Unspeakable horror

Your a funny man, "medical experiments", "death sentence" lol, you should work for the daily mail, your sensationalised pathetic reply doesn't even deserve a response, your cleverer than that mate.

locking a man away till he dies is a death sentence, by another name,

institutionalised, studied, find out what actually brings a person to commit a crime like that, try to gain a higher understanding of this type of persons mentality,

And yes that would be classed as a medical experiment, and I doubt he would be willing to undergo the experiment and study, and so it would be against his will.
 
But one which can be at least be reversed if a mistake has been made. Which is why I am generally opposed to the death penalty.

beheading a child in a supermarket in front of witnesses/cameras would be counted as certain proof really.

Although i agree the death sentence should be reserved unless it is certain.

In this case, not doubt, the problem comes when drafting a law with regards to "certain proof" and making it foolproof. I have no desire for the state to effectively execute an innocent man on my behalf just to satisfy someone's craving for revenge.

In addition I also feel that execution can sometimes be the easy way out for at least some killers. How many killers subsequantly commit suicide or attempt suicide to get away from their sentence/guilt?

To be fair, you're only one or two steps away from thought crime.
 
To be honest, killing him isn't punishment at all. You're just giving him an easy way out. Instead of punishing him, making him deal with this utterly despicable event and action, you're giving him the privilege of not having to deal with it. There isn't any justice in that.

If it were me there, and it was my child. I would have gone at him. Not going to deny it, I'd have tried to rip off his throat. But that would be an enraged response to a horrible action - logic hardly comes into that, nor does justice. You just want to unleash the anger, sorrow, hatred, and desire for revenge.

I understand the thought behind 'removing him from the world' - but I don't see that as a fitting punishment from this person. It's kinda like locking the barn door after the horse has escaped.

So now you've gone from second chance to its a worse punishment?
 
I agree he deserves what he gets, but i think a life in a Vietnam prison would be worse than death. He should be torchered until he dies, that way he would wish he was dead.
 
Also how is locking him up, not closing the barn door after the horse has bolted?

I guess it is in a way, perhaps I was using the wrong analogy - but killing him is like the horse escaping, and closing the door and that's it - whereas locking him up, in this case, is the horse escaping, being brought back in, and closing the door.
