[QUOTE="maximusmmii"][QUOTE="thisoldman"][QUOTE="maximusmmii"][QUOTE="thisoldman"]no im not being sarcastic. and what is immoral and indignified is spending $20,000 a year on each criminal in jail. Yes they get out and eventually contribute to society but the taxdollars that would be saved are far greater than what they could contribute in monetary terms, espcecialy considering 2/3 felons go back to prison. How much does a .22 bullet cost? a few cents.
If u crunch the numbers you will see execution is much more efficient.

i am going to pretend to take your argument halfway seriously for this post:
if you had actually "crunched the numbers," you would have learned that it costs taxpayers more money to execute a convict than to keep him/her in jail for life. this is because the legal costs that are involved in the execution of the average prisoner are in the 7 figures range.
face it, fascism doesn't work.
did i mention earlier and throughout the post that im totally against lethal injection. imo take them outside of the courthouse after the jury finds them guilty and pay one of the courthouse gards to shoot them in the head at the execution wall next to the parking lot.
what the hell are you talking about? how would that make capital punishment more cost effective?
you are not a libertarian. you are a fascist. your ideas are not rational.
it costs 7 figures to execute nowadays because of the beauracracy and hoops ppl have to jump through to guarantee an execution and all these appleals that they go through and the resulting legal cost.
We the jury find joe guilty.
Joe is immediately taken outside and shot in the head, his body is given to his family for burial"
Joe is now "Deceased" for all intents and purposes.
the end
you can come up with all these "what if the jury was tampered with and they didtn find out till months later" excuses all you want. all i have to say is that those are rare cases and can be written off.
does anyone really even need to explain why this is a terrible idea? have you ever read a history book? do you understand that totalitarianism in the 20th century has been the worst thing to happen to man kind in its existence? why do you want to resurrect elements of these ideologies?
