I think that the more GW realises that that Youtube hate-morality is coming here, the better because then we will be ready to face threats like KK4 and XaviarCraig, despite the fact that some people haven't realised the importance of the situation yet.

He's right though. Doubting whether capital punishment is severe or not based on the fact you don't know what happens in the afterlife is pretty astonishingly stupid.

doesnt killing someone amount to, as far as we know, infinite punishment?  wouldnt it be overdoing it for a finite offense?

Punishment should be about teaching someone a lesson. I dunno know about you, but if I was executed for doing something wrong I wouldnt of learned anything, you know, because Id be dead. I rather have someone imprisoned for 60 years than sentenced to death, because those 60 years gives him a choice to turn his life around[and ][/and], with execution its like YOU SCREW UP ONCE YOU DIE.

And dont get me wrong, Im not supporting the 60 year sentence. Im merely using it in comparision to death.

Edit: I also agree with the things that Dada said. Death is best left by natural causes, and we should have no control over it, imo.

Everybody who had been involved in founding modern civilization disagrees with you.

(Since you didn't give any arguments, I guess I don't need to do that either, but it's still true.)

punishement as always been about teaching of course, it's itls ultimate function, as a kid, when you're grounded or sent to bed without eating, it's because your parents want you to learn that you did something bad, and therefore not to do it again. when you're setn to prison, is just the same. when you get killed, you can't learn anything.

Well thats dumb. Thats like saying spank a child just to spank him, not to teach him not to steal a cookie from the jar again[thats ][/thats], hypothetically speaking.

I think you'll find that Couch posted after me! But beyond that I have no idea what you're trying to tell me.

He's right though. Doubting whether capital punishment is severe or not based on the fact you don't know what happens in the afterlife is pretty astonishingly stupid.
You're correct, but I was just wondering if I'm really the only one bothered by how aggressive fatty suddenly became in this thread? I just find it slightly unbecoming of him to make what are essentially misappropriated The Truth posts.

Did I accidentally slip some lecturing mod tone in there? I only meant it as a personal aside and kind of regret it now since I didn't expect it to deviate this much.

Well, I think punishment is a way to pay for your crimes and for the loss you caused, it's not like spanking children for eating a cookie. The government is not your father.

Giving chance for rehabilitation is a different story, I'm talking about prison.  Of course it has a teaching side but it's mainly about punishing you.

You will probably totally destroy me in any argument, but: I wouldn't say they are correct in their assumptions that punishment=teaching, as crime rates are steadily increasing every year, with more and more repeat offenders. Obviously they are socio-economic reasons and factors in this, but it still stands to reason that the penal system does not work very well. I am not saying I have a better system, but it still doesn't work very well.

Punishment is usually used as a deterrent rather than rehabilitation, with regards to prison. More people are deterred by jail or the prospect of returning to jail than are "fixed" by the system.

I just noticed alot of people are quoting my posts BEFORE I admitted they were probably bad ideas... Did you people miss the 2nd post on the 4th page of this thread? I openly admitted my ideas were wrong and disregarded them. Zeratul's points convinced me I had the wrong approach, therefore I revoked all previous thoughts/ideas.... Just thought I would point this out seeing as people are still acting like I stand firmly by what I said earlier....

I'm not saying deterrence isn't a factor, I'm saying that it's not just about one thing. Like I explained before, there are several functions a punishment given by the state fulfills. It's not all black and white.

He can rot for an eternity for all I care. Kidnapped, raped and abused a 6 year old? No compassion from me.

Précisement. Say bye bye to your life, kiddo. It's too bad they couldn't just give him the chair or something.
