I REALLY like your 'direct approach' to deterring crime!Life in prison is not the deterrent or punishment it use to be. If a person is convicted of murder they get one appeal if that fails they should immediately be taken to the steps of city hall doused in gasoline and set on fire. The murder rate will drop dramatically.
I REALLY like the first of your two posted quotes!!!As usual Moonie, you have an amazing grasp of the obvious.
Did you know that water is wet?
I’m not good with it, I am not opposed to the death penalty except in our current political state it is a bad idea. I never said anything about financial considerations, so I am not understanding that. You seem to post random thoughts which are irrelevant to a conversation.So someone who beats someone with a bat, leaves them permanently disabled and unable to provide for themselves or their family.. you're good with paying for 3 hots and a cot for this guy for 50 plus years?
I don't think financial considerations should be part of the mathematics.
What about someone who swindles a senior citizen of most of their money?
I was making a point that I don't think finances should be considered. You responded to it. It was anything but a random thought.I’m not good with it, I am not opposed to the death penalty except in our current political state it is a bad idea.

I never mentioned finances as having any bearing at all on the decision to execute or not. You babble about some cold blooded killer and some silly scenario then about old people getting scam. It was three random and poorly written thoughts so play stupid, but it was a random bunch of crap.I was making a point that I don't think finances should be considered. You responded to it.

Your concession noted and accepted.whatever.
It's a very nuanced and complex discussion. This guy certainly crossed the line. What about the spouse walking in on their partner and in a mental breakdown, does the unthinkable. Should they get the DP? Maybe, maybe not. But this guy, this guy is evil. No remorse, nothing. I think reasonable adults can see the difference between this guy and the jilted lover.Where do you draw the line on who should be put to death and not if your concerns are financial?

Agreed.It's a very nuanced and complex discussion.
Well...why is there some ambiguity? I am assuming you're talking about a partner having relations with someone else above. The partner nor the person they are cheating with have committed a crime. I get that it would be a crime of passion. However the victim is just as dead as if it were not a crime of passion.This guy certainly crossed the line.

Huge difference in the actors. Not the action. The system is supposed to punish the action irregardless of the actor in my view.But this guy, this guy is evil. No remorse, nothing. I think reasonable adults can see the difference between this guy and the jilted lover.
Agree.Can we all agree that this guy should have never been released?
I don't think that should be considered. Some crimes should not be eligible for parole. Prosecutors shouldn't be able to offer parole for some crimes. Murder==life in prison; no parole. I don't care if they found Jesus, Allah, and Jim Jones. The guy who was on parole shouldn't have been on parole to start with.Would like to know what his prison record was like too.
Agreed.

Agree to disagree.Our current legal system allows for different degrees of homicides. The court considers the assailant's methods, motives, previous history, and the entire context when sentencing. Yes, the outcome is the same, a murder has occurred. But I do believe context is important, and why our current judicial system allows for logical reasoning when sentencing.
If wife walks in on her husband and his mistress and take a lamp and cracks him over the back of the head and kills him, is that the same as the parolee that cold blooded executed three people in Chicago. It's murder, yes, but is it the same? Our court system historically and currently says no.
Now if the same wife knew about the affair, stalked the husband and woman, planned out her actions, days or weeks before, then executed them both, that is different and should be treated differently.
Agreed
