    No of course not. I lack the comprehension of being sarcastic.

    QFT.

    I'd imagine the OP was aiming this thread at me, I may have been a little sarcastic after his pro death penalty arguments...:pac:

    Their methods are all wrong and procedures. There is no fear in the death penalty over there because it can be appealed and ur 20 or more years on death row. If you had 2 sorts of crime, mild and severe. mild crimes with a trial get life and severe get death within a week. you put the fear of death into criminals and you will never have a crime again
