If a very poor person/scumbag gets killed should it be made legal?

    My uncle worked in South Africa during the 80s, and whenever a person of high stature was killed it was looked into heavily. But if a very poor person was killed, there was no investigation the vast majority of the time.

    Do you think that should be implemented here? It would be nice to see scum killers not getting a trial IMO.

    Edited.

    How can you give a dead person a trial?

    You're crazy.

    ???

    So correct me if I'm taking you up wrong but essentially you want to legalize killing poor people - i.e. No criminal investigation into their deaths.

    Why stop there? Why not have open season on Pikeys once a year too. :rolleyes:

    I know the OP is famous for starting retarded posts but this one has to be a new low..

    I've read over it a few times and still can't figure out what the question is, and it's not just the fact that he has the grammatical capabilities of a cabbage that has been boiled for too long...

    It was the way in South Africa, there is a precedence.

    I can guarantee the majority of High Society in South Africa in the 80's were white. Quite easy to determine why the police only investigated these.

    How about open season on Cork people too?

    Hardly worth investigating their deaths. :cool:

    So was apartheid, do you think that's a good idea as well?

    Yeah, removing any chance of prosecution is sure to wipe out violence...

    Where is there a precedence for this? There is worse than what I am proposing, Idi Amin killed hundreds of thousands of his own citizens.

    So if South Africa has done it, it must be good?

    Protip: If you're looking for an example of a country to hold up as a civil/criminal ideal, stay away from the South Africa. So many things wrong with that country, I don't know where to start.

    What exactly should be made legal?

    So if you have a young girl, born into poverty is killed in a car crash, you are asking if her death should be legal?

    Why would it not be illegal?

    Mods, can I be banned for calling somebody a retard? Just a question, not a statement of intent.

    Yeah, and that place was a shining example of how to run a country. There was another precedence in South Africa prior to the 90s - apartheid. Would that be okay here too?

    I am talking about homicide/murder. If she died in an accident, she died in an accident.

    Who sets the border between poor-rich and scumbag-not scumbag?

    I'm originally from flats, don't drive 09 BMW, I drink cheap alcohol and sometimes smoke more or less legal substances and I greatly enjoy it - am I a scumbag so?

    What about the foreigners, could they be shot "as they are" as a form of relax for stressed by the credit crunch rich Irish families?
