I am absolutely against the death penalty, we shouldn't kill anything in my opinion.

I'm waiting for someone who's wife and/or children have been brutally raped, tortured and murdered to come on and say they don't believe in the death penalty.

I for 1 am totally for the death penalty. Brutal murders and violent rapists and child abusers should be executed or at the very least castrated in the case of the latter 2.
Stick em in a cell for 30 years and it costs the state a fortune.
Why should the likes of Ian Huntley be allowed to stay alive??
I understand what you are saying, but I don't think we should consider 'running costs' when it comes to life and death. I think when someone has adequately displayed that he has no consideration between life and death, then you should do what is best for society as a whole, and thats not spending £30k a year to give some scumbag a place to live. |

I'm sure people in that frame of mind would do (or vote for) many things they wouldn't normally. |

Once again, I understand what you are saying completely. However, when it comes to human life, I don't think any being on this planet has the right to play God and make a decision regarding whether someone's life will continue or not. I think it is that belief which will mean I go around in circles debating it with anyone, but I genuinely respect and follow your view. |

Well I think Iraq is definitely a better place to live now.
The new government have their own torture chambers and death squads fully operational and once we finish training up the army and police we will be able to withdraw and leave em to it.
They also know if they don't do what the yanks tell em they will be hanged.

I'm not going to say much on the subject but in my opinion, he deserved to die. Maybe spending life in a torture chamber would have been more appropriate. I'm glad that such an evil man has gone to hell.
What does it take for someone to deserve to die? I am not god, as such i cannot claim if someone deserves to die. Especially after such a poor trial, were you all aware that the defence were not allowed to cross examine witnesses!!!!! I'm waiting for someone who's wife and/or children have been brutally raped, tortured and murdered to come on and say they don't believe in the death penalty.
Good thing we have Judges then! The victims are not supposed to decide on the sentence. |

If Saddam deserves to die, what punishment is due to those that approved selling chemical weapons to him for up to 2 years after Halabja was gassed. A raise and a knighthood?

I may disagree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to mis-attribute this quote to Voltaire.

For me the death penalty should never have been abolished. It winds me up to no end knowing that I am paying taxes to home and feed some of these "people".
As for Saddam, good riddance.
