True... Gary.

Now if you execute them in really nasty way then it would get rid of them and might put other people off committing crimes as well!

I personally liked my way of reducing Prison over crowding - Get all the rapists, child molesters, murders etc. put them in a valley and tell them that there is a bell five miles away and if they can ring the bell then they are free. At the same time tell the army you have found some new moving targets for them to practice on! Bullets are a lot cheaper and it gives them better practice than shooting at static paper targets!

Cool

Zzzzzzz.

I think people talking about the death penalty as a deterrent are forgetting one thing: if the people committing these crimes were rational, sane, normal people who'd consider that a deterrent, they probably wouldn't be doing the crime in the first place. Most people who do this kind of thing have some sort of mental abnormality, so a death threat wouldn't be a deterrent....

Research in the U.S. a few years ago into the efficacy of the deterrence of the death penalty for murder showed that it is not in fact a deterrent. But, as the research pointed out, most murders are not premeditated but a one-off flaring of temper with a weapon that happens to be (too) handy.

Angry

MATTel you can also get hanged for arson in a Navel Dockyard although so few about not much chance.

Mark(O) I think the knee jerk mob rule reaction is casued by a feeling of frustration and anger in the first place but more so a underlying sense that things are running out of control. More and more people have lost faith in the Police and the authorities, it seems that the rights of criminals are far more important than the victims, Police are being reduced to paper shufflers who must obey the strictest guidelines imaginable, they are under staffed over stretched and demoralised.

Violence is becoming so very common place and so many people are feeling vulnerable and afraid..to prove my point how many of us carry some kind of"tool" in our cars from torches to extendable batons and CS gas. 10 years ago that would have been very rare indeed.

Most of us are "barking" in anger hoping some one somewhere will recognise our concerns and toughen up on real crime. I think a long stint in prison with proper help from the care professionals and daily pray for forgiveness should be sufficient....or... skin him alive and roll him in salt every day for the rest of his miserable life...or get one of them there bacon slicers.................
