexually deprived men or even death as an incentive instead of a punishment, most will rationally consider potentially unpleasant consequences when doing almost anything in their lives and adjust their behaviour, as even the most casual observations demonstrate.

Lol.......Nothing........You remind me of a child with his fingers in his ears so he hears "nothing".
It said enough for you to quote it. Your childish conclusion only proves that reading and comprehension are beyond your level of intelligence. 2 words........."Ignore List". This feature is perfect for idiots like you. Its just like putting your fingers in your ears. |

Your fantasy life is disturbing indeed. You and Ramona should hook up.

But, from way up here on the "high" road, your words look like ants. Which reminds me. Has anyone seen my magnifying glass?
