I presume we've had death by bum-bum? If not, - death by bum-bum.

Yeah, because the revolving door system we have at the moment works so well :rolleyes:

While i wouldn't be for corporal/capital punishment, what I think we need is MINIMUM sentences and life should mean just that, LIFE.

But don't let a few little things like that get in the way of your torture fantasies. Gotta teach the sickos a lesson, eh?

A real money saver though.

I'm not a liberal by any means but I think capital punishment is just blood lust for the most part. Make sentences tougher and reintroduce hard labour.

Em corporal punishment is like what was used in kids in school for being naughty.
Capital punishment is the death penalty

I wouldn't like to see capital punishment reintroduced,although I would love to see a return of the stocks. I'd happily watch some scumbag endure a little public humiliation:)

Hanging, not because it's easy for the condemned, but because it is easy for the executioner. If you bring in death penalty for rape, what about the men who are falsely accused (rate stands at about 10% false accusation of rape in Ireland). You'd have to bring in death penalty for false rape / perjury too. I agree with death penalty though.

Why is your only concern with men who are falsely accused of rape? And what about unjust convictions* for other crimes?


*and I presume you mean convictions because no-one has ever been sentenced because of an accusation.

I'd just like to second the revolving door method suggested by an earlier poster.








I presume that involves wedging the condemned persons head in a revolving door and slamming it round. Sounds messy but effective.

Well that's what I get for trying to be clever.

It's too late for me to try the "not if you get the wrong guy get out of jail free card" isn't it?

So you're belittling my point and agreeing with it at the same time? Buh?

It really doesn't. There's been a few death row convicts convicted of murders committed after their sentencing.

Sir, I'd like to add to your revolving door suggestion.
How bout we make the condemned person carry a large revolving door with them , where ever they go ?.

Deep Heat around the rectal region followed by a swift and relentless Beef Injection.

anyone who deserves the death sentence should be
psychologically profiled to find their worst fear/way to die,
then implement that.
bonus points if it's ironic to their crime.

You want to rape convicts who have been lubed up with deep heat?

Well I gotta admit, this is a new one.

Only when they get the right person.

Which is not always the case.

Pump them full of helium until they float into the upper atmosphere.

While their extended family are made watch the whole thing.

And the baying mobs pointing at them and hurling abuse.

With a telephone vote on which member of the family is to be interviewed by Brian Ormond on how they feel.

With an ongoing thread here on how we feel about the whole thing.

Hey !!

We'll let a judge and jury of our peers define the term of punishment by Deep Heat and Beef Injection, Thank you very much.

Clandestine

Very malignant, but I'd have them:
Tied to a chair
Blindfolded
Ear muffs put on them
In a totally quiet, isolated room with padding
No human contact
Left to rot until they die

I probably wouldn't have this done to anyone. Hell, I have a hard enough time with empathy and feeling sorry for victims of criminals.

Cant say i agree with the death penalty - but have thought that ****er deserves to die plenty of times,

As i hope wont ever be the case in this country, as evidence has shown it does not stop crime and huge mistakes have and are being made.

But, some crimes really do have to be punished, and i mean not just loss of liberty, but make the person regret waking up, that the day will be a hard one.

Nothing cruel , nothing sadistic, just plain old hard work, every day of their sentence.
basic food, basic quarters, military type discipline,and most importantly education, the better they do educationally , then either some remission or slightly better conditions.

I am sure prison now is not easy, but from what i have been told and seen reported its not that bad either, so why make it easy is my question

we could do something like this :eek:

Cambodian Midget Fighting League squared off against African Lion
Tickets had been sold-out three weeks before the much anticipated fight, which took place in the city of Kâmpóng Chhnãng.

The fight was slated when an angry fan contested Yang Sihamoni, President of the CMFL, claiming that one lion could defeat his entire league of 42 fighters.

Sihamoni takes great pride in the league he helped create, as was conveyed in his recent advertising campaign for the CMFL that stated his midgets will "... take on anything; man, beast, or machine."

This campaign is believed to be what sparked the undisclosed fan to challenge the entire league to fight a lion; a challenge that Sihamoni readily accepted.

An African Lion (Panthera Leo) was shipped to centrally located Kâmpóng Chhnãng especially for the event, which took place last Saturday, April 30, 2005 in the city’s coliseum.

The Cambodian Government allowed the fight to take place, under the condition that they receive a 50% commission on each ticket sold, and that no cameras would be allowed in the arena.

The fight was called in only 12 minutes, after which 28 fighters were declared dead, while the other 14 suffered severe injuries including broken bones and lost limbs, rendering them unable to fight back.

Sihamoni was quoted before the fight stating that he felt since his fighters out-numbered the lion 42 to 1, that they “… could out-wit and out-muscle [it].”

Unfortunately, he was wrong.
