You can never

You can never stop somebody from killing, But once guilt is established you can prevent that person from killing again. with the ability of DNA tecnology things will be a bit clearer cut. When you are sure. Pull the plug and be done with it. Violent criminals should be taught a good lesson, one they will not forget. I have known of people who have entered and existed the penal system numerous times and have never learned a lesson. A waste of time and energy, Now a few Cane swats across the back would of changed their attitude, But I feel the cable tv and phone rights do little to help reabilitate them. I don't know, Maybe I'm just a mean man, But I would see that the law abiding had the best chance of living a safe life if it was in my power. Live within the laws of society or pay a price. Everybody treated the same, Blue , Black, White or Green. KT

Did you know?

That the Democrats would like to get all prisoner in the country the right to vote while incarcerated? It's true, I guess they know that 10 to 1 the criminal element will always vote democratic. KT

No rights

I think that once you are in prison your rights should be taken away. You don't deserve to have any rights if you can't follow the law and respect other people's rights. Prison is like a mini vacation for many. We need to make it a place where you really don't want to go. Quit giving them t.v, phones, conjugal visits, and whatever else they give them. That's one of the reasons prisons are so crowded. It's really not a bad place to go.

My 2 cents

Regarding previous discussions I have had concerning the death penalty, I will never forget this quote: ''it is the only just punishment for murder''.

I also remember talking to a 66 year-old catholic woman who was always opposed to the death penalty. I asked her how she felt about the death penalty after her first-born child was murdered. Her reply: ''I don't know any more''.

Everyone has a right to an opinion regarding the death penalty. There is no real wrong or right answer. Oh yeah, that 66 year-old catholic woman, she is my mother.

P.S. I only checked out this discussion because I thought it was an attempt to remove Keiko from using this site (banishment only).
