Aurora Shooting

[420seriouscat69]

I think if you murder someone, that they should be killed the same way as they murdered. Eye-for-an-eye!

['taterblast]

Remind me again what the cost difference is between the injection and putting up a criminal for life?

IIRC, the injection is way more expensive than you'd think.

looks like colorado uses Sodium Thiopental

The five grams of sodium thiopental apparently cost the state some $351.10

there are tons and tons of costs other than the drug itself, but i was curious about the drug.

Exactly! And if somebody rapes you, you should be able to rape them back!

[michigancat]

Okay.  So like full steam ahead with killing him, but let's not pretend we're occupying the high moral ground.

LOL, you're trying so hard. It's cute.

Right, the drug itself isn't as expensive as the stuff that accompany it. 350 bones, eh? I bet you get high as crap.

It'll take 10 years to kill him probably.  All the while attorneys are doing stuff.  Gets expensive.

My whole thought on the death penalty is that if there is any chance that someone could be killed who is innocent it is not an ok avenue to go down.  I think we can all agree that an innocent person being killed is certainly a possibility and therefore I don't think the death penalty should be used.

Russia had it right with Siberia.

Some situations, no that is not a possibility though. There is such a thing as 100% stone cold lock- guilty

instead of siberia, we could send all of the bad guys to lawrentucky  

[pissclams]

lol

[CNS]

Oh man, Clams, that would really show them. 

I mean, waking up every day that far from an airport or decent football stadium.  Would be killer deterrent. 

[pissclams]

i was thinking about the bhopal chemical plant outside of lawrentucky, we could make them live next to it.

So you want to trust the same government that has trouble building bridges that resist the force of gravity or figuring out how to move around pieces of paper without losing boatloads of money to figure out which ones are 100% stone cold locks?

If the only cause to take a person's life, is that they murdered an innocent, and we the people execute a single, just one, innocent person, then we are all hypocrites.

no, denied, murdering one innocent is nowhere close to murdering a ton of people in a movie theater

No argument there, but the point is you're still, by having a death penalty, assuming the risk that you will be directly responsible for executing an innocent person.

[Rage Against the McKee]

Like I don't disagree that he should die, but he's crazy, right?  And we (as a country) don't believe in capital punishment for the insane, right?  But we do when it's convenient, right?

I don't think we should every use capital punishment.

I agree. Just jail them for life. Killing is wrong.

[CNS]

I am fine with that, but don't take away their belts or shoe laces or anything.

I mean, that's bullshit.

[Rage Against the McKee]

I don't even care if the person murdered like 1000 people on camera, admitted to the crime, and laughed about it in court. I don't want him getting the death penalty. Life is enough.

What if he raped you and killed everybody you cared about?

Life

NK, there is some combo that someone somewhere is in prison for that if committed against you and yours, you would want that person killed.

Promise.

This is like the gay marriage thing.  I don't think ppl personalize it enough to understand it. 

It isn't a question of person A killing person B.  It's an issue of your neighbor killing your daughter and what he deserves for such an act.

eff off, you don't know how he would react in that situation. I wouldn't want more people murdered just because they murdered someone I cared about. What the eff does that accomplish?

It's human nature.

[OK_Cat]

i don't think that the death penalty should ever be used.
