[QUOTE=Warhol;22698518]ie: you[/QUOTE] ie: every person fucking ever you can't even argue this, it's something us humans have.
[QUOTE=Gummylamb;22698501]The mentally retarded person, this still puts worth on human life which proves my point anyway. [editline]10:31PM[/editline] Merit could easily be a synonym for worth I think[/QUOTE] Aw man you should of quoted after the edit the mentally retarded thing makes me look like a asshole. But see, now I can't tell if you're being pragmatic or moral. Pragmatism I can get behind.
[QUOTE=Lachz0r;22698506]We could also kill the innocent person to guarentee he never kills anyone too. Either all lives have value or none do.[/QUOTE] Which goes back to my previous ideas that we should commit a mass genocide on all of the human race. Every. Single. One. [url]http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=955090[/url] See that guy? ^ He's been sentenced for over four hundred years, but that's alright with you because it wasn't an execution.
[QUOTE=Gummylamb;22698521]Technically that would only make sense if the innocent person was like...insane[/QUOTE] It wouldn't make sense because if the innocent person was insane he could be treated. Just like if the murderer was insane he could be treated too. Alot of insane murderers were never diagnosed and treated before they committed their crimes, so the innocent person could just as easily be a undiagnosed schizo! Why gamble? Just kill him.
If it turns out I have some terrible illness and will be a miserable husk for a few years then just wither away, I'm going to die by firing squad. Cigar in mouth, blind folded, and drunk. It's what my ancestors would have wanted.
That guy ^ is a true asshole, certainly not worth the same as you me or anyone in this thread [editline]10:35PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Lachz0r;22698548]It wouldn't make sense because if the innocent person was insane he could be treated.

He needs medical help not some bullshit 400 year sentence. I don't believe in retribution I believe in rehabilitation. If life sentences exist they may as well just kill them because all they're saying is that the convict can never be rehabilitated.
[QUOTE=Gummylamb;22698550]That guy ^ is a true asshole, certainly not worth the same as you me or anyone in this thread[/QUOTE] No dude, he's just as good as all of us, all we have to do is teach him it's bad to murder (he's a fully grown adult NO SHIT HE ALREADY KNOWS) and then para-drop him into society again, then nobody else has to die!

Why bother with killing the murderer? It wont help anyone or anything. Maybe the victims family will have a tiny sense of closure (most admit that the execution doesn't help them at all). So why not fix the murderer to make a better future?

I mean sure, your logic makes sense, but it breaks down when you are given the choice between an innocent person and a murderer.
[QUOTE=ThatHippyMan;22698586]Wait, me? Shit, and I was trying to stay out of this particular death penalty debate...[/QUOTE] Yeah you, you worthless asshole. You rapist. You killer, I hope you go to jail for a REALLY IMPOSSIBLY TO SURVIVE amount of time, you deserve a slow death in a shitty cell, because that's a LOT more humane.

I'm so moral I can just label them evil, lock em up and throw away the key! Or maybe I'll just kill them.

Well why let the murderer live and kill the innocent? I mean sure, your logic makes sense, but it breaks down when you are given the choice between an innocent person and a murderer.[/QUOTE] Because if he's insane it's not his fault he did such a terrible thing. And think of it this way, you rehabilitate/treat the murderer you have 1 person dead and 1 new functioning member of society, you kill the murderer you have 2 people dead and nothing to show for it. I don't get the second part, are you saying we should kill the murderer BEFORE he kills the innocent? (I think you worded that wrong.) [editline]05:42PM[/editline] [QUOTE=yodafart9;22698632]There's no such thing as evil.[/QUOTE] Then why not rehabilitate?
Look, Lach, you're smarter than JDK and whatever...I forgot the other guys name. I know what you mean, I see what you mean, you're right, rehabilitation is great and all, I personally think there's a limit to when they should be saved or not, but that's just me. But just because you can rehabilitate them doesn't make them worth more than a regular person, they did a terrible thing, the innocent person did not.
[QUOTE=Gummylamb;22698669]Look, Lach, you're smarter than JDK and whatever...I forgot the other guys name.[/QUOTE] lol now you're measuring people's intelligence you're a fucking idiot who has no room to speak
[QUOTE=JDK721;22698679]lol now you're measuring people's intelligence you're a fucking idiot who has no room to speak[/QUOTE] Your intelligence is 5.6 feet.
It's funny because I'm only an idiot because I disagree with your opinion. How's about we just settle this and stop the name calling, you aren't dumb, you aren't an idiot.

[QUOTE=yodafart9;22698687]Your intelligence is 5.6 feet.[/QUOTE] you've done nothing but repeated over and over that an eye for an eye is a good thing without explaining why stop posting

[QUOTE=yodafart9;22698700]Because that's not safe.[/QUOTE] Killing people because it's safer then rehabilitating them? Safer for who?

[QUOTE=Lachz0r;22698731]Killing people because it's safer then rehabilitating them? Safer for who?[/QUOTE] It's safer for the innocent.
[QUOTE=yodafart9;22698737]It's safer for the innocent.[/QUOTE] It will be a sad world when in the name of safety we forsake anyone that's made a mistake.
[QUOTE=yodafart9;22698737]It's safer for the innocent.[/QUOTE] There's nothing wrong with rehabilitating people, I don't really see what you're talking about.
[QUOTE=Lachz0r;22698750]It will be a sad world when in the name of safety we forsake anyone that's made a mistake.[/QUOTE] Welcome to earth.
[QUOTE=yodafart9;22698759]Welcome to earth.[/QUOTE] I live on the moon with Jesus.
