I really enjoyed my time target shooting but the current Mrs H doesn't want anything to do with guns so all that's stopped. She doesn't like bikes either - oh well :)

(Hey - one of my posts got through :lol: )

How do you know it doesn't work? I am convinced it would save many many lives.

It nearly always works, unless they don't get the drop right or tie the knot properly.

If it worked, there would be no murders, and hence no executions, just like in the US.... er, no, something's not right there... :confused:

They'd find it hard to re-offend, hanging from the end of a rope. I have allways been of the belief that the penalty should be a punnishment NOT a deterrant.
My darling wife feels they should be burried alive. Sweet girl she is.:D

How do you know it would save many many lives? I'm know it does kill too many innocents.


Didn't you watch the green mile? :lol:

Yes and Doctor Who but I don't expect to see the tardis land in my back garden any time soon :lol: :lol:

Seriously though there is no disputing that it would make some potential murderers think twice before killing. We've already stated that it won't stop the mentally deranged or drugged up scumbags but it will without doubt stop some murders. It would without doubt stop people from re-offending !

I guess we have to get to a point in society where we consider whose human rights need protecting most; the innocent victim of murder or the perpetrator.

The reality of what you say is so patently obvious that I am amazed at the number of people who fail to give it credence.

Tonio600 13-Oct-2006 11:49

Maybe because we go beyond the obvious.

What is obvious today may no longer be so tomorrow.
