What i am trying to get is a moral justification for killing a person who has already been taken out of society. Not sure how that is being stupid, but if belligerence is how you deal with opposing opinions, then I've got nothing for you.
with regard to the statistics, it isnt me that is pointing this out, it is amnesty international. And if you want to deny the ability of statistics to be used to describe trends, then what do you have left?
aren't you a bit old for name calling?
Slushbox, the problem here is that you do not have a rational foundation to base your idea on. Giving conflicting quotes from the bible and the Quar'an do not establish any ideological firmament to base those beliefs on.
As to the slippery slope, i was using your logic. Earlier you were using killers escaping and killing as a justification for killing them. using that rationale as justification for the death penalty was the slippery slope and i was only trying to show you your logic. Im glad that you at least picked up on the slippery slope.
