AMAZING the lack of compassion and understanding the human race has.
Two wrongs don't make a right, and you don't fight fire with fire, especially when you don't even know what kind of fuel the flames are running off of. (i hope you know what I mean by that...Well if you don't, it means that it's easy for someone to say this and that about a certain situation when it doesn't involve them personally). If everyone's so bloodthirsty as to kill violent criminals, who undoubtedly aren't in their right mind when they do heinous crimes, why not kill everyone related to making them who they are today? Kill the parents, abusive uncles, kill the little bastards that mentally tormented the person to death in school, kill the makers of those faces of death videos...Just get it all over with if that's the case, those things and people all had a part in making that person what he/she is/was. I hear the "well it's their choice" arguement against that so often, but apparently these people who spout this crap off were never the victim of abuse or any sort of mental trauma or anything that would lead you down that psycho road, so of course they can say that..It's the easy way out of the arguement cause they just don't want to admit that no one wants to take time to help people.
Why not rehabilitate the person and help them through their already hellish life instead of just saying "oh the hell with you it's easier to just kill you and not care about how you were made to be like this, no one cares about you, fuck off and die." It's cause humans are assholes, thats why we don't bother. The lord loves a hanging, baby.
I'd love to see some of you people who talk the whole pro death sentence thing one day get tossed into a situation where you just snap and do something you wouldn't normally have done. You come home to find your wife in bed with another guy and you whack the guy in face, real hard, cause you're so enraged you can't control yourself, and it ends up killing the guy. No one is innocent, it can happen to any one of you. It happened up here where I lived last year, some guy was at a teen hockey game and he went over to the coach of the opposing team and punched him once and killed him cause he said something he didn't like or whatever. I'd like to see the tune you all sing then if something like that ever happened to you. "Oh please god no, i didn't mean it I don't know what came over me you gotta understand!" Yeah fuck off and die, no one cares.
Just goes to show you how worthless life is to people who consider themselves to be sane...Judges, juries, people out there who are pro death penalty. You're just as sick in the head as the murderers who commit the crimes. And to a very small percentage of you, one day it will all come back and somehow bite you on the ass.
