9 Dead in Shooting at Black Church in SC

Government sponsored killing. If they aren't dping it, who is? For arguments sake, as a compromise, the government decides it should not be associated with the DP. But it remains an acceptable form of punishment for only the worst crimes. Who takes it over? Is it contracted out? Do private businesses bid on who gets to do it? Should it be on the tax payers dime or the victims of the family, or the family of the person being executed?
Or the government continues to use the DP but revises the standards. Maybe they only allow the DP to be used when there is nl,shadshad of a doubt that the person convicted actually did the crime. To ensure the wrong people aren't executed. Would you prefer that ovee entry system?will myself to find a home, a home within myself

We (SC) didn't even give Susan Smith the death penalty for killing her own kids.I'm through with screaming0

That was before I moved down here. But remember hearing about it and thinking it was odd that she didn't get the DP. Not only did she get to live, but got pregnant from a guard in prison.tweedyfanjen said:We (SC) didn't even give Susan Smith the death penalty for killing her own kids.

I don't remember enough about the Smith case to comment but if she got pregnant in prison and a guard was the father then that's abuse, plain and simple. There is no way to excuse the guard's behaviour.Degeneratefk said:

The guard abused his position of authority without question. Let's not forget the other person in that event- just merrily humping away after killing her two children that had become inconvenient to her.oftenreading said:

Are we sure about that? I have no idea in this case, but it's not like rape in prison is unknown. Or manipulation.Thirty Bills Unpaid said:

I don't think there was any abuse going on by the guard. They had an ongoing relationship. I'm sure Smith was using the guard more than the guard was using Smith. Everything was consensual from what I remembered.oftenreading said:

I think it's a pretty safe assumption. The fact that she murdered her children to bed another man makes me think she's far from a poor, little, abused waif that was completely taken advantage of by some goofball prison guard (not saying you said this... this qualifying statement is for Soul).oftenreading said:

Why... the f**k... would you want to have sex with a monster such as her? F**king idiot."My brain's a good brain!"0 -

Maybe she agreed, but the power differential between a prison guard and an inmate is such that it's never going to be a consensual relationship. You can't have a consensual relationship with someone who holds power over pretty much every aspect of your life.Degeneratefk said:

Either way... who cares? She's hardly a victim. Hearing of her humping in prison is very distasteful news."My brain's a good brain!"0 -
Doesn't matter if she was willing. Doesn't matter any more than if it was a doctor with a "willing"patient, or a teacher with a "wiling" student. The power differential is too great.my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf0

Read from my post whatever you wish. You're going to do that anyway. But maybe first consider whether that would be your opinion in another case of a woman getting pregnant while incarcerated.Thirty Bills Unpaid said:

Key term: incarcerated. Hardly a school aged child or trusting patient which you tried to compare the child killer to.oftenreading said:

I agreed with you that the guard was completely out of line, but I'd be reaching if I agreed that Smith was placed in a position where she was manipulated by circumstances into compliance."My brain's a good brain!"0 -
I see your point but disagree. I don't remember the details and im too lazy to look it up. Are you suggesting that Smith couldn't say no? If anything, Smith had the control in the relagionship. She had nothing to lose. She's spending her life in prison. As opposed to the guard who had everything to lose. And eventually did.oftenreading said:

Where is your cut off as far as the power balance goes? Is a first line supervisor over a employee to big of a power difference? What about a captain in the army with a private? Any position of power over a lover is too much?will myself to find a home, a home within myself

Sure, I could elaborate. I could post links about female inmates being raped, being watched showering or dressing, being denied toilet paper or sanitary products or put in solitary confinement if they refuse or attempt to report such actions on the parts of the guards. But it's a wasted exercise because to many of you guys on here these women are manipulative monsters who should have been killed anyway and are automatically at fault, so who cares what happens to them?Degeneratefk said:
