It's typically immature behaviour from Trump .....

That is a German Nazi term for those who have no right to live and should be euthanised on the basis of race or disability or sexual tendencies - so you are inferring that Trump is a Nazi sympathiser? As per the "left wing" media ? Do you agree with these views for certain races, the disabled and those with disabilities?

It is an expression that is common parlance well before it was used by the Nazis. I infer NOTHING so no ceegar lady.

In this case it refers to filth who have lost any justification to be kept alive and who in spite of being "Unnütze Esser" (he he!) continue to be fed and watered.

Although I abhor capital punishment I equally abhor these "Untermensch" (he he!) who by their tribal savagery have lost the right to life in our civilised world.

We own every breath they take but never outside of jail and preferably in some form of oubliette.

Re: Trump to execute 5 convicted killers

It seems to me that the public overwhelmingly wants to be rid of certain killers. Take Ted Bundy, for example. Bundy was a serial killer who had a 4 year rampage (1974-1978) spanning across America, where he killed in excess of 36 woman. Bundy was finally captured and executed in Florida.

I am not convinced that executing people PREVENTS others from killing if that is what they have a mind to do. Serial killers, especially, have a warped mind that drives them to kill.

In the end, all we can say is that executing a person MAY bring some relief to the families of the victims of the killer.

It's not a common expression unless you want to be associated with the ideology of Nazi Germany. Why do you keep using German in your posts? Do you have an obsession with the Third Reich?

Re: Trump to execute 5 convicted killers

Trump is just a spoilt brat.He lost the election so he's going to take it out on someone.His thought processes go no deeper than that.

Although not my argument, I see nothing wrong with Todger using German (or indeed any other language) in his posts. Indeed, the term "Lebensunwertes Leben" is a somewhat apt term in this thread, since there does seem to be a bit of a prevailing view that terrorists fulfil the criteria.

I don't agree that this is an apt term in this day and age unless you support Nazi german ideology. It is also a way of cloaking what you might not want to say in plain English to take the edge off. Reeks of a fear of rejection and evasiveness. In other words cowardly and a bit desperate.
