ROFL
"To my Lord’s in the morning, where I met with Captain Cuttance, but my Lord not being up I went out to Charing Cross, to see Major- general Harrison hanged, drawn, and quartered; which was done there, he looking as cheerful as any man could do in that condition.
"He was presently cut down, and his head and heart shown to the people, at which there was great shouts of joy. ...Thus it was my chance to see the King beheaded at White Hall, and to see the first blood shed in revenge for the blood of the King at Charing Cross. From thence to my Lord’s, and took Captain Cuttance and Mr. Sheply to the Sun Tavern, and did give them some oysters."
They do - when they’re in prison.
[[I just pointed that out, because it always seems like such a cop out to depend on them getting mistreated in jail, or being sent to hell after death.]]
Well, eternity in hell isn’t a copout, as those maggots will soon learn- nightmare doesn’t even come close to describing the pain/fear and sufferign they ARE goign to receive there-
[[I want JUSTICE now!]]
I understand- so do i- however, there is NO TRUE justice anymore in public courts- by all rights, these maggots should be shoved in deplorable conditions while they await a horrbile death- made to fear every day until execution day- but bleeding heart liberals put a stop to true justice, and the ‘eye for an eye’ and the ‘sow and reap in likekind’ justice of old, and so maggots like those freaks don’t FEAR our justice system anymore- bleeding heart liberals saw to that
It is long past time to wait upon the govt justice system to protect and serve the community. These people need lynched, the very day they are found guilty. You can bet the perps will get 20 years, and serve 5. The girl will get 10 and become pregnant, and allowed to raise her child in a halfway house/community outreach center, then released in 3 years.
These people would be the same if they were raised in a loving home. People are what they are, with very few exceptions. This was not a robbery, a slaying of rivals or drug sales, this kind of act comes from actual indwelling evil. One third of all creation rebelled against God, they are now living among us. This is their chance at salvation, and they are “rebelling” until the last.
For all the bluster and idle talk of vigilantism, let’s understand what will actually happen to these little dears.
They’ll be given free legal counsel, at our expense. If they elect to go to trial, that will also be at our expense.
Assuming conviction, they will be incarcerated. At our expense. During that term of incarceration, they will be provided three meals a day, housing, clothing, warmth in the winter, air conditioning in the summer. They won’t have to wait for obamacare: their medical and dental care will be provided for them. At our expense.
And some day, probably quite soon, the little dears will be let go. They’ll be put on some useless sex offender registry. At our expense. And then they’ll most likely go off to rape, rob, or murder again.
You get what you pay for.
I don’t know how this would contribute to the breakdown of society. It would force the government to act in the manner of true Justice, or lose their hold on the rich mans playpen they romp in.
You are exactly right. They should be hanged in the public square. Until we get serious about crime nothing is going to change. It is not that difficult. The answers are simple.
This is a good case for genetic eradication.
“It is not that difficult. The answers are simple.”
Which is why the leftards have tried to establish the word “simplistic” as a conversation-stopper.
“a majority of them had child rape on their rap sheets”
And they’re still drawing the breath of life?
Things have gotten very, very bad.
“This is a good case for genetic eradication.”
Is there a child-rape gene?
“from my reading of the Bible, all injured will have to forgive the offending party before they can come before God for forgiveness.”
Where would that be?
Every perp in the rape, including the older female,
chop them all off. The guys’ junk and the older female’s junk.
When people complain about the police not stopping crime, they should see the percentage of those people that have been convicted of major crimes before. The criminal justice system is definitely a catch and release environment.
Quakers, right?
The execution of Karla Faye Tucker polarized public opinion around the world. Tucker, a former prostitute and drug addict, murdered two people in 1983 with a pickaxe. In prison, Tucker became a born again Christian, got her high school equivalency diploma, and eventually married the prison chaplain. Because of her dramatic transformation on death row, many, including supporters of the death penalty, called for her sentence to be commuted. After all her appeals were rejected, Tucker was executed by lethal injection. Her execution raises a difficult question: Should a criminal who repents be executed for her crimes? Both the Bible and the Talmud are clear that repentance changes divine judgement. The prophet Ezekiel (18:21-23) writes: "But if the wicked will turn from all the sins which he has committed, and keep all my statutes...he shall surely live, and shall not die...Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? Says the Lord, God; and not rather that he should return from his ways and live?". The Talmud (Kiddushin 40b) says that when a person repents, all previous sins are forgotten by God. Repentance has the ability to erase one's sins before God. While repentance can reverse divine judgement, it has less influence on human judgement. There are instances where penalties are changed or waived in order to facilitate repentance (Baba Kamma 66b; Rambam Gezielah 1:13). However, the Talmud (Makkot 13b) states that a criminal guilty of a capital crime is put to death, even if they have repented. Considering that in the divine court, a repentant person "shall surely live, and shall not die", why don't human courts follow God's example and grant clemency to repentant criminals? Four answers are given to this question. Some say (Maharal, Derech Chaim chapter 4) that there is a fundamental distinction between divine justice and mundane, human justice. Divine justice is based on a person's relationship with God. If a person has repaired his relationship with God through repentance, than he will be forgiven by God for his sins. In human courts, justice is based solely on past actions; therefore, no amount of repentance can change what has already been done. Another answer (Abrabanel Exodus 7:3) focuses on a deficiency in the murderer's repentance. Repentance for sins between man and his fellow man is not complete until the person wronged has forgiven the criminal for his sin (Yoma 85b). In a case of murder, it is impossible to do complete repentance, because it is impossible to receive forgiveness from the victim; the forgiveness of the victim's family is not enough. Considering this, it is impossible for a murderer to do complete repentance, and be forgiven. Others argue (Nodah BeYehuda OC I:35) that if we would allow repentant killers to avoid the death penalty, then everyone on death row would repent, and the death penalty would never be used. Without the death penalty, there would be less to deter future murders. In order to deter future murders from plaguing the community, we must execute all murderers, even if they have repented.
Since God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow, we err when imagining that all aspects of his law and nature have been passed away. Forgiveness in Judaic law depends upon asking and receiving it from the harmed party. Since a murderer, which is what I was really referencing, cannot ask for or receive forgiveness from the murdered, he cannot be forgiven until after his death, if even then. I know many people believe wrongly that all things taught before Jesus' birth, death and resurrection are no more, it is not true.
Yeshua came to FULFILL the law, not do away with it.
