_m8 Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 In the spirit set by the "one bullet" thread I thought I'd get your views on this issue. Did you know that some American states still have electrocution and the gas chamber as a means of executing people? Personally I'm dead against it.

wazzap24 Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I don't know about the methods but, I am for the death penalty in cirumstances where the verdict is beyond doubt. murderers and sexual criminals deserve nothing less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmygreaves Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 The verdict was in doubt, they were released. I think DNA evidence would go some way to proving guilt beyond doubt nowadays, if the circumstances warranted it. Then the deadly Chinese Burn would dish out justice.... AAAAABWWWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.

wazzap24 Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I am for the death penalty in cirumstances where the verdict is beyond doubt. Like the Guildford Four and Birmingham Six? I can see your point. It is a very difficult subject and not one that can be easily debated on a mb. For my part I would support the re-introduction of the death penalty however, there would need to be strict guidelines in place. I would only support it in cases where the evidence was 100% accurate and backed up by solid forensics etc. Not circumstantial evidence or witness testimony. It's just my opinion, if accuracy could not be guaranteed then I would not support it . I just can't justify in my own mind that convicted Paedophiles and child killers should be allowed to live.

jimmygreaves Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I just can't justify in my own mind that convicted Paedophiles and child killers should be allowed to live. But they're mentally ill. So not neccesarily responsible for their actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazzap24 Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 True again it is a grey area. But again if they have wilfully molested/killed a child and they are sentanced to life imprisonment then what purpose does it serve for them to be locked away and not killed?.

Shillzz Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Technically you can still get the death penalty in this country for starting a fire in a naval dockyard. Since the film Green Mile I have always had an interest in the electric chair. (Interest does not extend to a concerning length) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
