• To get back to the main subject, the death penalty is bad.

    Do you have any idea what goes on in a prison, yourbuttocks? Despite what you see in the movies sometimes, they do have it relatively easy in prison, from what I’ve seen. I’ve visited the Kingston Penitentiary in Canada (NOT as an inmate, I might add). My dad and I used to live with a woman who was a security guard there. Most of the prisoners get their own cells, and they get an ALLOWANCE. They have tv’s in their cells, radios, and other luxuries. I wouldn’t be so harsh as to call someone a ‘fool’ before doing my own research to prove them wrong, yourbuttocks.


  • lack of “confidence”,

    thats a part of capitalist; its very emotional. Sometime a compagny is running fine, very fine, but oops, their actions are loosing valor, why ? Because X said something bad for the compagnie and peaple get afraid…


  • Gotten

    “thats a part of capitalist; its very emotional.”

    Very true indeed.

    “Do you have any idea what goes on in a prison, yourbuttocks? Despite what you see in the movies sometimes, they do have it relatively easy in prison”

    Another statement I have to agree with. And if you’re rich and you get convicted for a felony and sent to jail, multiply Chri’s above post by 10. Another problem with capitalism and our jail system – money talks, perhaps too much.


  • I don’t know about some fancy dance hotel in Canada, but in the U.S. it is different. Listening to personal stories on NPR of men being beaten, and raped on a regular basis. One guy was stabbed dozens of time with an ice pick. Sounds luxorious to me (sarcastic)


  • If you are poor than the system might treat you like karp. But if you’re free, then prison stay is just a minor nuisance.


  • Quote: How can peaple be pro-life, against Abortion, but for death penalty ?

    The one’s on death row had their chance…and they blew it, the unborn baby hasn’t.


  • Still, its not “pro-life”


  • I do believe that the majority of pro-lifers are against the death penalty.


  • I joke with ym friends that i am in the “pro killing party”, because i am pro the war on terror (we should of picked a better name, the name sounds like it is good versus evil), pro abortion (pro choice), pro euthanasia, and pro death pelenty.


  • Ha, sounds a bit like me :smile:


  • (we should of picked a better name, the name sounds like it is good versus evil)

    i totally agree

    pro abortion (pro choice)

    I am pro choice, but against abortion (exept in some, very rare case)

    pro euthanasia, and pro death pelenty.

    Not a little useless ?


  • Well no everything is black and white. Like I’m “pro-life” in abortion but not always (such as cases of rape, life endangerment of the mother, or incest). Same with the death penalty. It really depends on varying degrees.


  • The intrinsic problem with the Death Penalty is that you can’t pardon a corpse.
