But that's just it...it isn't "one reckless act", it's a premeditated scheme that can go on for years.

yes i agree with u, maybe i was not too clear, that one reckless act can have many consequences thats why i also think it can be as a serious crime as none white colour crimes.

I'm for something slightly less final. Tar and feathers then a long stretch in prison, and not one of those minimum security ones either.

Do you also favor the tar-and-feathers regimen for murderers.

This, for clarification of your general stance, you understand.

Congratulations on your improved spelling, sir; only two tiny mistakes.

Carry on.

Good man.

State sanctioned murder.

I lose track of how many miscarriages of Justice are carried out that we find out about.

I'm sure there could be a pretty standard non mind changing debate about the moral issues and you are correct errors are made at trial.

But the question I was asked was what I want to do with murderers and not about the reliability of the trial process.

I believe murderers should be executed, not innocent people. I will add that I'm not for a mandatory death sentence. The circumstances leading to the murder and things like mental retardation etc. should be taken into account.
