Why do people think convicts deserve to have any rights? Again the same arguement ALWAYS exists. That is until it happens to their families. What a bunch ofuckingjokes!!

what if the evidence against you was skewed? what if the jury didn't understand all that was presented? what if the police department was anxious to 'get their man', and you're him?
right now, the state of texas is going to pay out MILLIONS of dollars to a man who was wrongly executed for a crime he never committed, because AFTER THE FACT, the DNA proved it wasn't him, but someone else....
if that man is you, or your brother, or your dad???? you okay with that?

<quoted text> You know....you're right. There seems to be some closer scrutiny of possible terrorism suspects which should make you just a wee bit nervous, so, what do I care? If you want an easy execution, so be it. Rot in hell, Fascist.

And I provided earlier evidence to suggest that states with no death penalty have significantly lower murder rates, which means that there is a possibility that somebody's Mom, sister, or daughter was the victim of a screw-up legal system.

i am sorry you are grieving....but i don't think you can really equate the euthanization of a beloved pet with the state murdering of a human being....it's a big leap for me...
i get that you think that because the induced death of your dog was peaceful and painless that it will be the same for humans...
not necessarily...
dogs and humans have very different metabolism and anatomy....how a drug works on a person may work entirely differently on an animal, and vice versa....
this is why you don't let your dog into your prescriptive drugs....
aspirin for instance, will shut their kidneys down...for you, it thins your blood and relieves your aches and pains...
so you see, while i was being a smart ass, i was also trying to get you to understand that you cannot compare humans to animals....while we are connected, we are not the same...
and any dog will tell you that.

Your conclusion seems a bit odd to me, but you have a really funny picture.
Murder rates depend on a lot of different factors and if the murder rates are higher in a state (or a country) with the DP it doesn't really prove that the DP is not working or that the DP causes higher murder rates. Not that I think that the DP is working.

Jim Trebowski wrote:

My post wasn't very clear, I suppose, but what I meant is that the link I provided earlier in this thread showed that there was as much as a 40% or more difference of murder rates in states that have the DP as opposed to those that don't.

Yes, I'm sure there are many factors involved, but unless anyone can provide numbers to support that the DP is an effective deterrent and not just a "feel good" measure for victims families, I have to side with no state-sponsored killing.

<quoted text>Which is a good argument against the death penalty. It also costs taxpayers more, and there's no evidence that it deters crime. Realistically, I can't say for sure that if it were my daughter that he raped and killed, that I wouldn't want the guy to be executed, but from an objective point of view, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of deterrence. In fact, states that do have the death penalty have higher murder rates. http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/deterrence-st...
