My <removed> God, Another poll?

Pardon the language, but what is up with everyone whoring the polls lately? :ermm:

Anyway, I don't really care. Almost all of the time I think they deserve it though.

You know, this is Brain Juice. It's meant to be an intellectual forum. You shouldn't be swearing on SZ at all, much less in what is supposed to be the most intelligent forum. And what's worse, you're evading word filters. I'm giving you a verbal warning. Do it again, and that bar of your's won't be as colorless as it is now.

Well if someone kills someone, they deserve death (Don't get technical on me on the whole "what if..?" "what if..?" crap. I'm talking a general homocide. Honestly, doing that will make YOU look stupid and desprate to start an argument, even wiithout this disclaimer).

And just for not formatting the poll correctly, I voted for all three selections :)

No it's not. I’m not really tied down by a religious reasoning, so I feel that murderers do not deserve to live. If they do live, innocent citizens have to pay for their food and stuff.

If someone rapes children and then murders them, do they need to be alive ? Drunk Driving is the same thing. They knew that driving drunk can cause death on someone innocent. Do we need these people around ? How about mass murderers, or kids who shoot up schools ? They put pot smokers who havn't killed anyone in jail with people who have killed 3 people and raped 10 kids. Is that fair ?

I think it depends on the case too, but why do people say no death pentalty no matter what ? Do you want to have your 1 year old son killed by a murderer and then find out he gets free lunch and a room in jail and can watch tv and work on with your tax dollars ? That's screwed up.

Woah woah woah. Drunk drivers need to put to death? Now hold on just a second there. Are you saying that for every ignorant and stupid teenager out there who accidently drives under the influence the death penalty needs to be ensued? I don't think so. That would take everything completely out of hand. Completely.

And sure the prisoner gets 'free lunch' and a room in jail, but have you ever been to one? Have you seen the conditions they live in? After that I don't think one can freely say that they get free lunch and a room and still be happy with it.

"who accidently drives under the influence the death penalty needs to be ensued?"

Um, they know before they drink that it can harm innocent people, and they know it's a crime... so isn't that premeditated ? YES!

"And sure the prisoner gets 'free lunch' and a room in jail, but have you ever been to one? Have you seen the conditions they live in? After that I don't think one can freely say that they get free lunch and a room and still be happy with it."

Doesn't mean our tax dollars should go to it does it.


edit: didn't say they should be killed anyways for driving drunk, i was just throwing out different senerios hehe

So you're basically saying that when a person is under the influence and even drives, he or she should be put to death? When people are drunk they aren't exactly aware of their surroundings and from time to time can't tell the difference between wrong and right. If you say people who DUI should die, you're basically saying away with alcohol.

Yeah, sure our tax dollars go to it, but I can tell you now, that's not the only think that guzzles up our money. Yet is anyone arguing about that? No, because it would be obvious that a building filled with criminals should be the number one priority of getting rid of, isn't it?

edit: uh huh...Well still, the way you said it: "Drunk Driving is the same thing. They knew that driving drunk can cause death on someone innocent. Do we need these people around ?"

That's exactly what you said.

Well actually I'm all for a program for drunk drivers, but in general I'm saying that Drunk Driver know ahead of time not to drive. It's there responsibliity to put the keys somewhere they wont get them to drive. Hell, right now I'm on my 5th glass of vodka and 2nd beer, I drink all the time. I have never been behind the wheel of a car after even 1 beer. (insert anti alcohol stuff here) I know that I won't be able to control the car whether I think I could or not after the beer. It's premeditaded murder if I did. I know someone will die if I drink and drive, therefore it's premediated to do so right ? It Technically is becuase I DO KNOW IT !!! Once I drink, yes...I'm imparred, but come on... I knew that before hand, it's my responsiblity. If I drink and get a knife and kill 20 people, is it the beers fault or the fact I'm imparred. NO!

If a drunk driver kills my kids in a car accident, I want him dead. He knew not to drive, he chose to do so anyways, it's his fault period.

btw lady - great debate, I love how members here at the skinzone debate nicely and maturly ! I must say, it's been a pleasure :)

It's true that if I had kids (I can't believe I'm thinking this at 17) I'd want the man or woman behind the wheel to die, but it's an instinct that every parent has. When their child is killed, they become sad and depressed and need someone to blame, to kill to make them in turn feel better. I just don't think it's right. I don't believe in an eye for an eye

And it's been good debating with you too. :]

I say you kill 'em. I know it's wrong, but so is bush

Stop bringing bush into everything you ******* :ermm:

I say, why risk the killers / rapists getting free and murdering more people? Kill them! Or... For rapists you could sterilyze them... That would work me thinks ^o)

It obviously depends on the crime. For example, Shoplifting, no way! But if were talking about a murderer, go for it! I don't mean to sound...I don't know...maybe barbaric? But if the guy is out there killing people, then I think it only right, in order to save a bunch of other peoples lives, he deserves nothing more than what he gave to others. Death.

Okies. Rereading that, it sounded sorta harsh...

I say yes.

If someone would dare--let's say--kill a child, then there could be no more right punishment. If you're that sick to hurt a child, let alone anyone, you should pay with your life.

I guess I do see your view point but I still disagree. Anyways, it costs more to put a prisoner to death then to give them food and shelter.
