ORIGINAL: juliaoceania The cost of executing a criminal v housing them for life http://www.deathpenalty.org/article.php?id=42 The average cost of a box of (100) 22 caliber bullets is about $25. Sounds a bit more cost effective to me. *chuckles* Sorry, had to. Stay safe, play nice & share your toys w/ others... Bella Well, if you are willing to forgo your rights to a trial by your peers, etc, if you are ever accused of a crime, then you can save the taxpayers and just execute yourself pretrial. Since you are wanting to save the taxpayers money on due process, I say start with yourself! What is ironic to me is that those who claim leftist positions are based upon emotion tend to adopt positions of their own based completely on emotion of anger and revenge. If you disagree with them on this topic they get very heated and emotional and start posting stories about horrific crimes, asking you what you would do if someone killed your child, etc... justice is supposed to be dispassionate. Justice is not meted out by victims, but by society for a reason, and if people do not like that.. perhaps they should flush their constitution down the toilet and form some vigilante groups... maybe start a blood feud like they do in other countries.
