General opinion poll - Banana - 07-12-2004

This particular argument resulted in much conflict at my workplace a while back.

Kill 'em all, let dog sort 'em out. (Depending)

If someone takes someone elses life, I see it just to take theirs, given the situation.

For those who have answered or are temped to answer "depends on the situation" -pretend the fucker killed and chopped up your family member. Still the same answer?

I voted Depends. Even if they kill a family member it depends.

I thought you would never ask Wink

I don't think "reasonable doubt" is enough to put someoen to death. As humans we're flawed. Because someone's fingerprint is at the scene doesn't mean they did the crime (for example, a fingerprint was recently found at the scene of a robbery, turns out he works for the company that assembled their cubicles). For the death penatly to apply I think there should be no question: if the suspect confesses and pleads guilty, then go for it. If the cops find victims heads in his fridge, go for it. If he is caught red handed then go fo it.

I would rather have the man who killed a family member serve a life term in prison, than have my need for revenge kill the wrong man and find that out ten years later.

Agree with you leu. Clear cut cases = kill the bastard. Why should my money be paying to keep some psycho fed and sheltered for 25 years?

You could ask 'Leo the Cack Adict' but I believe theres a higher standard for capital punishment.

I say it depends on if it is me they found guilty or someone else

So, does this poll mean there actually is crime in Canada?

General opinion poll - leucetios - 07-12-2004

Just to play Devil's Advocate. One of the reasons to keep them around is research. We can learn a lot about the mind's of some of these people, and very little is known about some of them. Sexual Sadists for example, tend to kill themselves when they're found. We don't really understand them yet, and many of these guys are socially well accepted guys with families, and genius level IQs. So why do they torture and kill, with emphasis on the torture part?

I haven't decided how I feel about this, but it is one part of the argument for keeping them in the system.

Not a lot, but have you heard of Paul Bernardo and Karla Homolka?


ETA - Leu, sexual sadists are notoriously difficult to treat and almost impossible to cure. So I think you are right, research would be helpful, assuming they stay in jail FOREVER.

If they killed a member of my Family the Death Penalty wouldn't be needed. They'd Never make to jail. The First time they transport He or She in the Open I'm turn them off like a switch from 700 yards

I remember reading about those two. Don't remember all of the details

Let me give you an abbreviated version. They kidnapped, tortured, sodomized, raped, killed and chopped up three young girls. One of them was Karla's 15 year old sister, who Paul made Karla perform oral sex on, after she was DEAD and while she was menstrating.
