Advantages: Safer streets
Disadvantages: None that I can see
While I do not condone the taking of life for motives of revenge,
I feel that there are people out there who will never have any feeling for the taking of innocent life. Recently , we have a case
where one man killed five women for some sort of sexual kicks,
another where a man raped a tiny baby. Surely these individuals
are incapable of any sort of human compassion and should not
be allowed to live and work among normal people. Apart from
any other reason, these perversions can be passed to offspring
and another generation of perverts is born. In tha cases of violent assaults on innocent citizens, punishment must fit the crime. Prison has become a place of comfortable incarceration, where inmates have all home comforts, including, I believe,
conjugal visits.I can remember when a sentence meant hard labour and was to be avoided at all costs. The final crux of the
matter is the ridiculous Human Rights Act, which gives the criminal
more freedom than his victim. This cannot be right and must be
repealed. I personally will vote for the first politician brave enough to push this through.
Summary: The feelings of many law-abiding citizens

HelenW - 29.03.08 The Human Rights Act of 1998 is not ridiculous, it was brought in to prevent British citizens (like yourself, I am assuming) from having to go to the European Court of Human Rights just to be able to assert their fundamental rights as humans.
What do you reckon would happen if the Human Rights Act was abolished, therefore removing your rights to life, liberty, security of the person, to not be tortured or treated inhumanely etc.
And "Surely these individuals
are incapable of any sort of human compassion and should not
be allowed to live and work among normal people" - this is no argument for capital punishment, merely for prisons to exist... |
