Rudy Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 In my yoof I was all for capital punishment I thought it was as black and white an eye for an eye, then I watched a documentary about a guy who did 10 years on death row, was ready to be strapped to the injection table twice before his appeal came through at the 11th hour. A few years ago he was released as new DNA evidence proved not only that he couldn’t have committed the crime but also he couldn’t have been there at the time. That blew my mind because DNA was only used as evidence in a court of law in the early 90’s, how many people had been wrongly executed because of shady or fabricated evidence before that. For that reason alone I am against it, I do struggle to argue against it in certain cases though. Quote
Traf Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 Major miscarriages of justice have occurred and that's why the death penalty will never come back. One execution of an innocent man is one too many and that's why it won't happen, but Jesus, some are so clearly guilty that special dispensation should be granted. Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 Seems reasonable Rudy. What ale would they serve at the fanzone? Something with plenty of body? Quote

Who decides when 'special dispensation' is granted? I understand the emotions behind what you're saying of course. Quote
