"Peter Gottlieb" wrote in message news  Your misconceptions are astounding. That being said, the death penalty doesn't seem to be a very effective deterrent anyhow. It's deterred everyone that's received it.

Let me correct an obvious misperception you seem to have: people get killed
in prison, also! Life without parole is not an absolute deterrent; the death penalty is... "Peter Gottlieb" wrote in message . net... "Steven P. McNicoll" wrote in message ink.net...

"Bill Denton" wrote in message ... Let me correct an obvious misperception you seem to have: people get killed in prison, also! Life without parole is not an absolute deterrent; the death penalty is... Why do you believe that I think people don't get killed in prison? It's not that I'm against the death penalty, it's just that I am frustrated that it doesn't seem to work all that well as a deterrent. I say, step out of line whatsoever, and get the death penalty. Everything. Speeding, flying over gross, unsubstianted tax deductions, EVERYTHING. And no friggin appeals either. Screw these prisons wasting my tax dollars. Can't or won't live with our laws? Death. Don't like the religion of the president, elected by THE PEOPLE? Death. This should also help with this terrible traffic situation we have around here.

Does it work for you. :~) I say, step out of line whatsoever, and get the death penalty. Everything. Speeding, flying over gross, unsubstianted tax deductions, EVERYTHING.

So I get to pay to keep people in food, shelter and entertainment for doing bad things? No thanks. It warmed my heart when I moved to the south a few years back to see convict road crews doing work. Now, maybe it costs us more to pay the guards to watch them and for insurance, etc, but at least we get something out of it.
