Interesting posts and yet no one answered Cheri's question. Maybe because they can't fathom it ever happening to them?

I thought the answer was implied. Disagrreement with the death penalty applies across the board. I am ethical enough not to impose my beliefs on others without applying them to myself, as well. And emotion should never be a deciding factor in a legal decision. That would increase the already large margin of error.

You answered my question in year of 2006, I thought you said many times to leave the past in the past, so today is 2008... So would your answer be the same answer as it was in 2006?

I believe liebling did answer your question, I don't think she was just talking about the post, I think she talking about this topic about the death penality. If I am wrong, I becareful not to jump to the wrong informations.

There are always a yes and a no on death penatly that can drive us up the walls in a nutshell. For, me I do believe death penalty is there for a reason or more than one reasons. It gives prosecutors another bargaining chip in the plea bargain process, which is essential in cutting costs in an overcrowded court system.

And a person who suffers froma mental illness is a victim, even though he may be a criminal as well. I'm fairly certain no one asks willingly to become mentally ill. |

Yes I have to agree on that too. But funny, that criminal lawyers look for excuse to keep a murder or rapist or any other type of a crimes a person committed to use mental ills for excuse to avoid jail and prison. I wonder if any familiy or people out there think if death penalty put the family to rest or only cause more pain?

If an individual is found "not guilty by reason of insanity", (an extremely rare occurrance because of the strict criteria necessary), they are placed in a mental health facility, not freed to walk the streets. Likewise, what purpose does it serve to sentence someone to death who is so mentally ill that they are incapable of not only understanding the difference between right and wrong, but unable to understand the nature of their punishment, as well? It is totally contractiory to the purpose of punishment, and at that point beomes nothing more than legally sanctioned murder of those that society have deemed to be of lesser value or defective. |

and then he got caught because of security camera or whatever... who knows... you'd want him to have a death penalty. You as the mother of victim are given a choice to speak at the court before the judge finalizes his ruling to decide the criminal's fate - life sentence or death penalty.

DEATH PENALTY FOR HIM! You kill, you die for it. That's where I stand. ![]() ONE EXCEPTION - If our prison system is as bad as Siberian prison or Chinese prison, I vote for life imprisonment. Our prisons are the best in the world - you get free healthcare, 3 square meals a day, and all amnesties (bed/gym/tv/etc). No way in hell am I going to let that murderer live comfortably for remainder of his life in prison.

You kill, you die. Pretty black and white. What about killing in self defense? What about murder by complicity? What about a 6 year old that gets ahold of daddy's hunting rifle and accidentlly discharges it killing a playmate. Do we execute the 6 year old, too? Life is not as cut and dried as you seem to believe. |
