JLumme Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Oh the poor killers family. A disabled man breaks into a home and kills the father in his sleep. Binds, rapes and murders the mother and daughters. The son manages to escape. But let's worry about the poor murderers family, because they should be able to bring their family member treats every day. Show him his favorite movies. Maybe take him for a massage. Ah the good life. Oh and let's try to save a little money while we're at it. Many cases are more straight forward than others. I'm not saying take the death penalty lightly, but in open and shut cases get rid of these people. Put them down if there's no doubt as to what happened. I have more respect for animals over some people and we treat the animals far worse in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satan's Evil Twin Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 There are many examples of 'open and shut' cases where the person executed, or sent to be executed, was not guilty. http://en.wikipedia....ecific_examples You're arguing from emotion, which is understandable, but it is also wrong.

SukhKular Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 And what's the value on the lives of people who were innocent but were wrongly executed? Who will pay for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goalie13 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 The cost of holding just one of these wastes of skin in a Canadian jail is: $113 974per year $3 419 220 for a 30 year sentance. ($1 139 740 per 10 years of incarceration) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Keeping someone in prison and releasing them 30 years later isn't exactly FAIR either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLumme Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 You'd think a lawyer would be able to recognize emotional arguments over factual ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpshooter Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Since you continue to play that broken record. And I'm unable to defend myself. Care to even things up and shed some light on your real life occupation? After all you persist on using a personal detail of my life against me, it's only fair I know one about you no? I'm sure that would be asking too much, far easier to hide behind a keyboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Back that up with a number, whats the percentage? The media always reprts on individual case, but wheres the hard numbers? With DNA testing nowdays and the CSI effect (http://www.nij.gov/j.../csi-effect.htm) its harder now days to get a conviction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Ed Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 There's no 'fair' in lawyering and war. If you're a lawyer, then I hope justice is deaf as well as blind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Ed Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Unable to defend yourself? Of course you're unable to, your own words are working against you. Even things up? Why would I volunteer personal information on a public forum for someone who refused to disclose his LSAT unless I met him for coffee in downtown? AH I just realized why you want to go for coffee! You're a barista! That would explain horrible grammar and critical thinking skills you exude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satan's Evil Twin Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I was just merely pointing out that you would never meet up in real life. Because you know what I would see. Where I'm perfectly comfortable talking where it matters. I have no interest devoting a lot of effort here such as you. No need to hide. Cheers.

KelownaCanucksFan Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 So take those costs and add on all the costs of lawyers for both sides through several levels of appeal. Look at how long it's taking to deal with Stanley Cup rioters. It takes many, many years to exhaust all the appeals in order to put someone to death. Holding someone on death row is more expensive than holding someone in the general population. So take that cost plus the cost of all the appeals, and it winds up being more expensive to execute than it does to lock them up for the rest of their lives.
