Nah, Execution wouldnt be much of a penalty for those souless dogs. Take all their assets and their immediate family assets away, distribute evenly to employees (or former) of the company they robbed, and set a Law to prevent them from ever being able to work for anything other than Minimum wage the rest of their lives.

and to all, the death penalty as it is currently applied does not deter the worst of crimes, since it is not applied to the corrupt politicians and businessmen, who so rob the economy that some of the murders committed are poverty driven. Lets also go after the Enrons and the wall street thieves, and anyone whose financial corruption is greater than or equal to equal to a full coverage life insurance payout for one person's murder.

Yeah, i dont agree with the rotten lying hypocritical hate filled sack of *** republicans, on most issues. But one thing i dont like is the ACLU's "humane treatment" of people who have committed so foul of crimes that they are being put to death.
Just shoot em in the forehead, cremate them, and hand their families the ashes, or put them in the dump. They dont deserve any dignity, honor or perks at our expense as taxpayers.
Thats another thing.
We need to cut down the time and appeals and costs of incarcerating known criminals.
It costs more to house a prisoner for a year than i make being an honest citizen working hard at a technical job that requires a degree.

To itwasntme000, I like the pay-per-view angle, but you have to get the cameras close enough to get all the gory details. As for Bush, one pay per view wouldn't generate enough to cover all the victims' families, unless you go world-wide, and do it two at a time, first Rice, and Powell, then Wolfie and Schultz, then Cheney and Novak, with Bush and his love doll bin Laden as the season finale.

To all liberals upset by the execution of Christopher Newton.

I know how to make you feel better

Don't consider it an execution, instead, just "Visualize" that Chris Newton was a cute little baby, and the only thing Ohio did was perform a late-term abortion.

That should ease your liberal concious's.

brianbwb Or make it a pay per view and give some money to the victum of the murders family. Heck lets let bush and his administration star in the first season. Its bound to be a hit. We could even empty out the iraq prisons and throw them on an island with bush and his crones.

knyghtwolf umm that is a horrible idea. sounds painfull. Why not bring back the guillotine?? or the firing squad... or if the victums family chooses 3 baseball bats and 5 minutes.

Here's a morbidly humorous idea, put the real death row inmates on an island, far from any other land, surrounded by sharks. Air drop almost enough food to live for each week. Put TV cameras everywhere, hire Don Imus to be color commentator, you will have a guaranteed ratings monster, probably forever. Hell, even I'd watch occasionally...

This would fit just fine with the CBS current lineup of crime and reality shows. I mean the highest rated shows are those where the person who cheats, lies, manipulates and steals are the winner. Survivor and now the Pirate Master, advertise the cheating and stealing and manipulating to win.

I'm all for dumping the death row inmates on an island, let's call that island Mars just for kicks.

The reality is that court costs make capital punishment vastly more expensive than life in prison. That's a mathematical fact; look it up.
