I have losted faith in the Justice system here in
Michigan. Which is the reason why I am registered
to carry a 9mm and a 38short special. I believe
in the second admendment of the Constitution of
the United States (The Rights To Bare Arms).
However in this Georgia case..the case is so old
until I am willing to bet that some of the evidence
is un readible. Most of the false witnesses is die,
and according to the court of law A MAN IS INNOCENT
UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY. Meaning they can't execute
the man without proof.
If a case have established Physicial proof, and the
person is guilty...juice em. | But there is evidence to support the idea that capitol punishment is no deterrent at all. Most killers do not think of the consequences. Us normal people do not kill out of fear of getting caught or out of moral grounds. The actual punishment is fairly irrelevant.
Canada has no death penalty and a lower rate of murder. This flies in the face of the 'death as a deterrent' argument. |
