What Do the Poles Think about the Abolition of the Death Penalty? [48]
Do Polish believe restricting legal handguns helps reducing crime, or it is the opposite?
hmmm...well look at incidents such as the Texas church shoot-out, the Virginia Highschool shootout ect.
The unifying factor amongst all these tragedies is the
availability of firearms, especially semi-automatic handguns, which are the weapons of choice for rampage and workplace shooters.
The public and guns seems to create more problems, more unnessesary deaths.
As to using guns to fight crime...Things just seem to get worse when people take crime into their own hands.
HOWEVER.I do understand the other side. I live in South Africa where crime is a serious problem and a life sentence in prison is not enough. The prisons are full and rapists and murderers walk free after two weeks - if they are caught.
My friends mother was beaten up last week, ended up with 9 stitches in her head, they tied her up with her bra and repeatedly kicked her. The wanted to sodomize her but luckely it was taking too long to get her jeans off. Their neighbor however, was raped 3 weeks before, infront of her two tied up kids. These people were dam lucky. Why? you might ask? Because they are still ALIVE. The suspects are still at large and will probably be...forever. With such a long waiting list of suspects, incidents, rapes, the police simple cant get to it all.
So we'v had incidents where the community has struck back. In the black communities, when a rapist, murderer or theif is let out of prison, or simply caught in the act before the police comes (it can take the police a few days to get to the crime scene, this is often too late) the community work togeather and well, kill the criminal, usually by stoning him or using garden tools to kill him. This has, to a certain extent helped crime in black townships and communities. But by a very tiny pecentage. Is this right? I dont know, I have mixed feelings about it.
But after I read this post
As I said before, had Hitler (the SOB) been captured would he not deserve to be put to death?
I thought no...after all the years of horrendous atrocities that this creature managed to do, would it be justifiable for him to just...die? Just like that. Bam. Gone. Yey?
No, i'd like to see him defeated, in a hectic prison, along with other rapist and murderers, on a life sentence. And prison isnt just sitting doing nothing. Its managing with other criminals. Many people contract AIDS in prison becuse they are raped...guys on guys. Prisoners are stabbed, tortured, beaten up, burned, by other prisoners. I'd rather watch him (Hitler/murderers etc) suffer in prison for the rest of their lives, or in solitary confinement - in prison, then just die off.
Besides, whats waiting for them after their long suffering in prison is even worse when God judges them. Let them await for death in fear!! Let them wait for a loooong time.
Therefore we have a different type of crime
hmmm...I have not heard about racist crimes as much. Most of the crimes I hear on the news are ones commitied by whites on whites. White men on white baby girls, and white women on white women as the latest news report said - something about the one chick killing the other pregnant one.
