@fmunkmoc I think you should understand what Racism,cuz black ppl have no power to be racist. I think ur looking for prejudice!!

[FmunkMOC]

@MrKingYork did you look that up before you said it? rac·ism /ˈreɪsɪzəm/ Show Spelled[rey-siz-uhm] Show IPA

noun

1.

a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others.

@MrKingYork i think you are looking up discrimination. This is the issue...people just take what they "think" to be true and go with it. Racism has nothing to do with power. Discrimination is based on power and the ability to limit someone else. When you ask someone what a word means they often say "it means such and such...to me". Racism has an actual meaning. I didn't create that meaning. I didn't make it up. It's not based on my feelings. It's in several dictionaries.

@ased215er It was 3 years ago and 3 of the 5 members of that board were different. but... that still begs the question...if i kill someone and say i'm sorry do i avoid the chair?

# 1, racism needs to end. In this day and age, people need to get over it and just be happy for who they are, who their neighbors are. There are more pressing issues in the world then what color skin you have. Grow up and take responsibility for yourself. # 2, The death penalty, an eye for an eye, leaves everyone blind. But you kill my mom, my sisters. I have no problems being blind, your dead. I say bring back capital punishment, public flogging, and arm everyone. Not just the criminals.

[NickRamone0]

Right on!!!!

[YoungBlaze777]

We kill people, who kill people, to show people, that killing people is wrong.

[Hoschi0913]

i dont care what color your skin is,if someone murders/kills however you wanna call it,someone else and it is proven without a shadow of a doubt,due to eyewitness / DNA etc ,you should face the same consequence that your action had upon the person you killed,drunk or mental or whatever is no excuse

[splittine63]

If someone killed my mom. I would kill them. Easy for that. There is punishment for sin.

@XboobtubeX Pat quinn governor of illinois "It is impossible to create a perfect system, one that is free of all mistakes... To have a consistent, perfect death penalty system, I have concluded, after looking at everything I’ve been given, that that’s impossible in our state. I think it’s the right and just thing to abolish the death penalty" you should also read about George Ryan a republican former death penalty advocate and now a fervent fighter for the abolition

[NicKingPapiChulo]

@XboobtubeX alright so your point is it doesnt matter if we kill a couple of innocent people as long as the guilty majority is exterminated? we're talking about a hundred cases.i mean you must have heard of the reasonable doubt. it is considered more reasonable to take a chance on letting a criminal outside then sending an innocent to prison for decades or the rest of their life the same precaution principal should be applied to the death penalty by abolishing it thats just common sense

[XboobtubeX]

@NicKingPapiChulo but what are the % of people that happens to? gotta go with the majority of %'s.

most people are guilty and live off the taxpayers for yrs. and yrs.
