I think that the US media should stop inciting people against China and Chinese. It's not like the rest of the world doesn't know what you liberal/socialist/progressives wackos are up to; again as usual. liberals only care about "being green" but only force it on others, not themselves, a continuation of poverty by creating a dependent nanny state and wealth redistribution, a solution to overpopulation by eugenics, a continuation of terrorism, racism, and any other prejudices based on race or religion Christianity.- cif you call yourself a liberal - then you are supporting an ideology that fundamentally exists as a roadblock to common sense, freedom and liberty, and are in support of statism and tyranny and collectivism. Liberaliism by the very nature is a backwards philosophy, and every time a liberal party was in charge of the US we saw a rise in racism and race baiting, warfare, and economic disaster, stagflation, rise in unemployement.

As I said before in this thread; this kind of generalization is not okay...

Generalizing a group of people like this isn't okay either. Every group has stupid people, and not everyone in a group is stupid. Don't judge people based on political alignment; rather, take the time to talk to them and you may find you agree on more than you thought. Even if you don't agree on much, at least you took the time to understand their point of view and can sympathize with it, even if you still disagree. You'll make fewer people angry when you talk politics too, as you won't be infuriating half of the country whenever you make a comment like this. |

I just wanna say I'm glad there are more people on this side who doesn't lack common sense. Especially americans seems to be putting a lot of weight on this "fight fire with fire" logic. Just look at the death penalty; greatest f*****g irony ever. |
Saying that I and others lack common sense is rather arrogant of you.
I think that the death penalty should be used rarely, but I think that there are times in which it is necessary, such as when you have a criminal so dangerous that you don't want to take the risk of them ever escaping and causing more damage, and when you are certain well beyond a reasonable doubt that they are guilty. It should be used with hesitation, as it is horrible if you get it wrong, but I believe that in rare cases, it is reasonable. Beyond that, we'll simply have to agree to disagree. I have yet to see evidence for serious punishment not working in my life, and I have seen plenty of times where it did work. I think that it is a great motivational tool when used properly, and I think that it is entirely appropriate in this case. I fail to understand how teaching these kids will help in any way whatsoever, as that provides no incentive for them to never repeat the crime.
