Death penalty sucks.

He belongs in a Finnish Prison. That's the only place where the wrongness of his actions will actually sink in. Something like an American or Turkish prison would only make him feel like a martyr.

how about someone who kidnaps and holds someone- and we then imprison them " we imprison those who imprison, to show that imprisoning is wrong"?

We kill those who murder. Maybe a bad idea, but not quite absurd in the way you suggest.

That's different, you see, because were not taking a human life there

Some people need to be imprisoned because they are a danger to society. I am not against that. However killing them is a bit extreme. And barbaric.

It's not about showing that killing is wrong Tass. Murder is wrong. Killing != murder. It's called punishment.

fine. imprisonment is ok with you, but killing is barbaric. Then say so. Will you admit then that "We kill those who kill to show that killing is wrong " was a silly piece of rhetoric?

No, it's called revenge. We like to see those who kill be killed because it gives us some perverse satisfaction.
It's sick, disgusting, barbaric....Completly backwards.

An appropriate punishment would be life in prison. But killing is NEVER a punishment.

Increase Your PM Length

Is there a way of killing a Muslim so he won't achieve martyrdom? Make him drink himself to death and then have his pickled body being eaten by pigs or something?
