My apologies to you Julie. I'm a little too quick to mud sling. We simply differ on opinions. Sorry for having been a jerk to you.

i am a policitcal conservative, at least a fiscal conservative and sociel moderate.
i support the death penalty, but i agree that our judicial system needs to overhaul how wwe treat criminals to achieve better rehabilitation results.
and of course, withhold the death penalty in cases where there could be doubt.. in mcveigh's case, i believe that he deserves the death penalty.

Haha Jan I figured you would be the one to pick up on that. LOL
I don't deny that I am an asshole. I can be a prick. But I don' say things like "I'll speak slowly for you, so you can understand". I don't look down my nose at the little people and imply that I am all knowing and all wise because of my being "into concise communication"

Julie, I think you will find that your condescending attitude will get you nowhere. As amazing put it, your comments are snide and arrogant. We can disagree with being assholes.

Abaddon,
Yes I do believe that if we cut off the hands of thieves, there would be a huge drop in theft. The adultry thing was a joke. Although I think lowly of anyone who does not remain faithful to his spouse.
Yes the "Stop! or I'll say stop again!". That was part of an old Robin Williams stand up routine. He was talking about how the British police do not carry guns.
People claim that having an abusive childhood turns us into criminals, I was simply stating that I did not turn intop a violent criminal.
I do not have a "rabid" love for the death penalty. I simply feel that it is just. I am not angry as you put it. The only anger I feel is towards those who would commit such atrocious crimes. I think that their victims would agree with me. It seems that all of you opposers have very little sympathy for the victims while you whine and cry for the killer. That makes me angry.
In reply to your suicide statement, I never said that I would kill myself. I said that I would prefer death. If someone said that as my punishment I would have to be sodimized everyday for the rest of my life or I could recieve a lethal injection, I would choose the latter.
The comment was made in referance to Julie saying that that would have been a more suitable punishment. I feel that it would be more inhumane than death.
I believe that your statement that we Americans feel just in the death penalty because we grew up with may be true. My feelings are based on what I perceive to be just. My perceptions of course have root in my upbringing, as do yours.
You speak of barbarism as if Europe has never seen it's share.
I simply feel that anyone that could possibly kill an innocent child. does not deserve to walk the same earth as you a I. I feel that they should in the same manner as they kill. If they rape and mutilate a child, then they should be raped and mutilated, as they are forced to look at pictures of their dead victim.
Glad to see your enjoying you pot-plant! Hug it pass it over
No, I do not feel the same torwards drug usage. In fact, When you do the reseacrh on why most drugs are even illegal in our country, you find that it is bullshit. The only reason LSD was made to be illegal was because our government saw a growing rebelion in youth. Today, if you get caught with LSD, you are charged with "Conspiricy to overthrow the government". Isn't that ridiculous? Cocaine was made illegal because in the 1800's they needed a scapegoat to blame rapes on. The African slaves were blamed for most of this. There are old newspaper articles that read "Drug Crazed Negroes Attack White Women"
It was made illegal because the negro slave enjoyed it's usage.
Opium on the other hand was because of racial hatred torwards the Chinese immigrants in New York city. The white man was enraged to see that white women would go to these opium dens. They believed that the chinese immagrants were suducing the women by using this "sex drug". Pretty lame huh?
lol, I hope you've enjoyed the history of drugs in America. I am a firm believer that if drugs were legal, there would be so much less crime. No more killing someone over a bad drug deal. No more police killing someone because of the illegal nature of drugs. Plus, if they were legal, they'd be a lot cheaper! Imagine walking into your local pharmacy to pick up a 10-strip of acid, or a 10-pack of ecstacy. Or walkin into a convenience store to pack a pack of mary jane.
Didn't mean to ramble on, but you asked.
Also, I enjoy your posts, and would like to say that I feel that we simply disagree on the subject of the death penalty. If I have been rude or disrespectful in any way to you, then I humbly apologize.

Awwwww...did da poor wittle muhdawah have a bad environment to grow up in? Poor wittle guy.
Quit hugging trees with your bleeding heart. Go save some whales or something.
We have all grown up in this same world. Yet I doubt that Amazing has ever killed anyone.We have all been subjected the violence of everyday life. Yet, I can't recall killing anyone either.
What? Is it the video games? Is it television that should be done away with? Bullshit.
I know damn well that here in South Carolina if I were to kill someone, I may face the death penalty. Therefore, even if I had violent tendancies and wanted to murder someone common sense would dictate that I would die. If the average killer isn't smart enough to figure that out, then he or she needs to put out of our misery.

Hi Julie,
you said:
It is obvious they know little or nothing of how the mind works and how childhood will have lifelong effects on us.I do understand how childhood will have long effects on us. I myself endured much as a child from a mother who was manic depressive and took out her anger on me. I'm not looking for pity, I just want to make it clear that being raised in an abusive home did not turn me into a killer. In my opinion, those who blame childhood, or traumatic experiences on their wrongdoings are cowards.
In this country many states have the death penalty. Everyone knows this. Even the person who decides to plant a bomb and kill children knows this. They are not blind to the consequences that face them if they commit these crimes.
I think he'd have suffered more for it if he had been sent to some horrible prison for life where he could be someone's "bitch" and have no control over his life.Is it your opinion then that these violent criminals should be tortured and suffer inhumane consequences? Sodomy as an alternative? Personally, I would rather die than be raped over and over again.
first email........ yes, don't be a silentlamb.
speak out when people are doing the.
molesting, not years later.. that is ridiculous for an adult to say that when they were a child, someone molested her/him.
First I just want to thank Silentlambs for posting this.
Now, sixofnine:
You owe me a new monitor. I was taking a drink of Hawaiian punch as I read your post. Unfortunately, the laughter overwelmed me and I sprayed the screen with red stains. Too funny.
