A South Carolina man convicted of bludgeoning his ex-girlfriend's parents to death has become the first US death row inmate to be executed by firing squad in the last 15 years.
A fitting end , and he requested it should there be a Vote in the UK on returning the Death Penalty ? |

It's much more efficient to just suicide people instead of having them fight their death sentence for 2-3 decades at enormous cost for the state.

Agree 100 % , But what must happen is that they are 100 % Guilty , some dreadful mis carriages in the past
English Film called 10 Rillington Place Edy , worth a watch if you have not seen , Probably the Worse case I can think of many cases in the States I would think |

But with DNA and not beating Conessions out of People , Things should be a lot more Certain

By:
Not sure it's really worth the hassle and costs. At least in the USA it doesn't seem to be scary for people with their quite high murder rate. A murder rate that tends to be higher in the states with active death penalty even (though admittedly, maybe the populations in these often deep red states are simply more murderous and would murder even more without death penalty).

A fitting end , and he requested it
Seems odd that he is allowed to get what he wants. But it's at least almost certain of working - been a number of botched executions with other methods |

The thing about the death penalty is it's so effective. Hardly any serious crime in the US since it was implemented.

I doubt a referendum would pass it and how much "taxpayers money" would be wasted in organising it, i'd imagine it would be a big cost. The issue regarding firing squads to shoot people, who is taking apart ? When the see careers officer at school,if that is still a job, what do you want to be when you grow up ? Play for Liverpool, Dr, Lawyer, Nurse, Bricklayer, Joiner, I doubt there be many people aspiring to be part of a firing squad |
By:
If they used a firing squad for the Birmingham 6 they would have end up shooting the wrong bros. Same as Letby.
|
By:
It's also an interesting point on miscarriage of justice. It could make it harder to get a conviction if there was death penalty for certain crimes, Scotland has obviously the not proven verdict, doesn't mean you are innocent, but the Crown hasn't made it's case sufficiently to prove guilt.
|
By:
They always say one soldier on the firing squad gets a blank round so no one knows who fired the kill shots. In practice of course they would know because of the lack of recoil and different sound so the soldiers probably knew whether they had fired a live round or not.

By:
you been on many firing squads ron?

Imagine if they had shot Letby by firing squad. Doesn't bear thinking about.
|
By:
Do the Taliban or the other mad mobs over there have any bother with recoil ? Or do they just use their old stoning method and recover the gear for their next execution. Good for net zero I suppose.

she hasn't exhausted her options yet. if we had the death penatly she'd be executed in a couple of years of time |

The whole thing about woke and the right wing is strange to me because the UK far right have much more in common with the muslim fanatics and taliban, (who I assume they don't like) than woke (whatever that means) people, very confusing.

They use machine guns Kiddie fiddlers particularly get what they deserve, driven to a football stadium then tied to a post or hoisted by a crane, the relatives of the victims are allowed to batter them with sticks and whips. They are then hoisted onto a truck and are shot by machine gun in front of baying mobs. I might suggest to the islamaphobes on here that maybe convicted members of grooming gangs be deported to Afghanistan for summary Sharia justice. I would have no objections and they could take our pervert priests, judges and members the armed forces too. |

By:
I haven't even said anything about the far-right in here. I merely wanted to be informed which mob you meant has plenty, and much more, in common with muslim fanatics and the taliban. Why so defensive at that innocent request about who you yourself were referring to?
|
By:
Shouldn't it be in your own interest to get the word out which specific mob you were referring to? So that people actually know more than your nebulous stuff?
|
By:
