i really dont know how i am a tool for not caring about killing a man who destroyed anothers life

You're talking about the latter, and as I said, it's one thing to not care, and it's quite another to take that life with your own hands, which I doubt you would do, because that takes some serious cold blood. Even if you had lost touch with yourself and could take his life, doing so makes you no better than him, aside from the rape.  That, is my point.  Saying you could take his life, with that explanation, makes you a tool.

i guess that would raise the question as to whom the firing squad the government rallies together might consist of then?

Nice attempt at playing a heartfelt victim. Do you really think youre the only person around with a loved-one over there?  Guess what, you'd be hardpressed to find someone that doesn't at least KNOW someone who's affected by this war. It's great your brother is over there helping the native people become stronger, but to think that there aren't still soldiers over there facing gunfire is silly.  Granted he didn't say it delicately, but people over there ARE still fighting, not just teaching.

i speak my mind, it doesnt hvae to be delicate...and not everyone is "teaching" people, some people ARE indeed, blowing heads off, if we can do it over there, why the hell can't we do it over here. I dont care if i appall you, sometimes the truth sucks, but the truth is the truth, appalling or not, and just fort he record im 17 too, age has NOTHING to do with ones opinion compaired to the other. I may be cold, but im not a heartless killer who will blow off my neighbors, kids head because he left a toy on our lawn. I'm cold towards those who have done nothing with thier lives except ruin others.

I never could figure out why people dislike the guillotine.  Seems like a perfectly good method.

The only better one I can think of is the ShortyPB Giant Crush'em Flat Rock.  Or was that EE, I forget...

you've been insulting me ever since i brought my "appalling" opinion on this debate. Don't be hypocritical.

Oh, and you just contradicted yourself. last time i checked, rape was indeed a "heinous" crime.

And i wouldn't "just kill a man" either, i would kill him because of the lives he had ruined AND the fact he IS on death row, what really set me off about wanting to shoot him was the fact that he could ACTUALLY take that BS of an excuse that the needle eould "casue him pain" because he had become overweight. So therefore they had to stop the execution.
