<p>Perrrrfect.<br>Sorry Officer Rob, your stop at the store is old news now. We got a real burner here.<br>J-fans the flames of the smoldering embers. Just when I thought we would have to ask Rob about more details of his baby oil, Busch beer, and Cheetos run,walla! Thumbs up J!<img height="54" src="http://mmb.maverick.to/images/smilies/You_Rock_Emoticon.gif" width="76" alt="image"></p><p>A-never let's us down. Comes complete with more fictional TV/movie plotlines, as if they're actually usable material for such a debate. Bonus forbringin back the snuff porn angle, for those who might have missed it the first time around.<img height="20" src="http://www.ezboard.com/image/posticons/pi_thumbsup.gif" width="20" alt="image"></p><p>G-forever the romantic. My guess, he needs the work. As long as we NEVER get tough on crime, we're goin to need lots of prisons, can you say CAching! Somebody has got to build them prisons! Job security. Bonus point for Greg, for using the ole standby, it's cheaper to keep em angle! Which is reallythe main problem with this entire debate! We've now come full circle, took the long way around, and just wait! We've still got the Kitty waitin ondeck. <img height="35" src="http://www.dodgetalk.com/forums/images/smilies/banana.gif" width="33" alt="image"></p><p>Grab some more popcorn, this thread as at least another 15 in ere!<img height="35" src="http://sshare1.familylobby.com/icons/icon_popcorn.gif" width="35" alt="image"><br></p>

Andy- You hit the nail on the head! We should be allowed to watch watever the hell we want to as long as its not being produced off the harming of otheres (iesnuff films, kiddy porn) Other than that you are absolutely right there should be no censorship. You completely missed the point of what i was saying. Lemmebreak it down for you. What i was saying was why the hell do folks get all hell bent on patting criminals on the ass and calling those that want them to paythe penalty for their actions Barbarians when at the same time they have no problems with the fact everything else about the world is being saturated withcrap. Forgive me if im making an assumption here. But i take it youd go right along with a film being distributed about how to blow up elementary schools thatgives a step by step tutorial of how to plant the explosives so on and so fourth. I mean you cant ban it can you? Ooooh no that would be censorship and godforbid some wackos that want to get their message out be silenced by "big brother". Yet its barbaric to execute a criminal that murdered a woman andher unborn child? Do you get it now? Is it sinking in? It was a comparison of how some of you guys have some sort of whacked out double standards when it comesto what is right and wrong. Not a statement that im condoning censorship.<br><br><blockquote> Doesn't really matter, because there's no such thing as either "revenge" or "justice". They're both a mirage - something we're always chasing after, but have no hope of achieving. <br></blockquote><br>Greg- Wow no such thing as justice? Im speechless. Congratulations you just slapped every man and woman in the face who ever wore a badge or gave their lifefor this "mirage" as you so call it. Tell ya what partna, lets just stop arresting criminals altogether then. Hows that? I mean if justice is anallusion then so is right and wrong. Whats the need? Lets just quit enforcing laws. Just dont complain when they barge in your home and beat you upside thehead and steal your property. No Greg i think youd be singing a whole different tune if you had your rights violated by a criminal. Or even more so if someonemurdered or raped someone close to you. Yeah everyone always gets all damn high and mighty when their life is peachy and they dont have to confront the horrorsof society. Youd be singin a different tune if you were surrounded by scum and got to see the horrible things people do first hand.<br><br><blockquote> I know you'll cry "THAT'S WRONG - IT SHOULDN'T BE THAT WAY!!"</blockquote>Oh and thats a bold statement since youve done the bulk of the crying about this topic. But thanks for taking something un related to mepersonally and making it personal. I think youre the only one here throwing around any sort of ego my friend. But i'll be getting "personal" inthis reply as well so lets just consider us even and throw the whole "ego" argument out the window.<br><br><blockquote> And tell me, whom will it be that decide which are the scum that need purging? You?</blockquote><br>Again way to make something about me personally. But since you asked. No! Not me buddy. How about the millions of others that are sick of this crap as well? Dothey pass as a majority that has something to say in your book? I know youd like to make me out to be some sort of freedom hating nut that only cares aboutwhat i think is right thats why im sure you make this comment in reference to me. But no i hate to ruin it for you but theres a damn lot of people that wantthe same things that are tired of it as well. So hows that for an answer?<br><br><br><br><blockquote> Once you have a "sense" that you achieved either one, was it <em>really</em> satisfying? Will it improve your personal life if we kill that "scum"? <br></blockquote><br>Again this is exactly what the hell is wrong with the world. Folks like you only care if it "improves your personal life" You apparently care less ifit helps the world as a whole. Yeah everyone wants to believe that only crap in their peachy little lives matters. "Buy the SUV that gets 10mpg because itmakes me feel better. I dont care what it does to the environment." or "Dont kill murderers or rapists because it upsets me and doesnt help mepersonally." Way to put yourself above the greater good because i know it matters more that something "improves your personal life". Ya knowwhat? If you want to "improve your personal life" then go to Sharper Image but leave your need to only benefit yourself out of cleaning up the world.Theres no room for personal want when it comes to making things better for the rest of society. Everyone must sacrifice some of their feelings or wants at somepoint if they wish to help others. Apparently you arent ready to do that.<br><br><br><br><br>

Can someone tell me how to make nice purdy paragraphs like all you guys? I haven't figured this thing out? Then when I learn how to do that, I can be moreefficient communicating from out here on Pluto. Justin, I never referred to you personally as a barbarian, nor anyone else. I said the DP is a barbaric act andspeaks to the barbarism within us. Jails should only be for the violent crimes, and maybe too that of large white collar crimes not unlike the Enron thingwhere people lost absolutely everything. Someone caught smoking crack for the 5th time certainly doesn't need to be put in jail for 15 years while rapistsor murderers walk. Seems all the Police Chiefs in Canada want all hand-guns banned and all long guns registered, and it's the right wing element herethat's adamant on stopping that. The gun fans in this country doesn't want the government to know how many rifles they own, whether it be 1, 5, or200. At least when the cops respond to a residence, they'll know if there are guns of any sort within, there-by reducing their chance of being surprised.Or should the Police assume that any and every house they go to is dangerous, whether it be Joe Slum on the inner east side, or Ritchie Ritches house on anwealthy estate 20 miles from town. Why do people have no problem registering their cars, dogs, cats, bicycles, etc.....but not their guns? I've oftentossed around the name of a certain group of folks in Germany in WWII, that's.........Einsats Groupen,...................yes, it's all them rightieswho are so damn adamant about the guns here in Canada. Take 'em all away with the exception of farmers who are approved by a local body of citizens,hunters can get their guns from a police lock up when whatever's in season. Shooting enthusiasts, you're guns are to be kept in lock-up at the localgun club under the close scrutiny of a paid for attendant Police Officer, and so on. Anyone caught using any weapon for any reason, you're in jail. Ourstreets in Canada are FLOODED with guns from the US both legally obtainable due to lax laws in some states then smuggled en masse , and stolen from the housesof legal gun owners then smuggled here. Maybe we should go into the US after the guns and the people who purvey them, as the US goes into Colombia and pursuesthe source of their problems with cocaine. Don't make us come down there! <img height="15" src="http://redlinesonlinemessageboard.yuku.com/domain/bypass/images/pacman.gif" width="15" alt="image"><p><br></p>

Andy i never said you called me a Barbarian personally. I just questioned the logic that its somehow alright to condone the act of flooding the world withgarbage ideals but its a Barbaric to condone the death penalty. That was all.<br><br>As for your response tell me what in the world does gun control, laws in Canda, or cocaine have to do with the death penalty for murderers, rapists, or childmolesters? Dude i had this thing back on topic and now its yet once again veering off course.<br><br>Were talking about <span style="font-weight: bold;">THE DEATH PENALTY IN THE UNITED STATES AND HOW IT SHOULD BE USED REGARDING MURDERERS RAPISTS AND CHILDMOLESTERS.</span><br>

Ya know what? Lets get past our feelings and "improving our personal lives" issue and just get to the meat and bones of this debate.<br><br>Greg says......<br><br>"it costs much more to put someone to death than imprison them for the rest of their lives."<br><br>Greg where does this "fact" come from? Show me where it says the cost of having a full blown trial and sentencing someone to death is more expensivethen having a full blown trial and sentencing someone to 58 years in prison where we not only pay all the money for the trial but also for their livingexpenses once they have been sentenced. Not to mention other expenses for helping them back into society like work release programs, and expenses incurred byhaving to keep an eye on them. Show me. And in the event that it is more youll at least be right about something for a change. Good for you.<br><br>Secondly show me how even if it does cost more to execute why it is more beneficial to society having these people (ie murderers, rapists, child molestors)Still living? What good comes of it that benefits the families of the victims and society? Im not talking about them saying "they are sorry" Thatsbs. Im sure they are sorry! Sorry that they screwed up their own lives.<br><br>So go on and show me where this all makes the world "better". No cheap shots! No straying to other issues about feel good crap. Just hard facts toshow what makes the death penalty so bad.<br>

You guys are the leaders of the free and civilized world. We are part of that world and subject to the influences eminating from there-in. If we are subject,then we have a say, and a duty to speak up. Seems that more and more states are opting out of the DP..............I see no-one as of yet wanted to run with mypost about the potential criminal born every minute. Robs question has been answered, if the discussion continues, then it should include all aspects of the DPincluding the social and cultural conditions that allows for it's necessity. <img height="15" src="http://redlinesonlinemessageboard.yuku.com/domain/bypass/images/pacman.gif" width="15" alt="image"><p><br></p>
