Should be on pay per view for all to see. Might really act as a deterrent and defray the costs of the legal process.

You Brits had the right idea. Hanging, beheading and the like held in the town square.

Yes but we evolved to become more civilized and put those dark days behind us.

The executioner also had the right to auction off the clothes worn by the hanged man on the day of his execution.
The rope was also sold as it was believed to have magical powers.

In the US, should equal one appeal, then 90 days and out. Here in the State of Cal we have a Richard Allen Davis who broke into a teen slumber party took a teen, Polly Klaus, raped her and killed her. He gave the finger to her father during the trial. He has been on death row for over 10 years at a cost of $1 million to the state, he gets better medical care than seniors. His heart, liver, and kidneys could have been used to keep a worthy human alive.
What are our priorities: keeping a wortless piece of shit alive or giving another human a chance to live and 1million dollars for counselors in our schools.
Educators know that some humans simply can not live with other humans at an early age. Counseling is the best deterent for crime, not after the fact.

Dunno. You tell us

Nine of the 16 men put to death this year in Texas, including Richard, have been black. Six were Hispanic; only one was white.

Well Antsy, just whose fault is it that darkies and spic's kill more folks than whites do, so only seems reasonable that more of them go down for it.
Equal rights do not mean that they have to limit executions to even numbers of whites and minorities.
Or are you trying to tell us that Blacks, Browns and whites each rape and kill an equal number of people?

I think you'll find that the statistics don't support what you're saying, BG.

I think you'll also find that sentencing statistics show that you've a much greater chance of having the death penality imposed on you if you are black (o other minority) than if you are white; even if it's for the same crime.

Check again Antsy, Black On Black is the majority of violent crime in America.

If it is done more than any other race then it just proves that Blacks are not usually able to be rehabilitated and so will return to crime if released, so just throwing good money after bad.

The Point. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -> You.

Nope, you've missed it again BG.

Hopefully third world countries like this will gradually develop to the point where they realise that capital punishment is neither a deterrent nor a cure for crime.

keeping a convicted criminal off the streets, away from their victims, and unable to offend again (by imprisonment or execution) seems like a good deterrent/cure to me.

the rights and needs of victims and potential victims should come before anything else.

education ? should come from the parents, lowlife parents will usually have lowlife kids, if lowlife parents had been locked away for their lowlife ways then they wouldnt be flooding the streets with all their lowlife offspring.

got to be tough with crims. right from the first offence.

Agreed, In all countries of the world that have capital punishment..would you believe people still commit 'crimes' (interpretations vary..drugs etc)

I think black people only make up about 10-14% of Americans, is that true? so then the percentage is far greater?

agreed others need to pull their fingers out, to get a decent rating..

The last executions in England happened on 13th August 1964.
Peter Anthony Allen and his accomplice, Gwynne Owen Evans were executed by hanging for the murder of John Alan West in April 1964.


The last execution in Scotland was on 15th August 1963.
Henry John Burnett was executed by hanging for the murder of Thomas Guyan.

The last execution in Northern Ireland was on 20th December 1961.
Robert McGladdery was executed by hanging for the murder of Pearl Gamble.

In Wales, the last execution was of Vivian Tweed on 6th May 1958 for murder.
The last woman to be executed in England was Ruth Ellis, who was hanged on 13th July 1955 for murder.

So there we go.

Correct. Only reasons can be blacks commit far more murders than whites as BG points out or blacks receive death penalty more often than whites.

Of course they do . . . do you really believe it is a deterrent?

No PH I don't think that it a deterrent or a detergent either...
that is though....

You calling me a fairy now? Shocking behaviour!

People would not commit any crimes if they thought that they were going to get caught, as a rule and more people with a good homelife and parents that care and teach their children seem to be in court and jail a lot less than people who do not care and run wild as kids.
And the people with the more strict childhoods and of the higher IQ bloodlines seem to commit less violent crimes and less of all crimes in general.
If you have a dog that keeps biting people then you will keep him in a pen or on a chain or have him put down, same is done with criminals and that is a costly business and most that are guilty of murder, do their 7 to 10 years life, and are released into the general public do it again and people with the population of the USA are not going to pay the pay the $50,000 or more to keep a killer alive for 50 years when they can be put down for a lot less.

No Antsy, you have no ideas about the subject so had better educate your self on numbers and facts, as it is you have no point to discuss, only just your regulatr shit stirring and I see that you have picked up an old friend that we will have to keep an eye on as he is a stalking cocksucker.

Maybe they should do the same with doctors? If they fuck up and kill someone, when their term is up they can get voted out.

As civilised as people who abhor soap can get, but you're comparing your country to a very low base in this discussion.

crime statistics by race for those who cry racism... - Topix
Second, Expanded Edition
Major Findings
• Police and the justice system are not biased against minorities.
Crime Rates
• Blacks are seven times more likely than people of other races to commit murder,
and eight times more likely to commit robbery.
• When blacks commit crimes of violence, they are nearly three times more likely
than non-blacks to use a gun, and more than twice as likely to use a knife.
• Hispanics commit violent crimes at roughly three times the white rate, and
Asians commit violent crimes at about one quarter the white rate.
• The single best indicator of violent crime levels in an area is the percentage of
the population that is black and Hispanic.
Interracial Crime
• Of the nearly 770,000 violent interracial crimes committed every year involving
blacks and whites, blacks commit 85 percent and whites commit 15 percent.
• Blacks commit more violent crime against whites than against blacks. Fortyfive
percent of their victims are white, 43 percent are black, and 10 percent are
Hispanic. When whites commit violent crime, only three percent of their victims are
black.
• Blacks are an estimated 39 times more likely to commit a violent crime against
a white than vice versa, and 136 times more likely to commit robbery.
• Blacks are 2.25 times more likely to commit officially-designated hate crimes
against whites than vice versa.
Gangs
• Only 10 percent of youth gang members are white.
• Hispanics are 19 times more likely than whites to be members of youth gangs.
Blacks are 15 times more likely, and Asians are nine times more likely.
Incarceration
• Between 1980 and 2003 the US incarceration rate more than tripled, from 139
to 482 per 100,000, and the number of prisoners increased from 320,000 to 1.39
million.
• Blacks are seven times more likely to be in prison than whites. Hispanics are
three times more likely.

Well you just keep telling yourself that and posting nonsense stats cut 'n pasted from another forum if it makes you feel better.
