Author Topic: Federal Executions Unconstitutional (Read 552 times)

Thrawn the thing is now we have many new technologies although not full proof but help greatly, greatly proving whether or not a person is guilty,especially if the penalty for such crime is death. Yes many people sentenced to death in the past have been cleared thanks to these technologies and I'm glad for them,there have been mistakes, I kid you not,but there have also been mistakes in trying other crimes but do we do away with the whole court process just because of mistakes? I don't think so.

Now we see the death penalty as unconstitutional,maybe later we'll see jail unconstitutional aswell,why have a criminal law system then? and when will we stop and find ourselves in complete anarchy.

Why does everyone look at the bad side of anarchy as if there weren't two sides to that coin.

There's another side to anarchy. You know... the one where you don't need laws or regulations or law enforcement because they aren't needed if everyone respects each other and each other's property.

Of course... this type of anarchy won't make the evening news...

Elfenwolf,

I'll promise to fix up grammatical errors when Finland's first language is english.

Then there is a problem in the juridical system, if so many are convicted without guilt.
Like we've seen from the history, many times someone is arrested and maybe convicted, just to cool down the people requiring the state to find the criminal.

I don't understand anything of your ted bundy charlie manson talking..

I made no comment concerning your grammer. In fact your English is much better than my Finnish- or French- or Spanish- or whatever. All kidding aside I love the diversity on these BBS and welcome the viewpoint of all foreigners (even Thrawn). I appreciate the effort it must take to post in a second (or third) language.

i am pretty much against execution unless there is a case of more than one victim. if you kill one person...spend your life in jail...kill two or more....

RIDE THE LIGHTNING!!!!

"Your statement "without a doubt of guilt" is also errenious"

I were referring to that paragraph

Thrawn,

With that assumption you wouldn't dare to throw anyone in the jail.
Nothing worse than rotting in prison till your death, waiting for someone to actually pay attention to your "innocence" pleas, when 99% of other inmates are doing the same.
So, being executed or rotting in the prison for tens of years.. isn't that a loss loss in any case?

Actually, I'm aganist the Death Penalty, but not because I think it's 'cruel or unusual'

The idea of executing an innocent man or woman concerns me a great deal and I'm just not sure our Court Systems are good enough to keep this from happening.

If they were, I'd have no problems with it.
