What Do the Poles Think about the Abolition of the Death Penalty?

especially for bum bandits, eh G...?

death penalty is what distinguishes a civilised nation from an uncivilised one... along with tolorance for minorities...

I would just like to put this out there (and forgive me if it's been said, I didn't read through the entire post), but in post #4 that Matyjasz wrote, the U.S. has the largest numbers listed. We have had the death penalty for a long time. Where is the deterent if our number of violent crimes keeps increasing every year..... and the numbers are well over the numbers in Poland.

Kill'em all.

and them as well...

I think death penalty is not a bad thing, if some people have killed several people why should they still alive ? if they 'id dead at least, we will be sure they wouldn't murdered other people !

Dead people can't launch appeals to clear their names after they were wrongfully convicted.

Um, yeah..... has anyone included that little variable in the U.S, when doing this crime reporting study. The United States is not a Homogenious society. Therefore we have a different type of crime. The crime in Poland, is Polish on Polish, not black on white, hispanic on black, asian on cuban, etc.......... This makes a dramatic difference in crime statistics.

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


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.


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.

Some of you claim that this is EU demand to abolish death penalty. This is not true, please show proper paragraph if you would insist that such law exist. You confuse organizations, this is The Council of Europe (47 member countries, among them Russia and Azerbaijan) that has such regulation.

I believe in the right to pre-emptively shoot people who might habour criminal ideas, even if they havent had these ideas yet but might have them at some point in the future. Experience has shown us that good people can sometimes become bad people. It is better to shoot them pre-emptively now, than take the risk that they might turn into bad people at some point in the unforeseeable future. This is your right and you re doing it to protect your family.

I'll be sure to sniper yo ass pre-emptively then when I hunt u down

Actually, "eye for eye" is not just "a proverb"; it came from the Bible, and that's how it became a building block of the Western Culture:

exodus 21:23-21:2723


The Bible is full of exerts supporting the capital punishment:
Genesis 9:6:


Genesis 4:11-15.

Didn't they write a newer, updated version of the Bible?

Yep,mein kampf

Greg, it's 4 u

death penalty: GOOD, because a criminal is a criminal and death would set an example for the other rapists and killers

abortion: BAD -unless it is for a rape victim or something similar circumstance

so? which EU countries are not in council of europe? That means you are saying Poland is not in council of Europe? If yes, then what is the difference? I would have presumed that to join EU one cannot have death penalty anyway, and that is one of its requirements. You are saying that it is not required to have abolished the death penalty to join EU? Anyway I am in Europe and not in EU.
