Capital Punishment

[classthe_king]

uhhh well I would tell you to watch the video of Sam Harris discussing it because that's what really sold me. I disagreed and argued vehemently against crashband that we did have free will before accepting defeat after watching that video.

I guess how I see it is that we do have the choice to do what we want but we don't decide what we want. Our brain creates thoughts and then we observe the thought and then act. Thinking is the limit of what we can do and we can't control our thoughts because that would…require thought. If that makes sense. Basically you have as much control over your thoughts as you have control over your heart beating or your body making white blood cells or your digestion system.

SWA, there is still a distinction with intent. Someone accidentally sitting on a gun should be punished differently than someone intentionally shooting someone.

[CrashBand]

But yes, it would definitely change the justice system.

Mexico has a serious problem on it's hands, Los Zetas make the Syrian Rebels and Taliban look like amateurs. The US & UK should send Special Forces there and wipe out the cartels.

I love how this is in the capital punishment thread hahahha.


But I think capital puntoshkent is alright, you kill someone, then you die. Seems fair to me

Nah man, American/British soldiers shouldn't die for Mexico's problems. The US should just do drone strikes on the fuckin cartels.

The cartels are bigger than Mexico's police force and are on the same level with the military in regards to weaponry also Mexico's government is corrupt as fuck and a lot of Cartel members walk free from all kinds of crimes. If the US wants to stop cocaine being flooded through it's borders everyday then they as you said just send in drone strikes at Cartel headquarters wipe everyone of them out.

I was going to go to Mexico last year but I seen videos of people being beheaded with a chainsaw, burnt alive in barrels, being chopped up with axes, cutting women into pieces and the murder rate is ridiculous so I thought fuck that and went to Florida instead.

It kind of goes by fast because of how interesting it is. It's not as bad as it seems.

I watched Sam Harris on Joe Rogan's podcast, which was like 3 hours and it flew by. He's very well spoken.

Big Pun believed in it, so everybody should!!! lol jks.

Child rapists deserve death imo.

This is all true man, it's disgusting. The US needs to get rid of these sons of bitches. The Cartels are definitely terrorists, and need to be dealt with.

Sadly they arent socialists nor have oil.

Child rapists deserve death imo.

No.
Does someone deserve death just because they were born different or just went crazy because of something that happened to them?
Do paraplegics deserve death too? And people with down's?

[sneakerheadshady]

If you murder someone or do something like rape kids and stuff, death is a fair punishment. Some things are unacceptable

[Minimii]

sadly world isnt black and white like that.
No one chooses to become "evil". You could be child rapist/murderer too if something had gone different in your life.

doesn't give you the right to rape children who cannot defend themselves and the impact it will have on them in later life. child rapists deserve death by firing squad.

no it doesnt give them the right.
But nothing gives anyone the right to kill someone especially when it's not necessary.
The state needs to be above revenge and rather focus on how to help these poor raping bastards.
Drugs, therapy, brain surgery whatever.
Or just lock them up until it's possible to change these people back to "normal". They're sick. Only in the head.
