Sounds about right. That meal is literally money, time, etc. down the drain.

 

Death penalty is a horrible tradition and should be made illegal. Killing a person ''by law'' isnt any different than just killing it. This isnt inquisition anymore, for Christ sake !!! IT ALSO VIOLATES INTERNATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS LAW.      

 


I suggest you learn that a given action has 2 parts to it. A purpose and consequences, not just consequences. Looking at actions just based on consequence is very naive and ignorant. Then your whole "then it's the same" schtick falls to pieces.


I acknowledge both actions and consequences. Its just that killing someone as punishment for killing someone is pure hypocritical and don't even try to argue about that.

Good god man, you can't go TWO sentences without contradicting yourself. In sentence one you acknowledge that murder is not the same action as killing someone for murder. Then in sentence two you claim it is hypocritical, or the same. Cognitive dissonance much? Do you even realize that your 2 sentences are contradictory?


I can, its just that you are either seeing some unexistant point, or you are totally missing mine. I am all for harsh punishment of a said action, just not the one in which person is killed. Taking away human life is never acceptable, except in self defence and saving innocent life.Whoever does it for any other reason should be severely punished. However, a convict on life sentence cant do any more harm to the society, and if the person he/she killed is already dead(duh), killing a convict wont bring the victim back, so there is no point
