RE: What the **** are you on about now? So, when you don't agree with someone, you resort to silly personal insults like this? I thought you'd be more clever than that, and I'm sure you are... I know you've got kids and everything (well, if I remember correctly) so maybe that's why you take this all so personally.
RE: Why did I head the comment with a phrase like "psuedo liberals"? More to the point, lets investigate & sort out why these things happen in the first place. As a parent myself I totally sympathise with someone's gut reaction to want to end this person's life. BUT, I couldn't torture someone or kill them so I don't think it's right that the state do it either. I also know what a lot of kids go through growing up & what some of them then become. That is what needs adressing imo.
RE: Why did I head the comment with a phrase like "psuedo liberals"? "Taking a life is wrong - full stop, the death penalty is abhorrent and has no place in a civilised society." I refer the honorable gentleman to my previous thread in which I point out that it is the self-proclaimed liberals who are in fact those most guilty of intellectual fascism. You make it impossible to debate.
RE: Narthen I agree that 12 years is too little, but some of that will be down to the fact that he confessed & presumably showed remorse.
RE: Heh heh. Why would you get mad at me? I'm trying to have a sensible debate here, and then you take it much further than that with the RK connection and personal insults. S)
RE: Why did I head the comment with a phrase like "psuedo liberals"? It's not a gut reaction for me mate. It's the result of hours of conversation with my sister whose job it is to asses these people. I'm well settled in my mind where I stand on this as are those who are resigned to the fact that they can only work within the perameters of the system and sadly know they are allowing people to re-enter society who will reoffend.
A tip re these little digs. You need to keep at least one foot in reality. Just banging your head on the keyboard doesn't work.
RE: Why did I head the comment with a phrase like "psuedo liberals"? and Eaststander makes it impossible to debate.
RE: Why did I head the comment with a phrase like "psuedo liberals"? I said "I'm well settled in my mind where I stand on this." Not "You're wrong and that's a fact." **** me, this board.
RE: I'll do it for nothing. I,d do it no sweat, this country trained me for 10 years to kill so let em have their monies worth and if Windy wants to kick em to death I,ll even buy his ******* boots
No? Obviously you oppose capital punishment but don't feel capable of entering the debate and are a bit scared of identifying yourself so let's see if we can ease you in a bit. What sort of statement is this? - "Taking a life is wrong - full stop, the death penalty is abhorrent and has no place in a civilised society."
Come on Eastie.... ....I know you're not that dumb. You're stating your opinion as "fact, full stop" Think about it.
