British man to be exectuted by Chinese

I can find America on that list. several states have abolished it.
turkey, poland, italy, chile, mexico most of the old eastern block are all small countrie, as well as a lot of African countries because they always listen to america?

How about Russia although they still have it on the legal books they have not used it in over a decade.

America as a whole not states. America still has capital punishment, so it doesnt count.

Africa was ruled under British laws no? Theres your answer. Even so, Africa itself is quite a barbaric continent so I wouldnt know how they deal with their punishments.

Im not sure about Russia, but again, Russia is quite a "dirty" country in a sense that its quite shady.

bipolar could mean all sorts of things and could be just the major diagnosis - its quite common with people who suffer from mental disorders to suffer from a number of related disorders. i.e. someone diagnosed with aspergers may be capable of dealing with their condition and leading an almost normal life, whereas someone else also diagnosed may present with the full symptoms of autism also and need constant care their entire life.

So bipolar is quite a broad medical condition, maybe too broad which is why it was use as its defense :confused:
 
No loss tbh

And englishman is a rather vague term given he is probably an imigrant . If you cant do the time dont do the crime. Dunno why people are supporting him. No loss to us or his family
 

It pretty much enforces my opinion of what an over liberal, tree hugging waste of space our society has become when these views are criticised. :mad:
Let's blame journalists for having strong views on punishment instead of actually punishing scumbag miscreants that deserve the death they are themselves peddling.
Yeah, let's keep on repeating the scandalous Sandra Gregory debacle, would that keep you happy? She's done quite nicely out of drug smuggling thanks to spineless lefties that value her life over the smackheads she's happy to kill.
Good riddance to him, and respect to China for upholding it's own legal values in it's own country. In Holland it is legally acceptable to have sex with a 12yr old girl (with parent's consent), does that mean that a Dutchman that has sex with a 12yr old in the UK is immune from prosecution because it's viewed differently in his own country?

Pakistani actually, not English.
He's conveniently English now though eh? ;)
Good riddance.

Total straw man, prosecution and execution (an act which breaches human rights) are two completely different things. For a start one is a punishment the other is an attempt to prove guilt.

Whether he was mentally ill or not, it can't be denied that his crime could have caused thousands of deaths (23,000+ i think it was stated). His punishment however, should have been seriously reconsidered if he was in fact mentally ill. If he was fully aware of what he was doing and the repercussions it would have on so many lives, he DESERVES that death penalty. But only his family know if he truly was mentally ill or whether they were just trying to get him out of it...
 
meh... dug smuggler (who afaik didn't say he was inoccent) gets executed according to local law - seems fair to me!

tbh I don't care whether he had bi-polar disorder or whatever, whats to say he wouldn't have another funny turn or whatever you call it and do the same thing again - he would have to be locked up for ever to prevent it, so they might as well kill him.
 
That article in the Daily Mail describes the 1940s as Britain's most peaceful years...

Did they forget that little incident we called World War 2? :rolleyes:

They have to by their very nature, after all how would its immigrant policy stand up to scrutiny when presented with the evidence of mass inbound immigration after the war ended and how those very people worked side by side with us to rebuild the UK economy?

our government has to respect chinas rules of their country, why should it be one rule for their people and another for ours...the only thing wrong with it is that the guy might not have had a fair court hearing

You are basing the notion of a fair hearing upon our standards of the concept rather than theirs.
Granted, it was the same mistake I made. ;)
