Title: You kill, you die. The Court should quit making this so complicated.
Post by: renocat on January 12, 2016, 05:08:05 PM
The Supreme Court ruled today that Florida's death penalty is unconstitutional.  ? .  I am too simple I guess. The state sets rules, and they should have the right to bump off killers as they so choose.

You know you're on the wrong side of a decision when its 8-1 with this court. Nice work Reno.

The death penalty is cruel and unusual punishment

it definitely isn't unusual. It's likely the most common punishment for murder worldwide throughout history. Definitely not unusual

By that logic torture isn't unusual either. We're the only developed nation that still uses the death penalty.  That makes it unusual.

Japan is "developed," no?  I don't really care for the death penalty, but I don't think "not many other countries use it" is a very good argument.

We really don't execute that many people, per capita. I mean, yeah, we execute more than Pakistan per capita, but not Yemen or Afaghanistan! :Woot:

There's a lot of really good murderers out there. What if one of them has the cure for cancer?

The justice system has made tons of errors, and death is final. Can't overturn a conviction if the guy/gal is dead.

seems like a worse punishment to me to incarcerated for the rest of your life than to have it ended early. :dunno:

I don't care about anything either way except the chance of killing an innocent person. So, I'd rather it go away but whatever if it doesn't

agree with this. maybe keep it on the books if you can prove an absolute case and have confession or something.

This is also the reason why the rich don't die in this way.  They are just to expensive to kill.

yes.  you can't let people out of death when you figure out they're innocent.  and we're not very good at telling the innocent from the guilty.
