Re: Need your opinions

Actually, all posts are closed after they are about a month old to stop pointless thread bumping...but yeah, it would probably have kicked off sooner or later :lol:

Threads with touchy subjects are likely sooner or later to collapse. :P
 
Re: Need your opinions

Pretty much everyone will have a differing opinion about the subject, and we can all argue the merits of for or against forever and a day. There will always be points and counterpoints to this and other hotly debated topics. I think very rarely will arguments like this sway one side or the other.

Basically, it comes down to what your morals are, and what you believe is the right thing to do. Since each person has a different set of morals, conflict ensues.
 
Re: Need your opinions

Yes but MY morals are the right morals to have :P
 
Re: Need your opinions

Nuh-uh!!!!!!!1 Mine are!!!11
 
Re: Need your opinions

You are both wrong, you jerks! My morals is the fo'shizzle, or rather my lack of morals! And my dad can uh...beat your dads!
 
Re: Need your opinions

I did just say for on the poll but now I've changed my mind. After thinking about it I realised there was a better use for these people. While we have hugely overcrowded prisons in the UK, to the point where Police are told to bother arresting criminals, I don't think death is an appropriate punishment. To me, death is the easy way out. I think people in prison need to be put to work, they should work 12 hours a day for nothing but a slab of concrete and 2 meals a day. This way, the costs of running the prisons would be completely covered by the people residing in them. It would bring the price of manufacturing down in the UK, and keep alot of money in the UK that would usually be sent out to places like China and Taiwan.

USA is one of the few countries that still has it, yet it doesn't have any less rate of murders than any other country . infact, they've got alot more of them than, for example, Sweden. So I am against it for several reasons:

Obviously the US has a larger murder rate than Sweden, the US is 20 times the size of Sweden and it has 30 times the population.

Amen to that! Make 'em work, make 'em pay!

I put it the wrong way: Murder in the states ranks higher, waaaay higher, on the list of causes of deaths than any other country.


 
Re: Need your opinions

OK I wasn't being serious about that Evil thing. But honestly, I think that it should be banned. I think that rotting away until you die in a high security prison is worse than death, and is what murderers should get instead.

Neither was I - just poking fun at your supposedly good nature. :ninja:
 
Re: Need your opinions

Although I no way doubt your abilities to read if you skim over my original post it simply states I don't want this to be debated. I just want you opinions and votes. Thats all...

Well...you can't seriously hope a serious issue like this not to be followed by some sort of debate?

And uhm...as I take it you are doing some sort of school report(?), nothing forces you to take the debate in consideration. Most people who have replied stated their opinion and voted, so you've got what you wanted.
 
Re: Need your opinions

Sadly, with opinion comes debate....or something...
 
Re: Need your opinions

With opinion comes people with ....different opinion which.... brings...debate
 
Re: Need your opinions

I knew that was coming, and just so you know it isn't my report. Yes I understand that something like this comes with debate, but that doesn't mean you have to start one... But I don't want anyone to counter this post with anything else, so drop it.
 
Re: Need your opinions

I only voted, because Fable freak said he didn't want a debate. so I listened :ninja:
 
Re: Need your opinions

Thank you Markie, as you can tell I'm maintaining a neutral status as not to stir the pot too much...
