lol Try having 5 people yelling at you at the same time to burn in "hell". I was being calm and open-minded when explaining my point of view, they were blatant and stupid.

ask them if they've read the bible. chances are they haven't. the bible doesn't disprove evolution, unless you're a dumbass who can't read for himself. a lot of it was lost in translation anyway.

btw the death penalty is great when used properly. i think we should have public executions, actually.

I disagree Sarras, public execution is the perishing of people's fear right in front of them just so they can sleep better. Plus, there have been many cases where people were proven innocent too late, after they were executed. I say that since we aren't really going to get rid of the death penalty any time soon, we should harvest the organs of death row inmates so that we actually save some lives.

What made my day:

In German Class....
(after watching a video about food)
Teacher: And what food do you guys want to eat?
Friend: The weißwurst and sh**.....oh my god.

Whole class bursts into laughing!

Also made my day in same class:
My other friend apparently asked my teacher a question, I didn't hear it though...
Teacher: Well, which of the two do you like?
Class is silent....
Other friend: THAT'S NOT AN ANSWER!

Sigh I love my friends :P

you got that from a youtube video, didn't you?  X-/

the purpose of public execution is to warn would-be criminals. and it worked pretty well. the death penalty is a little screwed up, and i think it should really be reserved for heinous and obvious crimes that show you're no longer fit to live among society, like mass murder or treason.

we're never going to ever harvest organs from death row, at least not western countries. it'll become an illegal trade and probably end up killing innocent inmates who never got fair trial. even if they had an option, you could argue they're agreeing under duress, which is also illegal. and who knows how messed up the organs of death row inmates could be?

that be risky business geoni

Let it be known that Sarras Volcae is an intelligent girl who knows what she's talking about where it counts.

I think we should be harvesting the organs of death row inmates <---Yes, I saw this on a youtube vid and thought it was a great idea. If we could save a bunch of lives because of people who were too dangerous to live had healthy organs, then I say we keep the death penalty around. It does bother me that some people are innocent in death row, and get executed, but that would cause the justice system to look bad, and then there will be more caution in people who work to investigate things. Other than those rare cases, these people did kill, and there is no changing anytime soon to the death penalty.

Your opinion on public execution doesn't make sense. People kill because it is an uncontrollable urge that takes over their minds. There are hardly any would-be killers, there are mostly people who kill and don't realize what they are doing. People only want public execution because it gives the victims happiness to see somebody die, just the way it gave that person being publicly executed happiness. It's simply primal.

When it comes to the organs being healthy, they've banned cigarettes and alcohol, along with any other drug, and their food is the essentials, so they should have healthy organs. Like any organ donation outside of a family, it needs to be carefully done, and checked throughly.   

by the way, why would somebody be publicly executed for treason? It's not that serious.

Funny how people feel like its acceptable to kill someone as long as they have a reason to justify it.

Whats a reason ? Its a train of thought  - usually consisting of man made rules.

Why did that criminal kill someone ?
Probably had something to do with his or her train of thought   ::|

So now a socially unacceptable train of thought makes killing someone a bad thing,
And a socially acceptable train of thought makes killing someone a good thing ( or neutral at least ).

Hrm .. not sure I agree with this. I dont think the thought justifies the action *when there is an alternative to killing*.

Personally Im against killing people. In this day and age we can isolate a dangerous person from society without resorting to violence. I don't think that stooping to their level and becoming like them is the right answer. War and situations where there is no alternative is a different ball of wax.

Strange what one gets to read here...

especially, regarding that "Weißwurst" comment up there...
are there also courses/teachers that are called "german" in the states that do talk about GERMANY and not about BAVARIA?

(For those who do not know that germany has provinces as well... well...
Bavaria is - at least for the rest of the germans - treated similar like the rest of the US treat Texas (and its inhabitants). No offense here, but actually, there are so many parallels... When I was dealing with americans who came to Germany (Essen Game Fair) for their first time, I really encountered dialogues like this:
"Why isn't anyone wearing Lederhosen?"
"Well, Rick, why aren't you wearing a cowboy hat? Are you from Texas?"
"No, I am from Arizona..."
"See? And this is not Bavaria...")

What I mean is that since that stupid death penalty is not even close to being abolished, why just kill them and waste a perfectly good body? So many lives can be saved [people who wait to their death to receive an organ, never getting one].

I'm against the death penalty, but since I've looked into is so thoroughly, I've realized it's not going to go away anytime soon. I don't really think the punishment should fit the crime, because two wrongs don't make a right. I also think that death row inmates should not be in solitary confinement for ten to twenty years, because that is hellish torture. I think that if the public vote doesn't at least want the death penalty to go away, then why won't they use their brains and try to have that alternative way, saving lives.

All that I'm trying to say to the people that are for the death penalty is this: If you don't want to change things that you do, at least reform them so that it's not so horrendous.

i know this is a "sticky topic" that boils down to personal views, so I'll stop here.

All people must be held responsible for their actions.

If a man is about to murder another man he should know that if he commits that crime, he will die.

If a man rapes a woman he should know that he will never see daylight outside of the confines of a prison courtyard.

Deterrence is important in the justice system.

Punishing the guilty does not mean taking away their rights - it means they are accountable for their crimes and must be punished.

Sorry?

Uncontrollable?

This action cannot be controlled?

No, it is a choice. A man does not kill because he was forced to by this "urge". He killed because he chose to kill.


Choice is very important - a man chooses to murder. For his choice there are consequences.

Testing, harvesting, labs, experiments. Prison inmates are easy targets for this. After all, what line is there to cross?

On the contrary, yours makes little good sense.
