This thread says.....an eye for an eye.

Any banana's any one? Look! The world as one! If you dont want the world as one.........then go to a zoo and see who you are.

Now I give up.

If you and the world can see what your doing...........there is knowings, and only life can see.

Oh and I meant to add....my condolences to the family of the latest fallen police officer........may this kind of people "never be released."

Eye for a eye....life for a life.

Thanks to all that put their life on the line for all of us, we appropriately stand for one minutes silence.

Hi quantumleap...

Indeed, I totally agree with you. It is so very sad to see another copper murdered in the line of duty.

What sort of punishment fits such a crime ? I really don't know. Even though I'm now retired from the job, I still do not agree with capital punishment under any circumstances.

I do beileve however, long Gaol terms, without any early parole, may be the answer ? NOT exclusively for the murder of police per se, (as I stated earlier on in this thread), for ALL Capital crime where there's not a skerrick of mitigation disclosed.

But that's not going to happen is it !

What is the point of a sentence when there is a parole period ? The fact is that simple stealing doesn't attract the attention of magistrates & so, the culprit steps up & on it goes. By the time the culprit has developed a mentality devoid of compassion & responsibility it is too late as by then he's learnt how to manipulate a magistrate's warped mentality. I would like to see the Law reform Commission to wake up & do what they get paid huge monies for.

o sung wu...yes, capital punishment I too disagree with, and early prole is defiantly out of the question. If people are not made for society, then life in prison can only help as a deterrent for likes of these jail want-to-be,s and to me life means life. Although in the US, the death penalty works as a great persuader for the lawless, just the notion of lethal injection is enough to run chills through the spine.

I don't know, in some cases like the Anita Colby killers, life seems a fitting sentence, however if the crime is sickening to the stomach, I think it would fair to put these animals out of there misery. See it depends after its happened to you, most change there tune.

No-one has the right to take a life and we all believe that, but some situations cry's out for the eye for an eye and even the bible has passages to that effect. So if God calls for it, how can anyone who believes say No.

The cost alone per in-mate is just staggering, and a heaver reality would for most I think, make them think again before they take a life.

o sung wu. Hi

I know your a retired officer of the law, and I was just wondering if you yourself have been shot at? I hope you don't mind. I think most people would understand the dangers of your profession and unfortunately the bravery that it takes, has little understanding.


"Mandatory life term for cop killers and all killers alike" I'd add.

Enjoy your time of peace.
