Not disturbing at all.

1973 - Operation Wrath of God -

Several hours before each assassination, each target's family received flowers with a condolence card reading: "A reminder we do not forget or forgive."

"They will look over their shoulders every day and night of their lives. They will run. They will hide. But we are coming. These deaths will be avenged and they will pay with their blood."

Golda Meir, Prime Minister

What a sick, sick society.

Angry

Bang Bang Bang Bang

A civilised nation does not use premeditated state-sanctioned killing as a punishment.

No matter how horrendous the crime or who the criminal is.

It's not a debate about individuals or particular crimes.

Nonsense.

A state does have every right to avenge the killings of its people and to correct the scores.

A nation state built on perpetual hate and vengeance is a very sick and disturbing society.

Using phrases like "correct the scores" when talking about human life clearly demonstrates the disturbing dehumanising influence of your extremely primitive, draconian society. Check that poo at the door when you enter this country: it's not welcome here.

Very, very sick.

(* I pegged you as a troll when I first saw your posts, and my mind hasn't changed on the matter. No sane person could have the attutude that you display in this forum, thus it is quite clear you're just trying to stir up trouble. However, I enjoy addressing your ridiculous posts because you're not that good at trolling. You make little slips now and then. Carry on though.)

Hate is not a prerequisite to carry out an execution, in fact, it's better if it is not involved at all.

Granted the softer member of our society who embrace a the group hug philosophy dealing with scumbags need to explain everything in extreme emotional terms, but it is nothing more that a legal process.

Now run off grab a tissue and wipe away those crocodile tears, little buckaroo.

Once again, you've got it wrong (seriously, do you ever get anything right?).

I was talking about Avram's shithole of a country, in general. It wasn't a comment on capital punishment per se.

Try to keep up.

Hi BigOl,
would you like the honor of pulling the pin on the gallows?

This is where your stupidity really shines through.

In your little mind there are two options: capital punishment, or group hugs. Your narrow-minded ignorance can not even imagine that there may be any alternatives in between.

Don't be too hard on yourself though: many advocates for state-sanctioned killing fall into the same trap.

As for myself, I don't need any tissues: I'm not shedding a tear over any "scumbag".

I'm opposed to premeditated state-sanctioned killing as a punishment. I'm not opposed to punishing criminals. See if you can spot the difference. Wink

I am not a troll thank you. But can "peg" me however you like.

I am fine with your views.

I am a visitor and a very happyn one to be here one too.

My society as you call it is not sick. We have actually a peaceful country. The only violence etc you see on the tv is in very small areas in disputed zones.

I grew up in a city which saw no violence and is as peaceful as any.

I don't want our society spending 40 years punishing some criminal -
just hang them & hang them high with a sign around their neck saying what they've done:

murderer
rapist
thief
pedophile
terrorist
