The death penalty is never right

In the wake of the execution of the Bali Bombers, Amnesty International is calling on the Indonesian Government to permanently abolish the death penalty. Atrocities such as the 2002 Bali Bombings must be addressed, but not by continuing the cycle of violence through state-sanctioned killings, says Amnesty International's Anti-Death Penalty Campaign Coordinator, Katie Wood.

Right , wrong? Too late for these murderous scumbags. Personally I see no problem with putting these types of people to death. Pedophiles, Habitual sex offenders, murderers, Get rid of them, No stuffing around. Found Guilty, shoot em dead! That send's a clear message to others who may wish to follow in their footsteps!

I suspect amnesty would have appealed for lenient sentences for the nazis who were executed after the Nuremberg trials. Maybe give them a bit of community service maybe.

@markox1962 well this xample u give is the very paradox of the whole death sentence debate. Many of these nazis were spared the death penalty so we have according 2 the death penalty advocates innocent nazis?

@ZackAttack261 that's irrelevant

[ZackAttack261]

@Endrance88 you don't get it mass killers don't give a fuck what they did ... their probably proud of it

[Endrance88]

@ZackAttack261 BUT HE'S GETTING OFF EASY BY KILLING HIM! YOU SHOULD TORMENT HIM FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE! OR AT LEAST ISSUE CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE!

seriously, killing is a vicious cycle, everybody wants to do it to one another and to another if he/she does it to another and it's gotta stop, MAKE KILLERS BE AFRAID OF THE CONSEQUENCES! in fact, i have a pretty good idea to deal with murderers

[ZackAttack261]

@Endrance88 BECAUSE HE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THOUSANDS OF DEATHS

try telling that to the family that were gassed and the children that became mentally retarded because of him.

pieces of shit like that deserve to DIE its just. it is unjust for some one to get away with murder and not suffer the proper consistences.

[Endrance88]

@ZackAttack261 and why not? why not be the bigger person and say "hey, we don't kill people for doing wrong, nor for doing good, we imprison them and let them think about what they did for the rest of their lives"

[Endrance88]

murderous scumbags deserve to rot away in jail for the rest of their life with severe negative treatment towards them

death penalty is just to easy and it just continues the cycle of genocide
