Well, ya know, there is that thing called due process of law... you can't just execute people the second they are convicted. Do you know how many innocent people we would wind up killing if we never gave anyone the chance for appeals?
130 innocents would of been executed since 1976, I have no idea how long they where on death row.
True I personally believe they inflated the price so much higher than it should be to keep those revolving doors spinning, keeping their cash cows living. Why would a prison be the slightest bit concerned in lowering crime they get paid to house inmates.
That's not a "problem", it's a plan.
you cannot grant someone life, so why would you think you can take it away.
If a dog bites your child you take it out back and put it down. Same concept for rapist.
Uhhhh, not quite. If a dog bites my child, first i check to make sure that my child wasn't doing something stupid. If you pull a dogs tail, or hit it, or some other bullshit that poorly-parented kids do all the time, and get bit, I'm not gonna kill a dog for defending itself. Even if the kid wasn't fucking with the dog, my first course of action would always be retraining, I would never kill a dog because it bit someone once. Only a monster would do that, to punish a dog for the ineptitude of its owner.
I value my dogs' lives more than I value the life of most strangers. They are part of my family, and my family will always come first.
Yeah, you've been raped.
I watch my pitbull get hit with a baseball bat by a 5 yr old and he just ran away like he should. I ran out their right away and started spanking some sense into that lil hellion. If it would of bit the child I would of put him down, a dog should be raised to never hurt or show any sort of aggression toward children.
So the opinion of law enforcement is relevant? They can make statistics say whatever they want. My source is your source. You can let them tell you what the data mean, or you can read it for yourself.
all of that is fucked up. if You hit my kid over shit like that I'd put you in a hospital. enough of this bullshit. should not have replied to this thread. In closing, I am surprised and uplifted at the "NO" option leading 1.5x in this poll. Good for you RIU.
It was family friends kid I was babysitting, he even spanked him some more once he picked his kid up. I doubt it I would have some lead in your head before you knew it.
Not law enforcement, Criminologists. Arguably the top Criminologists in the world.
A kid who gets spanked acts out by beating animals? What a surprise! Why would I expect anything other than that you are part of continuing a cycle of violence. You are fit to raise neither dogs nor children.
For one he never as far as I know hit another dog. Shit I had it rough as a kid and I never harmed animals. That kids main source of punishment was to sit in the corner but seeing him do that to a dog meant he was going to get some corporal punishment. His parents both agreed.
congrats, you just put him at greater risk to perpetuate animal abuse.
The kid only received corporal punishment when fit, that was one of the moments that was fit for it. When I was growing up I was beat for the smallest of things yet I never harmed animals. The way I was raised is no way to raise a kid and I use that as a reference as what not to do when raising a kid.
so you think that there are certain times where it is appropriate to physically beat a defenseless child?
It is not beating it is a spanking, what I got growing up was beatings, what I do is spankings. It is appropriate to spank children who misbehaved badly.
