<p>Don't you think criminals should get a taste of their own medicine? If they kill someone, they should be killed. If they beat someone up, the same should happen to them. What do you guys think? I only think the punishment should fit the crime so criminals know the wrongs they have committed.</p>
<p>No ~</p>
<p>How do you punish serial killers? You only get to do it once <.<</p>
<p>No. 1% of all Americans are in jail. To many people are in jail and the punishment for petty crimes is way to high. If you want to smoke crack or do heroine, its your body,why does anybody care. I certainly don't.</p>
<p>Or TheBlackLantern.</p>
<p>What if you are wrongly accused of a murder, it happens frequently. Should you be tortured or killed.</p>
<p>^ the end talking section of lil wayne's misunderstood off tha carter iii addresses that pretty well actually. people getting life with no parole for schedule i drugs, and sex offenders are getting a slap on the wrist...</p>
<p>shoot i think they should sell all drugs in vending machines or otc. Pharmacists are useless. I hold human understanding to a higher level then most. I believe everybody should try and learn as much as possible about everything.</p>
<p>^ i agree, the drugs should be legal, but penalties for driving under the influence, domestic violence, and the like should come with MUCH stiffer punishments.</p>
<p>"shoot i think they should sell all drugs in vending machines or otc. I hold human understanding to a higher level then most."</p>
<p>Legal drugs? In vending machines? Do you realize that children and teenagers (for the most part) don't understand the repercussions of using drugs? Don't hold human understanding to a higher level. Some people simply don't have enough education to know the addictive effects of drugs, and some might have psychological problems that impair their judgment. We can't control for these things.</p>
<p>Wait...Dr. Horse, you were the one I was discussing US medicine with. Great.</p>
<p>Legalizing marijuana and maybe cocaine would effectively suppress the "war on drugs" and bring much needed tax revenue (if we highly tax those substances). It would also get rid of millions of criminal records.</p>
<p>Surveys have shown that most college students have tried marijuana at one point or another, so the situation is not going to be much worse that it already is.</p>
<p>Yes legal drugs such as heroine and Meth in a vending machine next to snickers and star burst.</p>
<p>Kids and Teens, um what happened to there parents? Oh yeah I forgot, the job of parent doesn't exist in today's society anymore. We instead allow the govt to be the parent and everything the child learns is from a teacher, whom are usually idiots themselves. Then we wonder why we have so many social problems, which the govt again just try's to fix. hopeless cycle.</p>
<p>Information in a industrialized state is more than abundant. So in that there is no excuse for lack of human understanding. People choose to be idiots in which i hold no excuse. If you put the danger back into the world, people will wake up, you can only do so much until you start making idiots. </p>
<p>What do we need Pharmacists for? I see no reason when people can just learn pharmacology themselves. </p>
<p>Same goes for any job/profession. </p>
<p>Not being educated is no excuse.</p>
<p>"Their" parents have jobs. "Their" parents can't walk these kids around on a leash all day. Would you like to be walked on a leash, Dr. Horse? When you say that information is abundant, of course you mean middle-to-upper class people who can afford computers, TVs, radios, etc. Not everyone can. Not everyone knows about the detrimental effects of drugs. It may seem obvious to you, but it isn't so for everyone. I personally believe in capital punishment for the sale/distribution of any illegal drugs, and forced rehab for drug use. Of course, nothing like this will ever pass in the US, but I still think that it's the most logical solution.</p>
<p>"Same goes for any job/profession. "</p>
<p>Let's get rid of doctors as well, so Dr. Horse can do his own brain surgery if he ever happens to get cancer. Oh, and scientists. And engineers. Yeah, those things can be learned in a year anyways, so why don't we need "professionals" to tell us what to do?</p>
<p>Your points are ridiculous, Dr. Horse. The more I talk to you, the more I realize that you either hold views too radical for my understanding, or you are simply a troll getting a good laugh out of all of this.</p>
<p>That's what I don't particularly like discussing anything online. I can't see the faces of the people I'm arguing with.</p>

are you serious? so capital punishment for selling A PLANT, and the pervert that likes touching 5 year old boys gets 10 years, and is out in 6. </p>
<p>amazing system you're planning there</p>
<p>i believe in capital punishment for gangsters. prisons are getting overpopulated by trash and our taxes are going to the prison systems in order to clothe and feed these filth. what a waste of money.</p>
<p>how does that fit into your "I only think the punishment should fit the crime so criminals know the wrongs they have committed." idea?</p>
<p>"are you serious? so capital punishment for selling A PLANT, and the pervert that likes touching 5 year old boys gets 10 years, and is out in 6. "</p>
<p>Never said anything about pedophiles. Re-read my posts, please. I believe in more serious punishment for all crimes, but in the case of drug dealing, capital punishment would be more of a deterrent.</p>

<p>Parents don't have to walk kids around on leash they just need to parent correctly. Do there Jobs. There are a ton of drugs where I live, my dad is a druggie and left our family when i was 3. My mother actually did her job and now in 23 and have never even drank alcohol yet smoked a cigarette. Though there are drugs around me everywhere. I still went outside and did evrything normal kids and teens do. I was just raised better.</p>
<p>Information is abundant and it has nothing to do with class. Public Libraries, Universities, local schools all will provide information as well as materials like books for free. Libraries are everywhere, people just don't use them.</p>
<p>People who want to remain ignorant they deserve the consequences. sorry. I have no sympathy on people who choose to be ignorant.</p>

<p>yeah now your getting it. We can still have professionals, nobody is saying we cant. But there is nothing stopping a person from having the same knowledge as a doctor or engineer. Books are books. They don't have access to special materials, that the public doesn't. you simply embrace human ignorance, i refuse to. </p>
<p>Do you think prohibition stopped alcohol. Nope and nothing even capital punishment will stop people from capitalizing on the weak ignorant drug addicts.</p>
<p>^ prohibition wasnt strongly enforced, especially in the north and in the cities. capital punishment is the ultimate punishment one can receive. if people were executed for drinking alcohol during prohibition i am sure it would have worked.</p>
<p>It's cheaper to kill them instead of keeping them alive at the expense of the government. Any murderer/rapist should be executed. The End.</p>
