DaemonFCsomething is terribly wrong if the prosecutor doesn't seek the death sentence with HasanNov 11 21:50
DaemonFCour "justice" system is pretty hit or miss anywayNov 11 21:50
DaemonFCsome people just get a long prison sentence for crimes more heinous than others get put to death forNov 11 21:51
DaemonFCa lot of it comes from prosecutors that are quick to sign a plea bargain of lesser crimes to get a quick convictionNov 11 21:52
DaemonFClike that black kid that gunned down his teacher and they reduced it to second degree murderNov 11 21:53
DaemonFCeven though he obviously planned itNov 11 21:53
DaemonFCthey abuse the categories of murder all the timeNov 11 21:53
ender2070tessier - tyNov 11 21:53
DaemonFCsecond degree should only be for unplanned murder, like you walk in and your wife is in bed with another manNov 11 21:54
DaemonFCfirst degree would be if you went out and bought a gun and planned how you would kill your wife later with itNov 11 21:54
tessierI'm not a big fan of the death penalty anymore.Nov 11 21:54
DaemonFCthey should ban plea agreementsNov 11 21:54

ender2070two wrongs dont make a rightNov 11 21:55
DaemonFCI think it should be applied a lot more oftenNov 11 21:55
tessierPlea agreements are useful in preventing other crimes, prosecuting others, and getting valuable cooperation.Nov 11 21:55
DaemonFCany case where it's first degree murder, the death penalty should be what they seekNov 11 21:55
ender2070the death penalty is 100% wrongNov 11 21:55
DaemonFCtessier, plea agreements are just what bad prosecutors use to secure a quick convictionNov 11 21:55
DaemonFCeven if the person involved is a monster agreeing to a wrist slapNov 11 21:56

tessierToo many convictions overturned on DNA for my liking.Nov 11 21:57

ender2070i do tooNov 11 22:03
DaemonFCthe feminists think thatNov 11 22:03
ender2070some people use their cause as a sword, is what im sayingNov 11 22:04
DaemonFCthe Feminazi, however, thinks women should trample men's rightsNov 11 22:04
DaemonFCthey believe women (womyn) are superior to menNov 11 22:04
tessierSuch women are so few that I don't know why you care.Nov 11 22:04
DaemonFCthere's a big difference between the Feminist and the FeminaziNov 11 22:04
DaemonFCtessier, That Feminazi prosecutor condemned 17 innocent menNov 11 22:04
DaemonFCso they pop up often enough to hurt a lot of peopleNov 11 22:05

DaemonFCthe judge and jury only go on what evidence the prosecution bringsNov 11 22:05
tessierThe prosecutor alone does not decide fate.Nov 11 22:05
DaemonFCand even if there is one biased member in the jury, there's 11 more who aren'tNov 11 22:05
tessierThe judge is supposed to make sure the evidence is proper to be admissable.Nov 11 22:05
ender2070you know how many prosecuters wish that were trueNov 11 22:05
DaemonFCso even if I was selected as a juror and I hated women (theoretical) and I voted that they were guilty, and they obviously were notNov 11 22:06
DaemonFCit would be 11-1 Not GuiltyNov 11 22:06
DaemonFCso a biased juror can do a lot less damage than a biased prosecutorNov 11 22:06
DaemonFCcause the prosecutor can string the jury along and the judge tooNov 11 22:06

ender2070<--canadianNov 11 22:07
DaemonFCender2070, You have to have a unanimous vote to get the death penaltyNov 11 22:08
DaemonFCbut you only need a simple majority to convict or decide other punishmentsNov 11 22:08
DaemonFCso lots of prosecutors don't even go for the death penaltyNov 11 22:09
