And THAT'S why I don't agree with death penalty 🙂 It has absolutely no result. And there is no death penalty here in Greece, something for which I'm very glad.
I was merely doing a assumption.

Well, they will stop if they are dead.
Life in prison for repetitive muderers? Yeah, I can just imagine Usama Bin Laden, Ayman Al-Zawahiri, Glen Stewart Godwin, all nice and comfy behind bars serving a life time sentence. Sure just like that bastard of Manson in that prison.
Is better for humanity to execute these lower than sh*t monsters!! After all they can never escape! Right?. Plus their friends will never forget them.

Yes, and it could cost more money for tax payers. Is just cheaper to execute them. Is not about revenge is about ending a life that only serves one purpose "to kill another person".

A friend of mine same age as me 26 a few months back was beaten unconcious at his home, tied up and had to watch 3 guys and a girl abuse his fiance when she came home and interrupted their robbery. He knows who did it he even identified them to the police but the case was thrown out due to lack of evidence.If I were him I'd have lost the plot and killed them given a chance i'm sure if it was a loved one it happened to.
So the question is. Having ruined 2 peoples lives scarred them for life mentally and physically how far would you be willing to go for your justice and what crimes deserve execution by the state?
Well, I'm against the death penalty. I don't believe that anyone deserves to die, no matter how horrible their crime. However, I have to say that if that happened to my fiance, I might change my mind. I certainly wouldn't just let the police throw the case out.

Spearhead dont speak to me! Im not making anyone look bad I only pointed out how some Americans like windancer make the rest of us look bad with his ideas of capital punishment!
Now run along and go play somewhere else. Okay?

That's the popular belief, but killing them will only make them martyrs. 20 years from now, another revolt might come up, with revenge for Bin Laden being the rallying cry.
