The woman was found not guilty by reason of insanity. Yet she was guilty. That case still sickens me, too. It didn't have to happen, as the microwave case didn't, either. I don't know what the appropriate punishment is in these cases. The angry, vindictive part of me wants to microwave them to death or cut their arms off in return. But I'm certain that's probably not the correct answer justice-wise.
ooooooooooooh god i remember that one....that made me just freak the hell out...i've heard of people doing some fucked up shit to kids...(which is still wrong as hell) but god...where'd she get that idea? how can peoples minds function like that?
what always got me though is i'd lay awake wondering HOW she cut em off...either way the kid suffered and bled to death...but i'm wondering if she fwacked em off quick-like...or "sawed away" at the poor things arms for awhile (cuz then the kid would've suffered more)
these people aren't getting what the deserve. i mean, yes...they're insane...but so the fuck what? they still did the crime. i've thought about doing some fucked up shit (i.e. punching a cop...i have anger and pig issues :P) so does that mean (since i do have mental issues and am on medicine) that i could punch the shit outta a cop and plead insanity? fuck no....why should other people be any different?

I have walked the streets of Amsterdam, Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal at 2 AM and I was not frightened in the least but I would NEVER walk the streets alone in NY, LA, Detroit <----OMG :eek: or how about Little Rock, Arkansas at night! or most any US city. I think I'd have to see research that proves these people were deterred by fear of capital punishment before I would beleive it there are too many civilized countries with no death penalty and extremely low murder rates. My gosh even Melbourne and Sydney are safe and they are HUGE cities why are they not free for alls for the evil people with no death sentence to worry about?
too many gangs and crackheads there...i wouldn't be caught on those streets alone...day OR night lol

Great, maybe things worked better over in China, but unless you're suggesting we "streamline" the justice system, guilty parties still have a number of rights and protections (chances to appeal, etc). It costs the taxpayers more to execute an individual than to put him away for life.
I'd also ask you how many of those people who 'disappear' are guilty of the crimes they're convicted of? Its pretty easy for a brutal government to rule by fear but maybe it's not a system we should be looking to in order to solve our problems.
I can certainly see why our current system of capital punishment is not a deterent. Not the way it is now structured. But I really wonder if those studies would have the same results if those found guilty were executed within, say, a maximum of one year after being convicted.
Maybe the death penalty is not the answer. I'm not really supporting en eye for an eye. I'm just supporting much harsher punishment for those convicted of violent crimes. Clearly the current system provides little in way of a deterent. Prisoners have the right to do this, the right to do that, etc etc. The hell with that.
Like I mentioned already, a lot of these guys just figure "oh well, if I'm caught I'll do my time and be out in a few years" . People who are considering a violent crime shouldn't think this way. Prison shouldn't be an inconvenience. It should be a living hell that nobody ever wants to experience. No books, no tv, no rights, no nothing. And if my taxes are going to pay for their food they damn sure are going to work for it. They're violent criminals who have willingly hurt another person. I don't give a shit about them.
