1. You noticed. I'm sure that we aren't the only good option though. But I guess the price of education may be tempting.
  2. Quite some Iranians at my tech. university. Smart people

    I think humans make lousy judges for humans and death does not teach one who may have come from a deprived background any different,and people can change,imprisonment is fair enough.
    I dont mind paying taxes to know that one is scarred for life for what they had done to somebodies love one,because the scars they created in ones mind has put them to death over and over again,which is worse than death,it like a dead man walking,which I have felt plenty a time.


    I personally consider the death penalty more humane than life imprisonment, and I don't care how shitty there life was.

Originally posted by Buttons:Its those who know they are wrong and deliberately cause cruel pain in every evil way,lie about it and do it over and over again who really deserve death and not even with understanding because they know to well how the mind works and how to destroy it, they dont deserve to even suffer to have understanding remorse on one to die with dignity,is my opinion.


    Charles Manson? Gary Ridgeway?

    So if he does so in court and is convicted to death
    the bible says wages sin pays is death, so the person
    is free'd by death, instead of being judged and punnished properly.
    If the 11 year old girl was mine, sure I would think death out of anger
    but not if it releases them from real punnishment,even sick people take death for the easy way out, worse when the bible in court says,your aquitted from sin when you die before everything.


    Seeing as I'm agnostic, that arguement don't work for me, and if there is a god, I cant help but feel he didn't let Jeffrey Dahmer in heaven.

    At the end of the day,a person should get punnishment for their wrong choices however how a large punnishment but not death,but also forgiveness if the person has any heart in them.
    We certainly dont know what or who pushes one to do such things,which is sometimes the case.
    Not saying its an excuse to do wrong,but an excuse for forgiveness through punishment.


    Forgiveness is for idiots.

    What about the people who risk their lives guarding them in prison? My dad worked at a prison and watched 4 friends die because imprisonment is not enough. I have been to 2 funerals because imprisonment is not enough. You're saying that when someone is murdered, the murderer is scarred for life? Are you sure the murderer even cares? If they cared, many would not have committed the murder in the first place.....


    I'd like to thank your father to his service. I'm hoping to become a police officer myself, but I have friends who hope to become corrections officers so I am rather familiar with the dangers they face.

    Since you don't have a job you're also burden to the taxpayers, but nobody will try to kill you because of that. Killing someone as a punishment is just barbaric. Communists used to do it a lot, you know.


    What you fail to grasp is the effort I am putting into bettering myself.
  10. I've never met an Iranian. Shame really. I know there is some down by Detroit, but anyone who lives in Michigan knows that Detroit is a city one should avoid unless you really have to go there.

    Course the small towns are what make this state great imo.
