Its people LIKE YOU, JUST LIKE YOU, that havent been affected by someone murdering a member of your family. I could give a crap about your belief on the death penalty. And Ill guarantee that YOU, or CO87, or anybody else that opposes the death penalty would change your views if somebody walked into your house and butchered your family. If you give me that garbage about labor camps (if you want to talk about a dying breed, you just named one), or rehabilitation for their crimes (:lmao: ), then go ahead, you'll be wasting your breath. You havent dealt with these lifers. Let me tell you, they DO NOT live a bad life. Three meals a day, showers, free medical, library books, etc. Oh, did I forget to mention that thats at a SUPERMAX prison??? THAT'S THE REALITY OF OUR RAPISTS, MURDERERS AND MOLESTERS. They DONT go to labor camps to die. And THIS, my friend, is something I know WAY MORE THAN YOU about.

This statement proves that you kow absolutely nothing about the death penalty. Why do you think the state of Illinios has stopped all executions?

I have a better solutions for the guy who raped, molested and murdered a family. Lets put him in a labor camp making big rocks into little rocks all day. Work him so hard that he dies of natural causes at an early age so we don't have to feed him forever. I'm not against punishment and I don't support counseling for Criminals given life sentences. However If an inmate doesn't get life in prison he or she must be rehabilitated through counseling and education otherwise when thay get out they will victimize people the same way they did before getting locked up. Now if you don't mind lets get back to coal mining or start another thread about the death penalty. PS have you seen the movie Monsters Ball? Great movie about the Texas Prison system death squads.


P.S. The United States Constition and the Bill of Rights give all US Citizens protection from "Cruel and Unusual Punishment". If the death penalty isn't Cruel and Unusual then I don't know what would be.
