There are many methods that humans have used to end each others lives and lethal injection is one of the more humane. The validity of a society authorising and asking one human to kill another is what I believe the plinth should be used for. Let me ask you this, in war if a solider surrenders do we shot them?Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00594481483171507584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-1997048235407243172009-09-12T09:28:32.997+01:002009-09-12T09:28:32.997+01:00In that case I apologize for seming to be WAAYYY o...In that case I apologize for seming to be WAAYYY off topic.<br /><br />Please feel free to edit it out if you wish.Von Spreuth.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-22208361755666699332009-09-12T06:50:35.296+01:002009-09-12T06:50:35.296+01:00"Can any one tell me how my post (the first h...<i>"Can any one tell me how my post (the first here) ended up on THIS thread, and not the one I posted it on about a scum bag "journallist" killing a Para????"</i> <br /><br />Did you have multiple windows open?

I’m sure this woman is uniquely concerned with herself right now. He has and does seem incapable of concentrating on issues of individual that affect the people he is responsible to or issue of the country for more than five minutes before he changes his mind. And then sometimes back again.

The later being a matter solely for the Americans as the crime was committed, tried and decided on their soil.<br />I for one hope she is not executed regardless of her guilt or innocence. She has been prevented from committing another crime. If she is guilty she may never be able to be part of any free society without posing a threat to it but this is no reason to end her life. The question should be while we can prevent someone from committing further crimes what good can they do if any? After all, nothing will bring the victim in this case back to life.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00594481483171507584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-18498301426459180502009-09-11T08:45:42.492+01:002009-09-11T08:45:42.492+01:00Mother fucking scum bag journalist.
