Boston Marathon bomber sentenced to death

So chicken is available then? Pesumably fish also? Tuna and sardines perhaps? If we assume though that the oceans dry up, and an ELE drives chicken to the fossil records, and other meat becomes too expensive then I suppose a suitable vegetarian option should be put forward.

Chicken is available but if you eat it too often you will die … you know those killer bacteria that comes with chicken …

Nahhh … fish is too expensive. Tuna not environmental friendly but what the hell do you lot like canned tuna I don’t know. That thing is disgusting. Sardines is fine but like chicken you will get bored with it if you eat them often and besides sardine is meant for other larger sea creatures to eat so don’t compete with them or they starved.

Vegetarian is fine so long as you feed them boiled cabbages. See how long they last before they puke.

I’m pretty moderate, but the world can do without the likes of Tsarnaev.

“The 8-year-old boy killed in the Boston Marathon bombing appeared to reach for his mother in the final, grueling moments of his life, court testimony revealed Thursday.

Footage from the terror attack shows a small blurry figure, believed to be young Martin Richard, raising his hands right after the second blast near the marathon’s finish line, Boston.com reported. The harrowing video, which had already been shown in the court, was used again Thursday, the final day of prosecutors’ arguments against convicted bomber Dzokhar Tsarnaev.

Richard, who was standing less than four feet from a bomb, was the youngest of the three people killed in the attack that also injured more than 260. A trauma surgeon from Massachusetts General Hospital who previously testified in the trial said Martin most likely suffered severe pain in the last moments of his life.

Survivor Stephen Woolfenden, the prosecution’s final witness, said he saw Richard’s eyes “rolled back in his head” after the explosions and put his hand on the back of the boy’s mother, Denise, to comfort her.”

Hard labour for 20 years then the death penalty if not rehabilitated.

Revenge or punishment?

Difficult to say after reading the above, poor lad and yes if it was our child we’d want the worst possible punishment but death?

Is the prisoner insane?

Can of worms.

Hopefully they’ll botch his execution and he’ll suffer a prolonged and agonising death.

Trails that involve the likelihood of the death penalty are by their very nature the ones where the crimes are most harrowing. It was awful to read the account of that poor young lad, how horrific and terrifying his final moments must have been.

Still don’t believe in the death penalty, and only 20% of the people that live in Boston believe in it either. My hopes are that this is overturned and he spends a long time reflecting on his life in a small locked room far away from the rest of civilisation.

This makes you as bad as the bomber. Utterly foul.

Blood eagle. Far more elegant

Why do you hope for that?

The 8-year-old boy killed in the Boston Marathon bombing…

You’ve been nobbled by the prosecution, Ben.

Can of worms.

We’d need to check with chewkw where that would sit in the cost/ant-religion effectiveness table. Is a can of worms more or less than bacon/pork? Less than turkey but more than chicken?

This makes you as bad as the bomber

Yes dear, you’re quite right.

“killing people is bad. Anyone who does it should be killed”

Way to go U.S.A. 🙄

“killing people is bad. Anyone who does it should be killed”

Way to go U.S.A.
“Imprisoning people is bad. Anyone who does it should be imprisoned.

Way to go everyone. 🙄

Nahhh … You are being cruel to the birds and animals by feeding him precious worm. He is not worth the can of worms to be honest. Turkey? In his dream.

Pork or bacon is better but you can always feed him pork rind first to let him know the power of pork rind. This is to show him heaven is pork rind on earth!

I love pork rind me.

I’d rather die than spend the rest of my life in one of those super max prisons.

Will he be served pudding with his last meal ?

I was watching the documentaries on those on life sentence behind bars but somehow they seem to manage to endure their time there and very determine too …

You need to check the ingredient first …
Also unless he asked for that as his last meal.

An eye for an eye leaves everyone blind.

Doesn’t matter how hideous the crime, there’s no place for the death penalty in a civilised society.

I keep hearing this ‘an eye for an eye thing …’

How can everyone get blinded if they have one eye left? Really.

Also do you always go for the eye? Can’t you go for an arm for a leg vice versa?

Furthermore how can everyone(who is not involved) get blinded if s/he is not involved?

😮

Some of the comments on this thread scare me quite a bit.

Some people do horrible things. The rest of us need to be better than that.

This is correct:

Doesn’t matter how hideous the crime, there’s no place for the death penalty in a civilised society.

I read this rather concerning line on the BBC site.

The jurors were chosen, however, because they said they would be willing to consider the death penalty.

Doesn’t really seem like a fair trial to me if that comment is accurate.

Whenever I see a post by chewk on a thread I have to stop reading the thread. The illiterate, unintelligible dribble just destroys any meaningful discourse.

My colleage who is highly intelligent wants UK to be part of the “53 states” which puzzle me coz he is from London.

😆 I am merely providing alternative views isn’t that part of a discourse?

Okay folks I have just been warned by the mod(s) regarding my comments so I shall comply.

I shall leave this thread in your good hands now so over to you.

If you are hurt by my comments then my apology.

Cheerio

😛

Jury selection. Those who object to the death penalty per se will be objected to by the prosecution. San outrage.

Banning isnt good enough for him can the mods not force him to spend a day in a mosque praying andcthe execute him?

Death penalty has, and will always divide opinion.

If my comments have hurt your feelings then please accept my apology.

Apology accepted.

At least for as long as there are moral hypocrites.

Peoples morals may not align with your own, but it doesn’t make either arguement favourable

I’ve got no respect for a judicial system that deals in revenge killings.

Say the prison budget only allow pork then the rational is to treat everyone equal with no special treatment is that not so?

Don’t know myself about US prisons but do any of you know what the UK prison budget is for food, per prisoner, per day?

Go on have a guess, nearest gets a bacon sandwich. 😉

& by the way, I believe in the death penalty for such hideous atrocities as this.

I hope whatever it is, it excludes pudding.

I would guess £1.50 to £2.00 max. It would be silly if they spend more.

My food bill is £20 per week (7 days) and this include meat, veg, bread, fruits and fish but exclude pork rind … 🙁 (well I only pork rind every other week )

Now my food bill will go down further once I have perfected my veg fermentation … Korean style.

If I win I don’t want bacon sandwish … you can send me a cheque for £2.50 for Polish smoked fish or I can get a bag of pork rind.

That’s not really what’s being discussed, though. You’ve omitted to consider the hypocrisy of the situation:

…one may not take the life of a person. The punishment for people who do this is for us (society) to take the life of that person.

It’s ‘do as I say not as I do’. It’s hypocrisy. It’s also a sign that the society who makes the law is singularly violent in its resolution of moral judgements, which is exactly what the perpetrator of the Boston bomb was. As P-Jay says, it’s really little more than a revenge killing and shows that the ‘society’ that carried it out is both philosophically retarded and impotent. No surprise it’s so angry, then! In killing Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the US is simply (in a rather complex way) reaffirming the components that are desirable in constructing their social fabric; the blanket that ‘it’ wishes its constituents to live under.

The jurors were chosen, however, because they said they would be willing to consider the death penalty.

Maybe they all secretly oppose the death penalty. If I was asked to be a juror I’d definitely lie to be able to possibly save a life.

EDIT: what am I talking about, he was condemned. D’oh.

…one may not take the life of a person. The punishment for people who do this is for us (society) to take the life of that person.

You have missed out quite an important bit.

The bit about killing random innocent people by bombing a crowd.

You don’t have to be morally hypocritical to believe in the death penalty as you claimed. You just need to be able to see the difference between two entirely different types of situation.

You don’t seem capable of doing that, possibly because it suits your personal views to miss the obvious difference.

I hope whatever it is, it excludes pudding.

Actually includes pudding (& a ‘tea pack’ which consists of a bag of cereal, some tea bags, sugar, whitener & a small carton of UHT milk)
