    To be fair to opening post, IF it was Obvious Murderers they SHOULD be given a 'Lethal injection'

    I`d vote yes. Life imprisonment/extremly long sentences is pretty much torture so I don`t find that at all forgiving in regards to miscarriage of justice or rehabilitation of criminals. Vengance must be out of the picture, leaving it as merely a regulating force. Would probably be sensible to demand stronger evidence for death penalty than the regular beyond reasonable doubt.

    thats a very valid point that mate.


    F#ck it! Just kill the f#cker anyway!

    If you limit the the question of guilt to merely guilty or not guilty, you`re left with a pretty good 50% chance of getting it right.

    Not good odds if it's you brother up for a charge.......and he happens to be black...


    Unfortunately some truth in that statement..... Which is what I think was the case with the Troy Davis situation in Georgia....

    I don't know what I'm more surprised about. Finding out I have a brother or finding out he's black.
