    Yes.

    If one believes in something such as the death penalty then one must be willing to stand by those beliefs.
    Take in though that although I support the death penalty I do believe that it should only be an option where there is no doubt whatsoever. Beyond a reasonable doubt is not good enough.

    it’s an election with no Democrats, in one of the whitest states in the union, where rich candidates pay $35 for your votes. Or, as Republicans call it, their vision for the future.

    @vidcc - ironical to your last reply is ofcourse that you posses a shark as your signature..killer guilty of no doubt whatsoever.

    in the spur of anger i could probably indulge in my revenge anger for justice sake
    (no i didnt take this from a movie (i think/hope..)
    but once conciousness is back what greater punishment is there than to be put in a cell for the rest of your life - the mind is all you have.
    problem is that humans adapt - adapting to a cell life is possible which then becomes normal life... which ofcourse is unjustifiable to the victims of the pain.
    death sentence should be at the moment of criminality not when he/she is "normal" conciounse non killer mode. (although it would enhance awarness of "mortality")

    Awarness of what you are missing or have missed due to your "action" could be a form of treatment in a sick calvinist guilt way- implement this in prisons and the victims might get some justice...

    a friend (psycologist) of mine's job is to analyze whether criminals in prisons who are on the verge of committing suicide - interesting job - lots of stories.

    where is/ how can you /how much justice is enough for the action?

    impossible

    Can you tell me how you equate a shark to murder carried out by humans?

    exactly






    is there such a thing as "natural born killers"?
    at the moment it seems that the naive, believe islam is ment for that purpose (damn tabloids)
    humans do kill for food - everyday & ALOT
    but not cannibalism..
    humans kill humans for Reason (whatever definition their "reason" may have)

    is not HomoSapians prime difference the ability to think?

    then the difference between a shark and a human is very similar - sharks kill for a function - humans kill for "reasonable" function.

    do sharks kill sharks? i don't know i doubt it
    hence my little theory is obsolete

    As you have no idea who I am or my past how can you say that.

    Some people don't deserve to live. the difference between myself and a vigilante is that I would only do it by legal process with fair trial.

    I agree Vid. When there is absolutely no doubt, then the death penalty should be carried out.

    @ 99% The difference between human beings and sharks, other than the obvious ones, is that some 'human' beings kill other human beings for fun, profit, plain cruelty and various other reasons. Sharks kill for food. There may still be a few humans that kill other humans for food, but they are few and far between.


    P.s. when killing on vigilante and sudden revenge rampages , mistakes can be made.

    When could you say that there was "absolutely no doubt". The person saying "I didn't do" it raises a doubt. That's the whole point of the word "reasonable" being used.

    If you bring it back when there is "absolutely no doubt" then it will never happen. Short of the Jury all being eye witnesses, in addition to all the other evidence.

    There are plenty of cases of "Absolutely no doubt". Confessions, eyewitnesses known to the offender, video footage, etc.. Some offenders have even asked to be executed. Plenty of inmates have admitted their guilt, many have apologised before being executed.
