In favor of the death penalty ?

Michigans so fucking liberal you could shoot a news anchor in the head on the nightly news and they would give you 20 years of soft time and release you in 10.

Kill someone and you get it right back. Thats the way it should be.

If you are going to take someone's life for committing a 'crime' you've got to be absolutely sure you've got the right person, or at least as certain as it's possible to be. Forget double jeopardy, if new evidence is found or a new way of analyzing existing evidence, bring them back to Court. This maybe sounds like I'm soft on crime but I'm not, just cautious. The last man to be hung in Britain was subsequently found to have been innocent. A bit simple minded; the Police had no trouble getting an admission of guilt out of him.

Isn't there something about; "It's better for 100 guilty men to go free, rather than one innocent man be imprisoned"? I too, think you would have to have DNA, eye witness proof, and other things before executing a man. That said though, I like the way the Russians do it in their gulags. I read that if you are sentenced to die there, they stick you in their "Death Row" where you spend your time wondering when they will come for you. There is no set date, it's up to the discretion of the prison officials. When they do decide it's your day, they lead you to the end of the cells, put you on your knees, and shoot you in the back of the head (all in hearing distance of the other death row inmates). Snikies!

From what I've seen of most news anchors, I'd probably give you a case of beer and a carton of Black Talons.

Just kidding,
