Off Topic Death penalty

That's one thing. Concurrent sentences are such bollocks. Do multiple crimes and get found guilty but serve the same amount of time.

Prison time should be longer for repeat offenders imo.

I would be in favour of it if things were guaranteed but humans are humans so i would be against it

 

Certainly seems to be the case in the US when you look at all the massacres - no point in stopping if you're either gonna be executed or would turn the gun on yourself. And now I'm waiting for someone to say "remind me - what city in America was Anders Brevik in when he shot all those kids?"

 

How do you increase a life sentence Bobby? Put them in cryogenic suspension and try them again?

In fairness, I kind of agree - just adds strength to the life means life argument. But West Windsor's right - there are certain murder cases where it may be justifiable to release the culprit at some point.

 

remind me - what city in America was Anders Brevikin when he shot all those kids?"

 

One with an Arctic coastline

 

I don't think anywhere (Western) has executed underage kids in a long time have they?

Out of curiosity why not women? To me sex or gender should not be a factor in sentencing.

If a man and woman commit the same crime with the same circumstances and the same motivations they should be punished equally.

If someone killed your parents or your children, would you be more forgiving, or blame them less, just because they had a vagina?

 

80 proof on the rocks with a twist of lime is fine for me

 

Not necessarily talking about life sentences such last what ten years? I just meant sentencing in general

But mainly raging about the concurrent sentencing. It's just a buzz word to make it seem like more punishment when it isn't at all

 

I agree... Although it's a little bit ironic reading that comment under an avatar that is a picture of Donald Trump.

 

Yeah I know Bobby and I agree - was just being facetious. Ten years is ****. I was on jury service and the stepdad battered a five year old boy to death with a pool cue and got life. Was out in ten years FFS.

 

Could always be supplemented with VAR, seeing what a blinding success that’s been

 

Sir Trump is above this level of conversation I feel

 

Is Stan universally despised?

 

It’s no surprise you didn’t see the humour in my comment or that Bluey and I get on well. Never mind chubby.

 

Didn’t you win your own **** off Hilary?

 

Apparently so.

God knows why.

 

It’s like watching an over eaters support group comfort each other.

 

Why has this turned into a stan thread?

 

Friday afternoon work boredom.
