Illinois Death Row Clemency

Originally posted by Yorick: I asked, "What if there's a mistake? Just say that the human killed is innocent" and you replied "The executioner sent a murderer to his just rewards" Did you not read? I said, just say that the person is innocent. JUST SAY THE PERSON DID NOT COMMIT THE MURDER, YET WAS MISTAKENLY CONVICTED AS HAS HAPPENED IN THE PAST. Follow the hypotheticals if you want to contribute a point against it. If this is the best you bloodlusters can do, give up [img]graemlins/rant.gif[/img] [/QB]

I realize that you are against taking anyone’s life; I am not arguing that point. To follow the hypothetical: I believe in this day and age we are able to tell, without a doubt, that some killers are guilty. So if someone is absolutely guilty, then maybe the death penalty is, at least, justified; even if you believe it is not humane.

P.s. I do not consider myself a “bloodluster” [img]smile.gif[/img]
