Which is why I said that I support the current treatment + punishment system that jail has to offer. It is simply the best available solution at the moment, like you said.

(I have said this before, but anyway) This thread is not mainly about that though. It's about defending the criminals (from hate), as the title suggests. And, of course, the illogical electric chair. Why would you end someone's life because he happened to fall under the 'unfortunate' category? I say we should make that person fortunate instead.



Why should we not hate them? Hate is an extreme disliking of someone. You can extremely dislike someone while still believing they had no control over their actions. Hate is a feeling & is many times uncontrollable. As long as people don't act with hatred, then we're fine.


This has also been clarified before by saying: "Hate the crime, don't hate the criminal."

A person is lots of experiences, essentially. You can't hate him/her for experiencing them but you can hate the experiences.
