This of course is the same United Nations who routinely appoints murderers like Idi Amin to the Human Rights Council. We need to defund them and put that money towards useful ventures.
Because the U.S government has never supported any murderers, right?
You supported and funded Sadaam Hussein when he was gassing Kurds. You also supported and funded the Latin American death squads in the 1980's when they were raping and murdering tens of thousands of people.
But the U.N deserves your condemnation? :roll:
i guess sometimes the truth hurts. i acknowledge the moral failures of my country, and hope that they are never repeated.. unfortunately a lot of americans look the other way and hide from it.
let us not forget how we bankrolled osama bin laden and the mujahadeen while they were fighting the russians in afghanistan in the 80's.
and what about that arms for hostages deal with iran?

What purpose do they serve again? Besides spreading cholera in third world countries?

Nobody apologizes for America better than Gimme.... except Barack.
Why do you people insist upon protecting bloodthirsty murderers by shielding them with my tax dollars?
We can disagree on this all day, but please I would hope you can look at this without blinders. Many of us against the death penalty do not have the goal of shielding/protecting, or wasting money on convicted murderers and rapists.. We just realize that its not a deterrent and feel that its for revenge and is barbaric. And I thought you would know better -- that the DP actually wastes A LOT more of your tax dollars than life in prison.
In addition, the Nader quote that Byrnzie posted was PERFECT. You cannot execute ONE innocent person and claim the system works. ITS FLAWED.

Revenge and justice are two very distinct, very separate things.
Let's agree to disagree Johnny. I like you, I don't want to fight you.

i have asked you to stop calling me out in your posts 3 times now. stop derailing the thread to have a go at people.
are you going to answer the questions in my post? will you AT LEAST acknowledge that it happened? prove it wrong if you can, but these are well established facts.

Closed while people receive warnings and/or bannings for personal attacks and personal comments about each other instead of debating the topic. If it can be cleaned up in a short time, it may be reopened. Things are busy right now so it may not.

The death penalty is revenge, pure and simple. The mother of this girl wanted revenge.
Now answer my earlier question:
You people claim to be Christians. Do you think Jesus would support the death penalty?
"This is premeditated, carefully thought out ceremonial killing."

You want me soo bad.....
Justice is a Christian principle. The Bible approached the issue less provocatively than I did just now, but live by the sword and die by the sword.

If you are the guy in the middle of the picture - then yes!
If you are either of the apes on the sides, then... I'll pass.
