Falcone/Garcia now working to expose animal abuse?

"Suffering" may be too strong a word. A lot of prisons, at least in the western world, are way too cushy.

'cushy', Seriously?
Ask anyone whos ever been to prison if its cushy. anyone. ever.

And you're "quick ending" presupposes something far worse than anything here isn't waiting for them.

You're imposing your beliefs upon society which isn't exactly separation of church and state.
So considering some believe in a hell and some don't, isn't it wise therefor to ensure with certainty punishment IS meted out IN CASE you're wrong?

The US is the only western country in the world with the death penalty. So every other civilized nation on earth doesn't take crime seriously?
Evidently not.

Dude. Seriously.

The problem I have is with people who are against it even when there is no question.

You can't understand, not agree, but understand, their may be understandable perspectives other than yours?

In fact, the whole innocents being executed is often a smokescreen argument and not the core reason they're against it.

The state sanctioned murder of 117 innocent men (undeniably many more), is not what I, or their families, would call a smokescreen. And yes, there are other reasons to be against it, but this reason is certainly a valid argument on its own.

You know what Sonny, I understand your point but the reason you and I won't go on and on with the debate is because I don't care if 1 guy out of 100 guys on death row should not be there. Doesn't mean that the one guy is St Peter. It just means that 1 out of 100 should not be on death row. I don't fucking care. I would rather see the 99 other guys die that deserve it. The one guy who should not have been on death row is probably some low life smaller criminal anyway. So again, I just don't care.

A lot of those so called "innocents" are career criminals or general scumbags who managed to get jammed up for something they didn't do but got away with a lot more. Call it karmic justice.
