""This would be the best kind of Reality TV we could have along with bringing back Public Hangings.""


3LB said - no it wouldn't

So why not. Public Hangings and Stonings used to go a long way to deter crime and bad behavior. All people know about death and consequences today is what they learn from video games. Such as, everyone who gets maimed, blown up, shot or otherwise, gets up and is fine after the reset or new game starts.

If people actually could see what happens to those who commit these vicious acts end up, how many do you think would follow?

I sure hope you are not advocating that some unproven being or entity will deal with them later at judgement time. We need to deal with these animals NOW.

Followup on my mentioned case. The woman's lawyer is now trying to get her to not be able to stand trial on competency. I call bull**** on that one. She was competent enough to knowingly kill her sisters boyfriend, get custody of her own kids after getting out after ONLY 4 years, competent enough to get custody of multiple handicapped people to steal their checks, mame and torture them but now is not competent to stand trial. Yeah right! And if that goes thru, again the current system has failed.

There is no rehabilitating these people and the money to cage them up is a big waste. She had her second chance, now it's time for the good people to have their chance without the vicious criminals in their way.

Take em out and be done with it, then let the judgement begin instead of waiting 30 years or more victims.

I haven't seen any figures on this

still happened anyway, as it was way easier to evade detection and the law

no argument there

agreed

When a question came up over the use of capital punishment at a recent get-together with friends and aquaintences, I expressed I was for it in cases of premeditated murder, serial rapists and serial child molesters, and the question was put to me, "why do I believe I'm any different from a murderer, when I murder a murderer?" What makes me any better than a murdered if I condone a murder of another human being, especially if that person has serious mental or emotional issues?" I told this person (a female) "I, as one human being to another, promise not to do bodily harm to you; I won't stalk and abduct you, rape you, torture or kill you, nor will I stalk, aduct, rape, torture or kill your children. This is a promise that these psychopaths are either incapable of making or are unwilling to make."

Televised executions may or may not stem the tide of violent crime. Sex offender registration hasn't stemmed the number of child molestations or abductions. Most criminals are just as technically savvy as "normal" people. I'm not in the least bit interested in watching a televised execution.
