It doesn't matter to me. As long as we are accepting that we are being hypocritical we can torture him to death for all I care.

No, actually, I would say a few years in prison and afterwards maybe an Asylum if he is still a danger to society.

*nods*

think he should undergo psychology or something? there might be an underlying 'problem'.

Yeah, sure, why not...maybe you can rehabilitate him or whatever. But actually my only wish is to protect society from further assaults (while being as humane to the offender as possible).

Really?

What do they use to execute people there?

A shitload of lawyers, judges and other officials?

Oh.

But doesn't the same amount of money go on trials that give him 508 years in prison?

Well, and then they get executed after 20 years in special prisons, with more security and all. I don't know wxact figures, but that is the reasoning that is usually portrayed.

Legal system amazes me. Why just not have him in prison for rest of his life if you are going to let him live 20 years anyway...

Yeah. I mean. either shot a bullet through his head right after the verdict or just...well, don't at all.

Killing someone because they killed someone is hypocritical.

Of course so is locking up someone, but you can't deny the hypocrisy.

Yes and no, the motives differentiate the difference between murder and punishment. But this is being covered in the Saddam thread, come join in and add your thoughts.

True, but that's not the point. Why keep scum like that alive?; that's the point.

Because you want him to suffer.

To kill him is merciful compared to sending him into a life where he will be constantly harassed, beaten up, and threatened with violence for as long as he lives.

Yeah I can see that point of view, ey. But frankly I'd rather not house and feed (ie: take care of) some one I think deserves to die.

It's not like the person executed will be executed the next day and like executing is cheap... In a civilized (if you can really call them that) country with the death penalty they usually stay in jail for anywhere between 10 and 20 years or so before they are actually executed. The costs of that is insane, they also have a different jail complex and what not. Not to mention the costs of actually executing somebody. It ain't cheap.
