The Death Penalty, Schwarzenegger and The Exonerated

[Ov3rmind]

"When you can show me the death penalty is a viable deterrant, then maybe I'd agree. But until then, no."

Thats because people know they have a far better chance of doing life in prison, than getting the chair. A few hundred public exocution would do the trick.

Kind of like when Saddam ruled Iraq?

I totally agree with Rooster.

Bring back the fear and it will most certainly become a deterrant.

I say, take it one step further.

Castrate convicted child molesters and rapists and other sex offenders.

Not sure what to do about drunken drivers. Cut off their hands I guess as they could still operate the pedals with stumps.

Bring back the gore and physical disfigurement and I'm pretty willing to be there will be a significant drop in violent crime.
