the death penalty

[tommy dickfingers]

Has anyone seen the news about the baby who was murdered by her own father at 54 days old and he sexually abused her as well,can anybody give me a good reason why this scum shouldn't be put to death.

It's not so much defending the rights of the murderer, but bestowing the 'right to kill' on the executioner. 'The State' killing it's own citizens is an uncomfortable prospect.

This person ceased to have the right to be treated an a normal human the day the baby died.

Because if we put him to death, we would be as bad as him. And we aren't.

But like Wazza alluded to yesterday: He was probably mentally ill. No sane person kills unless it is in a moment of pure rage, or self defence. If you execute murderers, what does that say about the people who execute them in supposed sanity?

Sometimes, killing is acceptable in certain situations, but a man that is already locked up, unable to harm others........what right have you, or anyone else, to kill just because he did?

Do you get the point?

I can accept a mentally ill person killing, but not a sane person. Why? Because if supposed sane people can kill so easily, what does that say about a sane society?
