C'mon stmick their is no need for it.

Now if you had said that in the first place ,LFC #1 wouldn't have pulled you up and you wouldn't have had to abuse your power as mod by removing his post to bury the shame .
You're one of my favourite people in here StMick , but sometimes a little bit devious. .

You are living in the 21th century at one of the most 'democratic' countries and discuss the death penalty..
Why are you so afraid?..Is that so easy; leaving the right way with a terrorist attack? You met with a restlessness a couple of days ago and now most of people say: "Bring the death penalty back!"
Your politicians always say that they bring 'liberty' whereever they go,however they bring only blood,fear and tears. Nowadays, their citizens think that death penalty may be a solution...There arent so much differnce between their politicians and you.
Think over with a healthy head. If the death penalty might be solution, all these problems would have been dissolved in the middle age..Or in the 'wild west'
You are so afraid that only you can, is thinking of limiting your own freedom...What a pity!

read all the posts properly mate, most of us are saying "no" to the death penalty, apart from St Mick who is just saying something somebody else said

IMO death penalty should be enforced, for the worst crimes (serial rapes, serial murders) - in cases when it's obvious that the person won't change when released.
Supporting these b@stards with life sentences is outrageous, some of them have better life conditions than people working their @sses off. Some will say that an innocent person may be killed, but how many lifes would be saved if these halfminded criminals were aware that they face electric chair 
That's my opinion, I'm sick to hear about murderers running freely on streets while some people are afraid to leave home in the evening

It's not like the death penalty does much anyway. In some states of the US, prisoners just sit on death row forever and the death penalty isn't even enforced right.
The planner of the Oklahoma City bombings in 1995 (which killed 168 people) was sentenced to life in prison. You would think he would get the death penalty, but the justice system cares too much for the accused than the families of the victims.
And if you plea guilty, you'll get a lesser charge which makes no sense. The US justice system boggles my mind sometimes.
Britain should bring the death penalty back and enforce it on people who deserve it (serial murders, rapists, terrorists, etc.)

it obviously would not deter a suicide bomber but on financial grounds I'd back it. It costs about £70k a year to hold one person in jail. If we killed the killers then that money could be spent on hospitals and save innocent lives.

But the length and complexity of the legalities involved in sending somebody to death row, then the lengthy (and likely) appeals process would see the cost spiral so I bet the overall cost of a death sentence wouldn't be too different from a life custodial sentence
the only financial winners from reintroduction would be the lawyers, not the taxpayer
ducks.
