So, to the person who almost had their scooter nicked. If these toe-rags did go to prison then the Officers will be calling them Mr this and Mr that and what would you like for dinner? How does that make you feel about this government?
Quote by browning
America does not have the death penalty.
Sounds like a stupid statement, let me explain.
If someone gets sentanced to death in the USA, they spend an average of 10 yrs on death row and then 90% of cases get changed to life with no parole. The problem is that whilst they are still alive there is always a chance they could be released.
If you are going to have the death penalty it should be carried out within a month of sentance.
I know people will say " what if they are innocent", if you are going to say that then you must accept the high crime rate we have.
Better 10 guilty men go free than one innocent man get's hung?, not anymore. The chances of being found guilty today for a murder you did not commit is almost impossible (DNA etc etc).
I do not want my taxes paying to keep the likes of ian huntley, myra hindley, rose west etc.
Any country with a low punishment rate has a high crime rate and vice versa. I went to Cuba and there is virtually no crime, you know why?, because they get punished.
The problem with being a liberal tolerent society is that we get high crime, we worry about the rights of criminals, but what about THE RIGHTS OF THE VICTIMS?.
Rant over.

....
They are some youths that just do not belong in one....no matter what the crime, the punnishment doesnt always fit.
The bullying that happens (I know it doesnt officially... unofficially it does, big time), young people hanging themselves in a cell? Because the bully who is in isolation calls out from a crack of a window, words are powerful and can have an amazing effect putting the fear of god into someone who is already as low as they can get and frightened.

Quote by keenoThe finger print evidence was not at fault, it prove the man handled the cards. Finger prints do not prove guilt, they prove facts that are use by the jury to judge guilt.
The over realiance on forensic evidence in murder cases is very worrying. Here are some real incidents:
A man arrested for tampering with the Royal Mail (a very serious crime) The evidence his finger prints all over some of the recovered letters. Why? he had sent the Christmas cards himself.
Quote by keenoThis will have been discover when the equipment was tested and calibrated. All evidence will then been retested. If in this case it had not been done it is a failing of the lab, not the science.
A man convicted of terrorism because traces of semtex were found on his clothing. Why? The testing equipment was contaminated with semtex. Everything tested had traces.
Quote by keenoHalf of any child's DNA comes from each parent. In very rear cases where an individual is a Chimera tests from different parts of the body can result in different DNA.
A woman hadher children taken away because they did not match her DNA. It has since been discovered that some people have DNA that doesn't match their parents. Question, what else don't they know about DNA.
Quote by keenoIt is always up to people to understand what is being tested and what it proves. Forensic science never proves guilt only facts.
I am very cynical about forensic evidence. The people developing it have a vested interest in talking up their products to increase investment. They would never tell us they don't work or if there are problems.
