I lived for a while in a country that has very harsh punishments for hard crimes and is pretty quick to execute those guilty of capital crimes. A lot of peole like to put them down for human rights abuses, blah, blah blah. But I'll tell you this: I lived in a huge fucking city, 14 million people, filled with slums, poor people etc. Just what you'd expect to find in a city that big. But I could walk down any street in the city, at any time of the day or night, without having any concern for my personal safety. The worst thing that might happen would be getting my pocket picked (actually happened to my wife) but even that is pretty rare. Can we say that about any big city here in the U.S.?
Bottom line is that punishments for criminals here in the U.S are not hard enough. People might think twice about raping and murdering a little girl if they knew with out a doubt that they'd be executed for it, immediately after the trial. So I say execution for criminals who are convicted of capital crimes(murder, rape, any crime against children, etc) and hard labor for those convicted of any violent crime(armed robbery, serious battery, etc). And no more tv, cigarettes, nice shit sent from home, visits, etc. No more time in the weight room, in the yard, socializing with your homies, etc. You are a criminal, you lost your rights,you will serve your sentence in a 6x6 cell and never leave it. If you don't like it FUCK YOU!! You should have thought about that before you did your crime.
Meanwhile, decriminalize victimless crimes-drug use, prostitution etc. There's no sense penalizing people and sending them to jail for crimes against themselves.

yeah thats what i would waNt done....or to be put it to little cells on their own for the rest of their lives.....like that big prison thing that was out at sea.....begins with A....but yeah all alone with no outside contact so they can reflect on what they have done.Quote:

These murderers & rapists need to be killed, & because they're not innocent people are being mugged knowing they will get away with it in the english justice system

YOU KNOW SOMETHING NEEDS FIXED
is why i have no respect for THE rules,the rules they have do not protect me.
i must protect me and mine not only from criminals but from those who's job it it to protect me.
it just aint right ,and i keep a loaded gun in my house,and alot of times on me when i leave here to go anywhere becuase i know whats out there,
a real true criminal dont care about punishment,its a risk they except.
I don't see what's wrong with killing murderers. But I disagree with the capital punishment as enacted by the government, since it completely ignores mass murderers and terrorists like Bush who happen to be rich and/or in high positions of power.
Yup, when poor colored people do it it's called murder and everyone agrees they should be put to death. But when rich white men do it, it's war, it's bringing freedom, it's in our best interest. Double standard? Naaaah.... Couldn't possibly exist...Quote:

The value of robbing the bank is not worth the potentail price to pay.
Of course there are real sickos out there. Someone who thinks their dog is the reincarnation of Jesus and is telling them to kill people really don't give much thought to what will happen to them if they're caught. But these types are few and far between and, once caught, will soon learn that electricity is not their friend.
I agreeQuote:
