Way to go, Huckabee

Torvald Von Mansee · 11-30-09, 11:30 PM

Huckabee is a strange guy to me. He has political/social positions I abhor, but he seems so damn nice!!!!

Well the perpetrator has been permantly dealt with.

Better late than never I suppose... yea tell that to the deceased's family.

Sometimes the board is pushed to do things because of overcrowding. The Broomstick Killer is a classic example of this.

It's a shame that all those innocent people had to pay with their lives in order for this scumbag to reach "his" (IT'S) fitting end.

Duck tape

Sorry that still cracks me up.

Yes he is dead I provided a link a few posts up.

I always wonder why people call it "duck" tape. It is duct tape.

Duct Duct. Originally designed to tape the seams in ducts.

Next time someone calls it duck tape, I will have to cry foul!

Or cry fowl.

But what if I want to tape up my duck?

Which rhymes with Huck.

So I'm not too far off topic yet.

Wading in the muck.

We have overcrowding here as well, which is something I just don't get. Maybe I'm just being dim but isn't the answer kind of obvious? Build more prisons?

What a pack of WHINERS

Your all going to learn someday you can't have it both ways.

OLC - while it might start a debate - its cheaper and quicker to just put em down.

I know many are not death penalty advocates, but the fact is there are people who will never be rehabilitated, have caused death of an innocent or more than one, and instead of costing the taxpayers of the nation - we should give em 2 years on death row to appeal, then execute them at the end of that time if no appeal has been successful.

Personally I'd rather lock them up for life. If I have to pay some extra tax, that's fine.

Issue is, do you want a prison in your neighborhood? I could do without one in mine. I got enough in my vicinity. I wish I had the answer but I don't. The small time offender who does a year or two comes out and continues to commit crime. Usually ends back in prison. The hardcore criminal gets life of course or death penalty but they sit for years on death row. Classic example is the Night Stalker, Richard Ramirez

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Ramirez

Apprehended in 1985 and last I heard was still on the row in 2006. Ever seen the movie Escape for New York? Perhaps that should be done. One island out in the ocean. No means of escape. Drop food weekly. Let'em duke it out on their own.

Better that than dangerous criminals in my neighbourhood.

As for the idea of a prison/penal colony... yeah, I think we Brits did that already. And Australia turned out just fine. Completely rehabilitated. I think we have our answer!

Joke! Joke! Don't hit me!

AVGWarhawk · 12-03-09, 04:28 PM

People get upset with prisons in their neighborhoods because of possible escapes, etc. Some feel the institutions devalue their property. Numerous other reasons. Good point on Australia as a penal colony back in the day. But hey, we get Foster's, shrimp on the barbie, kangroos and Outback Steak House.
