I do believe that some other countries actions or ways of dealing with crime are effective. Caning, cutting off the hand of a thief, castration of a sex crime offender, (Done voluntarily in some States already) etc. Obvisouly none of these methods is perfect, but the system we have in place now is not, and does not work!
What do you work for the justice system in some way, like at a prison or something? what do you know? :D


I think kids in this country would have a lot more respect for things if they got their asses beat publically like in singapore. It would have been nice if our response as a nation to that stupid little shit in the 90s was "Beat his ass. Give him 2 extra whacks for us. And let that be a lesson to you here in America. Shape up or we'll start beating you too."

Sarcasm my freind :)

I personally believe you are the most qualified person on the forum to render judgement on the subject.

I didnt read the thread but my views on torture are this...

If someone is found guilty of rape, cut off their balls. They won't do it again. It's not torture, it's prevention.

If some commits multiple or mass murder, fuck yeah. Make them suffer. But I think that the families of the victims (aka those most hurt by this individuals disregard for human life.) should have a hand in it. Whether it be them deciding on what type of suffereing to inflict or actually inflicting the suffering upon the murderer himself. It is fair and just.

I know if some fuck killed someone I cared about, I would be more than willing to inflict approriate punishment upon them and if the courts backed me up, then thats all the better.

Your brother is looking more and more like you all the time.






I don't know you in the slightest and I can tell that you are a self-righteous and arrogant prick by that one post. Does it make you feel better to put down someone's (clearly labeled) opinion, fucknut?

I'd like to see your reaction if someone raped, then gutted your mom or sister and left them laying in a creek. I'm pretty damn sure you'd be wanting to do a lot more than 'burn some crosses', but I guess we'll never know unless it happens...

Either way, get the fuck off your high horse because making any attempt (however weak it may be) to insult someone for having an opinion just makes you the asshole.

Good ignore me I could give a fucking shit. I'm self righteous? Whatever.

So I'm not allowed a opinon either........? I think the death penalty is barbaric and wrong. Maybe if you had've read the rest of the thread you'd see I was just stating this point again.

But yeh I could care less what you have to say about me.
