The death penalty?
Indeed, execute the insane...sounds nice doesn't it

At this time in the US, I'm pro death penalty for one reason, "life" doesn't always mean "life." If the murderer can ever get out for any reason (other than an overturned conviction, obviously), then I'd rather they be executed.
Hmmmmm...what use is an overturned conviction after execution?

In this case 0% is certainly possible.
Nope, think about it

If someone is such a psycho they cannot help but murder---say a pedo who murders---then I have zero problem executing the insane.

Sigh.

My point was that I want either death, or LIFE in jail (if the perp is insane, the "jail" can be an equally secure mental facility, but the term still needs to be "life.")

Since we do not have that in the US---people get let out early, or in the case of insanity, they can be released because they are "well"---I favor the DP. My entire point regarding a proper life term, was that it prevents accidental deaths. Note that no one goes to the DP in the US without a full set of appeals---THAT is when it would have been overturned.

If they are locked up in some facility for life, they cannot kill again---except other patients/convicts. Given their secure environment this is far less likely. Also, if they kill another murderer... I won't lose sleep.


BTW, if you mix quotes, attribute them, you made it look like I wrote some of that tripe.

Sorry tater, I didn't mean to associate you with that tripe.

Don't take this the wrong way, but if someone is insane then they are innocent as they are unnaccountable for their action ain't they.....so would this mean executing the "innocent"?

So you would indeed be satisfied with the thing people objected to.

So because yo have doubts about the legal and medical system being able to do their job to a satisfactory level you favour them just killing so its over and done with?
wind that back a bit...because they can't ensure they do their job properly they should just kil so they don't have the chance to do their job either correctly or incorrectly.

Apart from the fact that patients and convists are not the only people exposed doesn't that put a rather negative turn on your arguement?
Are you saying people with mental health issues can be murdered by a nutcase and it would be Ok as they are only a patient or are you saying that someone in prison for non payment of a traffic ticket can simply be killed as they are a convict.

It was mentioned earlier the problems of dealing in absolutes wasn't it.
That was illustrated before with a statement by Aramike that frankly can only be described as ludicrous.
