Even mass murdering an entire theater full of people? There are some things in this world that should just get you automatic termination, because it takes a really screwed up person to methodically kill that many people.


It goes from being justice to vengeance when we cross to the point of executing someone.


You seem to be mistaking this for a bad thing.

I think the very idea of retributive punishment is without foundation and harmful.

Even when the criminal can only cause pain and misery to others? What if they killed your entire family as they made you watch? What if they stewed children, cooking them alive? What if they killed millions of people by causing a nuclear war?

There are a lot of what ifs, but sometimes you have to draw the line that should not be stepped across. Vengeance or Justice, you have to face what you've done, what they've done.

None. Killing, in any form, is always wrong.

Meh, dead people don't learn anything. At least give them a bit of moral redemption in prison. Not to mention that death penalty is expensive.

Be careful when you fight the monsters, lest you become one.

If we kill murderers, we become the murderers ourselves.

Objectively I would say that no crime warrants death, and would recommend life imprisonment with no chance of parole.

However, realistically I would say: harming (depending on the degree of course) or molesting a child and murder in the first degree.

There are some places that you can lock a guy up in and they'll never come out again.

Soviets had 'em, and I betcha the US had 'em during the Cold War as well.

Murder: The unlawful premeditated killing of one human being by another.

If it's lawful, it's not murder.

If you kill someone in cold premeditated blood or if you molest kids you deserve to die.

Then and only then.

And life in prison is a greater punishment. If you really want to torture a person, deny them human contact for the rest of their lives, lock them up in a cell with no windows, and play Barney music non-stop.

They'll be begging for mercy by the end of the week.

An insane person is not responsible however, they are victims of their own birth and must be treated. Certainly never released back into society for fear of killing another, but destroying them is needlessly cruel and wasteful.

I can believe I'm actually initiating a debate to be honest.

So the correct thing to do is just let them rot, let their hatred or twisted minds fester even worse thoughts than before? No, it isn't becoming a murderer when you're removing a threat that can only cause detriment.

Dictionaries are written by governments.

Murder is the premeditated killing of anyone. Lawful or not is irrelevant.

That's odd how you're arguing semantics over murder. Everyone can agree that murder is bad.
