ROFL, trying to apply Godwin's law to cartoons?
Tardtard, you are amusing at times.
Ah, my favorite pwned pea brain, Big Fizzzzzzz
Hey pea brain, please tell us again that you are not a Statist, but you believe when the State executes an innocent person it is not murder, it's just a boo-boo...
No system of justice is perfect. Secondly, executing the wrong person is an accident. Not murder. Executions are a punishment for a crime.
ROFL... Wow, tardtard... you never fail to provide.
A demand for law enforcement and an equal justice system in a society that is not afraid to punish criminals and utilize the best deterrent of all, when appropriately used... equal stateism.
thanks for proving once again why you earned the title Tardtard. A tard among tards.
I really don't care how you 'feel' or what your 'emotions' are on this issue. Besides your gross ignorance, you exhibit the sickening signs of an authoritarian followers...a passion to punish.
A national survey of police chiefs from around the country discredits the repeated assertion that the death penalty is an important law enforcement tool. While politicians have extolled the importance of capital punishment in fighting crime, they have failed to assess the actual priorities of those in law enforcement and have saddled the taxpayers with an enormously costly death penalty at the expense of more effective crime fighting strategies.
In January, 1995, Peter D. Hart Research Associates conducted a national opinion poll of randomly selected police chiefs in the United States. In that poll, the chiefs had the opportunity to express what they believe really works in fighting crime. They were asked where the death penalty fit in their priorities as leaders in the law enforcement field. What the police chiefs had to say may be surprising to many lawmakers, and to much of the public as well. The Hart Poll found that:
* Police chiefs rank the death penalty last as a way of reducing violent crime, placing it behind curbing drug abuse, more police officers on the streets, lowering the technical barriers to prosecution, longer sentences, and a better economy with more jobs.
* The death penalty was rated as the least cost-effective method for controlling crime.
* Insufficient use of the death penalty is not considered a major problem by the majority of police chiefs.
* Strengthening families and neighborhoods, punishing criminals swiftly and surely, controlling illegal drugs, and gun control are considered much more important than the death penalty.
* Although a majority of the police chiefs support the death penalty in the abstract, when given a choice between the sentence of life without parole plus restitution versus the death penalty, barely half of the chiefssupport capital punishment.
* Police chiefs do not believe that the death penalty significantly reduces the number of homicides.
* Police chiefs do not believe that murderers think about the range of possible punishments.
* Debates about the death penalty distract Congress and state legislatures from focusing on real solutions to crime.
