Are you in favor of capital punishment?


I think it's really inhumane. I know that the convicted allegedly did horrible crimes, but we should not stoop down to their level....

reply

Yes I am. The human race needs a judicious amount of culling to eliminate dangerous and destructive individuals.

reply

Some of the most heinous crimes make me think the perpetrators deserve to die but when you consider the possibility of people being wrongly convicted I don’t think the risk of killing an innocent person is worth it just for revenge’s sake.

reply

So you think it's better that one thousand guilty people go free rather than one innocent person be executed?

reply

Yes I said I think guilty people should go free 🙄

Dolt.

reply

No need to get uppity sock puppet. Now back on topic I think it's the other way around. It's far better that one innocent person be executed so that the one thousand guilty people can be executed too. So stop being such a snowflake and think of it as a sacrifice for the overwhelming greater good, which is what it is.


reply

Whatever dolt.

I am in favor of tougher sentencing but not capital punishment.

Now go and dribble your nonsense elsewhere I’m not interested in your shit.

reply

Tougher sentencing means more expense moron whereas executions are cheap. Now after crapping yourself so disgracefully you'll have to put yourself in the wash you silly, smelly sock.


reply

Fuck you sock

reply

Not the smartest sock in the drawer obviously.

reply

Fuck you again sock, smelly sock blah blah fucking blah

reply

Come to think of it, why do you think your lame and often repeated sock puppet is an insult? Why would you care if people have multiple accounts here ? Is MovieChat your only social outlet? No real friends in the real world?

Wow there’s the shock of the century. You seem such a nice guy.

reply

The mask lifts and a puppet master is revealed.

reply

Oh you really are a sad little lonely freak aren’t you. Yea I have 250 profiles here. You still haven’t explained how that affects anyone or makes a difference to your life? Why do you care? Because you have nothing else to care about, do you?

reply

Stay on message sock puppet !

reply

You really think anyone cares if I am don’t you? You are a pitiful freak indeed.

reply

If someone is on tape raping a child. You take the position of defending this person's life?

You ask to spare this persons life as you are against capital punishment?

I say kill em all

reply

Rape isn't really a capital crime anyway. I think it's been 25 years since the last death penalty for rape was executed.

reply

What a piece of shit thing to say.

Or are you genuinely that retarded that you think the choice for those who are found guilty is death or freedom?

I doubt it. Seems like you're just a fucking piece of shit who can't debate honestly.

reply

Another sock puppet is employed to add some extra abuse in an attempt to escalate.

reply

Botcunt

reply

Playing dumb again won't work sunshine, you've been desocked.

reply

Yes friendless Joe here is counting socks because it gives his life some purpose, isn’t that right sock puppet counter?

reply

Getting your socks confused or have you just given up on the pretense this time around ?

reply

Yes I am everyone who hates you and disagrees with your bullshit here. That’s better than facing the reality that you are a fucking jerk who no one likes isn’t it? Count that sock, asshole.

reply

And I think we can all make a pretty good guess as to who this person was in a previous sock. Stick a fork in yourself, you are done.

reply

Oh we can can WE? Who’s that, you and all your friends here?

reply

Getting increasingly hysterical, and desperate aren't WE !

reply

Not at all I love it😘❤️

reply

Sure you do.

reply

I sure do

reply

In the spirit of Thanksgiving...Yes.

And I watch a lot of true crime shows and a lot of them will eventually tell you where the dead body is in order to avoid the death penalty.

reply

Only in America do they have the funds to keep their criminals locked down.

Back in the day it was cheaper and safer to kill criminals as soon as possible.

Today criminals get conjugal visits, free health care, education services,.

If someone is caught on tape raping a child, which there are thousands of videos of this.

Then that person should be hunted down and executed within the year.

Anyone who defends and fights to spare the life of someone on video tape raping a child, is almost as worse.

Blah blah blah, sometimes there are innocent people.

There are plenty of 100% guilty instances.

Concentrate on those and start ridding the world of them

reply

“Only in America do they have the funds to keep their criminals locked down.”

What are you talking about? You do know that many countries abolished capital punishment years ago, don’t you?

reply

Yes it took awhile to get to that progression....but in the early times it was much safer and cheaper to execute evil people as soon as possible.

And the deterrence of watching someone get executed, well it was strong.

Again, people on video tape raping children , like child prorn.

people should not be asking to spare that person's life. No?

reply

I think I made it pretty clear in my initial response that crimes like that make me wish the perpetrators were dead. Would you be in favour of it if you were wrongly convicted of such a crime yourself though? Don’t say it never happens either. Since the introduction of DNA evidence in 92 there have been 20 death row inmates who have been exonerated in the US alone. It’s estimated that at least 4% of death row inmates are innocent. Until a more irrefutable conviction process is introduced I stand by my position that the risk of killing an innocent person outweighs the costs to keep them incarcerated until they die.

reply

Right, that's why I keep saying video proof.

And we can start with the child prorn industry.

People who video tape themselves raping toddlers.

reply

I think everyone in the Capitol should be punished!

reply

Leave the janitors out of this.

reply

No. Not at all. If someone committed a murder, they deserve to suffer. If someone was innocent, it's bad that they suffered, but at least they could leave the prison alive.

reply

Yes. 100%. There are unspeakable crimes that go beyond just putting people in prison for the rest of their lives. Some of these monsters should not be breathing.

reply

It all depends on the crime committed. If someone murdered someone else then yes, I do think they should die. It's only fiar. Unless of course the killer wants to spend the rest of his life in jail.
