Why I favor life for Moussaoui
Wikipedia | 5/4/06 | Me

Posted on 05/04/2006 4:24:27 PM PDT by mucho muchacho

A quick painless death is way too good for this monster. he're where he'll spend the rest of his life:

"ADX Florence is generally home to between 400 and 500 male prisoners. About 22 percent of inmates have killed fellow prisoners in other correctional facilities; 35 percent have attempted to attack other prisoners or officers. As a result, most individuals are kept for at least 23 hours each day in solitary confinement. They are housed in a 7-by-12 foot (3.5-by-2 meter) soundproofed room, built behind a steel door and grate. The remaining free hour is spent exercising alone in a separate concrete chamber. Prisoners rarely see each other, and inmates' only human interaction is limited to that of the correctional officers. Religious services are broadcast in from a small chapel.

Most cells' furniture is made almost entirely out of poured concrete, including a desk, stool, and bed covered by a thin mattress. Each chamber contains a toilet that shuts off if plugged, a shower that runs on a timer to prevent flooding, and a sink missing a potentially dangerous tap. Rooms may also be fitted with polished steel mirrors bolted to the wall, an electric light, a 13-inch black and white television that shows only educational programming, which not all inmates are allowed to have, and a cigarette lighter. Windows in rooms are small, set high up in the wall, and point towards the sky, confusing the prisoner as to his specific location within the complex.

The prison as a whole contains countless motion detectors and cameras, 1,400 remote-controlled steel doors, and 12-foot high razor wire fences. Laser beams, pressure pads, and attack dogs guard the area between the prison walls and razor wire."

As an added bonus:

"Many have argued that the psychological effects of long-term solitary confinement can be devastating. Prisoners may suffer from hallucinations, anxiety, problems with impulse control, and self-mutilation. In addition, confinement may encourage anger and rage, resulting in further violence. Depression may set in, with prisoners becoming extremely lethargic, losing memory, and refusing to exercise."

I like the gang member who was sentenced to that supermax prison. He told the judge "You're sentencing me to die a little every day"

Well, it sounds like a good punishment until I think about paying for it the rest of his life with my money. Then I would prefer they would just knock him off.

Actually he is just going to turn into a terrorist bargaining chip to be released in a hostage exchange.

We are going to have to find the courage to kill our enemies soon.

To me, the best thing about a life sentence is that the creep no longer has a forum.

He has enjoyed the limelight. That's over.

Were he sentenced to death, there would be appeals and hubbub before the execution. This way, he's gone. Wish we didn't even have to feed him, but at least we don't have to hear about him any more.

I can't imagine that would ever really happen. Has the US ever released a convicted terrorist in a prisoner exchange? I know other countries have.

Ramsey Yusef hasn't become a bargaining chip.

We haven't been in a situation like this before. These people dont play by the rules and we are acting like we are way to good. Sort of like the redcoats in colonial America.

It won't last long.

I'm certain that he'll become the girlfriend of some thug within three months of prison...and dead within a year.

If we change our basic principles and beliefs BECAUSE of them, they've won.

We already changed. Years ago we would have known what to do with a prisoner of war. We would have hanged him and not turned this into a media show.

Would Moussaoui be there in his cell now or does it take a few days? What's the normal process?
