Personally, with all of the uproar over the death penalty, I would prefer something that would be arguably cruel and unusual, but nearly as effective as execution. I think that simply severing the condemned’s spinal column in the lumbar region thereby rendering them paralyzed from the waist down should be offered as a viable option. It would greatly hamper their ability to ever escape and should evidence come up that exonerates them later, they’d still be alive. They would be able to be trained to perform other functions and perhaps even return to a useful life in a couple of decades, without society having to worry about them recidivating. There just aren’t very many mass murderers out there in wheelchairs.

I take it you’re not catholic.

Many catholics follow the church teachings that ALL murder is wrong and anti-christian, whether it be abortion or the death penalty.

My point is for you all to keep in mind that not all anti-DP folks are what you might consider loony liberals, when in fact there are many are religious conservatives who feel strongly about capital punishment.

The stats anti dp folks post usually represent a technicality in the law and not that the person is actually innocent of the murder. Thankfully dna has wiped out any argument they can put forth.

What we really need to focus on is the abortion. I was astonished when I heard it was 47 million in 30 years. So next time any anti dp idiot starts quoting me stats I’m just going to ask how they like THEIR figures being off the charts.

This is the kind of sub-human pos the DP was intended for. So…we’re supposed to feel sorry for this waster of oxygen? I say kill his lawyer along with him…

Yesterday I sat down and wrote a masterpiece of a post. I even proofread it carefully and fixed all of the grammatical and spelling errors. It was a gem, worthy of all the effort I put into it.

Then I clicked the “Submit Comment” button and was utterly frustrated! I so wanted to post on HilLiary’s campaign problems but could not!

Pam, I used to have your email addy but apparently it has changed. Is there some way I could send interesting material to you for possible posting here? I think you have my gmail address; if that’s okay (to send stuff) could you send me a new email contact address?

The anti-DP folks are out of arguments. This arguing about lethal injection is a red herring. They just don’t want any executions, period. Too bad.

There are no longer any arguments left against the DP. DNA evidence is conclusive, and all of the pending cases are automatically being reviewed in light of the new methods.

The ones that are guilty, proven by DNA, should be executed forthwith.
