Message | The threat of justice is a deterrent in and of itself. |

Message | But it obviously isn't if we actually have to execute people for serious crimes. AND at the same time we are guilty of killing another human, does the executioner get a death sentence after he has "flicked the switch"? |
Date | 04:21:57, September 06, 2008 CET | From | Normand Pluralist Party | To | Debating the DSP.263.2631 |
Message | Oh, it may not be ENOUGH of a deterrent. But it's definitely a deterrent. If we need to, we can orchestrate executions like Ramn Sampedro did, so no one will be legally to blame. Not that I think it's necessary. Secondly, by having an army of any sort, we are guilty of having other human beings killed. It's significantly better than the alternative. |
