Barack Obama speaks about Boston Bombing

[Nymph]

Isn't the death penalty illegal in the U.S.? So the person who gave the death penalty would be convicted of murder and then get given the death penalty

Not in texas

This is truly awful. And i would like to mention something. People who want to hurt other people, Wont stop because you take away their guns. They will just resort to bombs, knifes, Ect. I can see more bombings happening if guns become outlawed.

People who try to resort to gun control should look at the stats, which prove gun control doesn't work.

So lets hope he gets caught in Texas

Not that I know of.
I think not, though.

I meant where you said "..i don't care if we've been friends for two or three years. i'm not going to be friends with someone like that." as if one of your really close friends were to make a joke like this. If a joke like that ruins a 2-3 year long friendship for you, then you're a baby.

I can see where you are getting at and the post was a bit too overly dramatic but I'm in no way going to look at the person the same way again for making a joke like that. It would show complete disrespect for what has happened.

Most countries being places like Switzerland with mandatory gun ownership?

Also places in the US with the most gun legislation have the highest crime rates.

Anyways this topic isn't about guns anyways.

It is in most places, seeing as it would go under cruel punishment, but i believe the death penalty is a state right

[Igloos]

No it's legal, but death sentences are rarely done here, it's ridiculous.
We jail people for 1-10 years for stealing a can of tomato soup, but can't give a person who caused this tragic event the death penalty? America's judicial system is so corrupt and pathetic.

Why don't you take the time to see how many capital cases were overturned after the fact?

Sorry if I was being harsh.

[Muslim]

right, because that's really what's important now

in times of crCIA we need unity, we don't need people pointing fingers at one another.  the rest of the nation has to be strong and support Boston

well said
