Seriously, I realize she's female and a liberal like you but there are plenty of other things I could have typed that would have been offensive.

Gosh, Marc, then I guess I should thank you for being so pleasant and polite.

[Marcmedic]

No problem, I'm glad we worked this out!!!

I already do some things on the side towards that goal.
PS How'd you get to meet Kirk Bloodworth? You can PM me if you don't want to discuss it here.

I might not believe in the death penalty but yes, if it were my family perhaps I might change my mind.

You want to know what annoyed the hell out of me. This complete John Kerry flip/flop posted not even 3 hours apart. How can you be a "die hard anti-death penalty person", but then have to re-think your stance on it if something happened to your family. If you feel that strongly that the death penalty is wrong, then it shouldn't matter if something happens to a friend/family member....your stance should remain unchanged. How can you say that a criminal shouldn't get the death penalty for killing someone's loved one, but then maybe you'd be all for it if it's someone you cared about?

I'm not being a jerk here but wouldn't this be right?

[Marcmedic]

Works for me! And that wasn't even close to "snapped".

Enough with the personal attacks already. I'm overly sensitive today. I think I may have installed my maxi-pad adhesive side up.

My point was that no one knows what we're capable of. I said I might, I said perhaps. I didn't say I would. I was basically saying that I haven't been in that situation, thank God so how can I say for sure? I find it amusing that you had nothing to say in this thread until you attacked me, this was also after I posted that I was a girl. Did you attack me because you found out I was a girl and thought it'd be easier? That's how it looks to me. Do you have a problem with girls, Marc? Did your mom not hug you enough? If so, then I'm sorry for you. Enjoy Christmas if you celebrate it; I know I will.

[Marcmedic]

Knew you were a girl when you joined the forum and told everyone. Hopefully you'll be reprimanded for your personal attacks. Merry Christmas to you too!

I never attacked you personally until you went off. Anyway, I'm done for now. Heading over to my mom's for Christmas dinner and if you think I'm a pain, wait'll you see said mom when we're late for Christmas dinner. Enjoy your day. In fact, I declare a truce for Christmas. I can be the better person.

[Marcmedic]

Works for me. When does this truce expire???

[KenP]

I'm against the death penalty, too. I also believe we should not incarcerate criminals for life, because that's also a death penalty.

We treat criminals horrendously and I find it reprehensible. Just because someone kills an entire family of four, doesn't mean there's no good in the convict and that he's not a wholesome person inside. We have a civic duty to find the good, find the sweetness in everyone.

We, as a caring and responsible society, should educate the criminals by doing away with the current penal system and it's institutions and replace them with education centers geared toward rehabilitation.

In doing this, the convicted criminals would not have to live a life behind bars, but would be made into productive members of society, living, shopping, and working in our neighborhoods, baby sitting our children and walking our pets.

Yes, that's what I want. Convicted serial rapists helping my wife with her groceries. Convicted pedophiles working working the ice cream truck. Convicted murderers working at toy stores. Convicted thieves working for me running a cash register.

With proper education and therapy we can, and must do this for the good of society, our children's futures, and the futures of thier children.

For a minute I thought you were serious!

[RubHer Yellow Ducky]

YOU want the answer...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Put convicted criminals in an induced COMA for their entire sentence...

they become much more manageable, they don't learn other ways to do crime from the other criminals,

AND

Its CHEAPER to maintain them...

No more question of a killing them... those that rape, child molest, committ murder, treason etc just put them into a COMA for 150 years...

If you want all the details just ask...

Just because I don't believe in one thing, doesn't mean it's a free for all. I don't believe that pedophiles can be rehabilitated. So why would I want them set free? You all can make fun all you want but I hardly think you know my entire value system or viewpoints just from a few threads of me saying I (a) don't believe in racism and prejudice and (b) don't support the death penalty. So go ahead, have your fun.
PS Marc, that truce is over whenever you want it to. I'd rather be civil but if that's not what you want then fine, have at it.

It's so much easier to polarize people into black/white, good/evil. That way we can dehumanize them and allow ourselves to be as evil as they are. That's so much easier than thinking and seeing realities of situations. How Christ-like.

Merry Christmas!

Are you really going to bring religion into this. What exactly does the good book say about punishment????

Did you not see the smiley face after the comment?
It's the internet...lighten up! Or apparently CP will have that nimrod Gore turn it off and I'll have nothing to do while at work....I'd have to resort to pissing off my co-workers.
