dead scumbags

If removing scum like this from society is not a proper use of a shotgun, I don't want to be right.

 

Good, because you aren't. In any case the vast majority of scum end up in politics, generally not being shot.

No matter how much people may wish otherwise, we do not have the right to decide whether someone lives or dies. That choice was not for this man to decide or anyone else.

Do you like having police around? Do you think we need police? Because if everyone followed this guy's train of logic, than we might as well buy everyone a shotgun and disband the police entirely.

 

Yeap......

 

We have the right to attempt to stop those in the act of committing a crime. In pretty much every state we have the right to stop them with force if they respond to our defense of law with aggression. In Texas we can blow them away if they are stealing our property and, in some cases, the property of others. An armed citizenry aids the police it does not replace them. The fact we have cars does not mean we should get rid of buses.

 

Armed citizens don't help cops. Don't get me wrong. I'm armed a lot of the time too. And if I see a robbery taking place say in a store, I might intervine if I feel someone is being threatend But you might get shot yourself or be in the way if police are present. Also (not in this case) after blowing them away I would hope you could prove they were stealing something. Third you better hope you kill the person becuse I can see them coming back and sueing you for one reason or another.

 

The family could sue, too. Loss of support or something like that.

 

Joe took two career criminals permanently off the streets. That helps society and the cops.Yes, it is a good idea to make sure they are dead.

 

There are only a few thousand politicians while just the criminals that were busted and are in prison number in millions, now let's consider most home invasions/robberies are never solved, and we start learning that the real scum are out there making us all victims through things like increased insurance costs.

Why not?

We let woman end life over 1.4 million times a year in America, yes 1.4 million abortions happened in America last year, but ya, these poor scumbags should have been allowed to get away and turn more people into victims.

The most a policeman can do is respond to people already being a victim, they cannot protect anyone. Only you can protect yourself or your society from those that want to harm you.


If there was more fear of getting killed for robbing homes, maybe a few would not take up the profession.

 

Joe Horn's lawyer was on O'Reilly. Here's a transcript of the interview:

Among the natural rights of the colonists are these: First a right to life, secondly to liberty, thirdly to property; together with the right to defend them in the best manner they can.
Author: Samuel Adams

 

And that relates how?

 

The reason it relates is because from our humble beginnings, we were designed to have certain rights, and one of those rights was to defend our lives, our liberty, and our property.

Most liberals now want to completely remove our right to defend our property. Most of them completely ignore the fact that only the criminal has the choice to conduct the criminal act, everyone else is reacting to that criminals decision.

 

I guess Texas might end up being in a league of its own some day.

Then Texas will have the only sanctioned executions in prison by court order and on the street supported by law.

On a serious note, I sure hope this isn't true. Here in Nebraska, a senator going out next year on term limits, has made it a life's work to abolish the death penalty. If we don't allow another form of execution soon he may have a chance. Currently Nebraska is the only state that still has the electric chair as it's only form of execution and pending the Supreme Court decision on lethal injection, Nebraska probably won't adopt another form until that is resolved.

 

I think thats why we have prison problems. You can only house so many people for long stretches and life sentences. Some of those people don't deserve the air they breath. Not to mention I think it's more humane to euthanize them.

 

I agree. It is more humane to destroy them than incarcerate them for 20 years. Not only tha, but it's unfair to force citizens to finance their time in jail. It costs millions. I would rather it was spent on housing, education and pensions etc. Not trash.

 

I think our prison problem is from our ridiculous mandatory minimum drug laws mostly. They need to let rapists and murderers out to make room for dopeheads who never committed any violent crimes. The war on drugs is an utter and complete failure. Not the greatest idea a president and his wife ever had to create more jobs.. Where's the sense in giving a person 20 years for smoking crack?

 

How can a US politician bring this about ? Is it possible to annul certain ammendments, or perhaps the whole constitution, and re-write the document?

I thought the constitution was for all time. We dont have one in the UK, which is exactly as politicians here want it to be. It gives them more scope to do as they wish. Thats how I see it.[/quote]

The issue of the death penalty is state by state. Some states have the death penalty as an option for sentence to a capital crime, others don't. The Constitution, to the best of my knowledge doesn't specifically address this issue.

The death penalty can be determined as "cruel and unusual punishment", by the Supreme Court and be outlawed in the entire country though.

To clear it up a bit. This is a Nebraska State Senator, not a US Senator. FYI.
