Opinions - Should we destroy the last bit of the smallpox disease?

Depends on the sentence. If the person has done things that are FUBAR, kill them. People like that really don't deserve to live.

Good thing I don't know what a flubar is.

Not to mention that most killers are psychologically disturbed and mentally ill, so in reality, you're torturing someone who doesn't actually comprehend the value of a life.

Yeah, lets just start resorting to shooting all of them instead of making an effort to rehabilitate them like decent loving human beings.

Killing someone costs a lot less money, especially when for someone that messed up, rehabilitation may not work.

Actually, a death sentence costs more than life imprisonment.

Psychiatric care and therapy can help, there are hundreds of methods, and even more experimental methods. The fact that it "may not work" is irrelevant. You can't just start executing mentally damaged people the same way you can't beat the stuff out of a downs child because he spilled orange juice or killed the dog. Most serial killers don't fully grasp the concept of the value of life, or are simply too mentally disturbed to care (i.e. "God told me to do it").

[Mysteroo]

wow, some people are really cruel. D:  My uncle was in jail for a year or two, he deserved to be there. But I still like him, and I like being with him. He's out now, and is much better behaved than before. But according to some of these votes right now, I wouldn't even have an uncle!

If a guy kills seven people, we can't kill him seven times, but we can cause him pain to make up for the loss of those live

Also, Imo doesn't that just make you as bad as him? If you try to "make up for those killings" then your just doing as bad a thing as he did.

Bullets don't cost that much.
That, and a place to burn the body.

this isn't a concentration camp, everyone gets a grave

[DrenDran]

Yes, but we were talking about ways to save money.

[Mysteroo]

Yes, but we were talking about ways to save money.

I thought we were talking about whether it's right to murder murderers?

[otto-san]

Prisoners need to be disciplined. They are. It's really up to the person who runs the jail.


If that person is a good person to run the place, then the prisoners will like them and be better behaved and generally happier.

The prisoners should have to work to get television (ie the the televisions are powered by bikelike generators).

their food shouldn't be bad just because they did bad things.

they should get therapy.

they should get pretty good healthcare.

they shouldn't be in cells with too many people. three at the most, mixing and matching so that if two get in some fight, the other can maybe stop them or something.

Heck, you can even use prisoners to test medicines and such, that'd be a neat idea.

[Mysteroo]

I agree for the most part. But when you say- test medicines. I wouldn't agree with that just because it could be deadly, or just hurt the prisoner. And that seems a bit like treating them like lab-rats.

[rockslide26]

Prisons should not be happy fun time daycare, people deserve to be in there

We're not national socialists you forget.

That isn't the point, that was supplementary information.

If they volunteer, then it's fine.

However, don't get me wrong: I'd much prefer executions be carried out by gunshot. It's a painless, instant death, the kind I'd want if I was in their position.

[Makingblah]

Yeah, have you ever spoken and lived with someone who actually suffers from some seriously mental illnesses? Probably not.
I have. I know what I'm talking about. forget you with your "everyone needs a chance". Crazy people don't understand chances, and don't know how to use them. So unless you know purely from experience and not theory about what you're on about, don't bother loving talking to me.
