21 for a handgun in Indy. Long guns are fine for 18.
Apparently none of those folks had billions of dollars.
A VERY SOUND and timely idea.
In the past Tennessee previously used it regularly.
1. Capital punishment ought to be on the table for any crime which the victim would have been authorized to resist with deadly force. In such cases, the criminal has placed a higher value on the fruits of his crime than he has his own life. That's not to say every such crime should be punished by death, but it ought to be in the prosecutor's quiver to be considered in the totality of the circumstances (violence of the act in question, criminal record, etc.)
2. Prosecutorial misconduct should, upon conviction, be automatically punishable by the maximum allowable punishment the prosecutor was seeking when the misconduct occurred.
3. Swatting/False Police Reports/False Accusations: Upon conviction, the perpetrator should automatically be imprisoned for the maximum allowable sentence for the crime they have falsely alleged another person to have committed.
“What is surprising is the local DA seems to coming down hard on Cleotha”
He’s probably been ‘advised’ regarding the damage angry billionaires are able to do to Democrats...so best to prosecute this one killer - so that he can stay in office and free hundreds of other killers.
“Bring back ole sparky”
Be sure to include the k-mart sponge on top, they smoke real good.
“She was running nut. Apparently this was a regular thing for her.”
Part of the transition to being a Third World country is understanding that one must give up certain freedoms, like being safe outdoors.
I run early too. Not that early but it isn’t hot early in the morning
And if she had to be somewhere early then run early
The man is evil. How or why I don’t know. But if ever someone was right for the death penalty, he seems to be it.
In her pictures, she looked like a long-distance runner (very thin, but muscular). If so, she likely ran for over an hour several mornings a week before cleaning up and going to work.
I used to go running at 5 most mornings (many years and many, many pounds ago). OTOH, I was over 6' tall and had nothing worth stealing.
Whenever a woman disappears, the husband or boyfriend is the first suspect that has to be investigated and ruled out, because in most cases the husband or boyfriend did it.
What kind of blame the victim stupid shiite are you pushing ?
Add “Bring back public hangings in the courthouse square” to the top of your list.
The death penalty is not much of a deterrent when everyone knows that it will take at least 20 years to execute anyone sentenced to death and if he is ever executed, he will be peacefully put to sleep.
In our system, within the law, some states have legally passed a death penalty. Felons get more chances, dna retrials and lots and lots of delays. Often 20 years of delay in prison.
It is no good to have a good law for the death penalty if it is not used often.
As long as rich liberals can still hire armed bodyguards that is all that matters.
Who else knows you well enough to want you dead?...
