Is it God who you are saying is fickle or members of the forum MB - maybe you are saying we are God?Re: The Death Penalty
Maybe if the reform system was more successful with hardened criminals, who often, upon release, go straight ahead and offend again, what is the point of repeating a set of procedures that doesn't work?Re: The Death Penalty
I am not a religious person but a kind of humanist and pacifist being adversed to violence of any kind and wanting to treat others as I would wish to be treated myself .Re: The Death Penalty
Ok, I'll be the devil's advocate: Doesn't the death penalty on human beings bring us down to the same level as those that have committed killings? Has anyone the right to take a life. I find it hard with love and compassion to put a dog to sleep but then I am making the decision because I love the animal. Revenge is not the answer. We must make them pay for their crime but in a more reasoned way. Hard labour for life perhaps where they have time to consider their crime and whether it was worth it.
