[QUOTE=Hog1;330558]Do you remember if you did any compare on apple to apples like comparison? Such as NY and Cal (but they don't have the DP, I don't think)??[/QUOTE]

It would be hard to compare any states, they are all so different and have vastly different inhabitants.

I don't believe I did.

I was basically looking at Megaopolis v. Megaopolis. Like L.A. v. NYC

Wow, that would be even harder cause it's the state that executes, not the city. I wonder if they even have those kinds of stats?

I would be very interested in those stats too though.

[QUOTE=jsarno;330522]Did I say that?
Nothing like taking a post out of context eh?

ps- we used to have public hangings here in the good ole USA.[/QUOTE]

My only point was that we shouldn't emulate countries that cut the hands off of low-level criminals. I also simply cannot agree with the whole public hangings deal.

That's cool...I understand if you can't agree.
I just feel we need to do something about all these issues, and it seems crimes are getting worse / more frequent.

Yeah. Sex offenders in particular need [I]much[/I] harsher sentences. I'm so tired of reading articles in my newspaper about sex offenders with 2 or 3 priors who raped and/or murdered some girl. I'd actually be for lopping off manhoods for certain sex crimes. See....we have some common ground.

LOL...then you must have liked my comment about allowing the victims family to go into a room with the guy and no rules apply, they carry out their own justice. If the man comes out dead, then so be it.

Yes, I agree 110%. People may say that taking someones life will not justify what that person has done, bullshit...
I have a son (7) and two girls (1) & (3) and I know for a fact that I would want nothing more than to kill anyone that would hurt my children like that. PERIOD!!!

About 6 months ago a guy, who only lives down the street from me, was convicted of over 52 sex acts commitied to a 6 year old boy. In my own personal opinion that man should not be alowed to live anymore. That grown man may not have murdered the boy but he just might as well have. I am sure when you are that young and something that dramatic happens to you, it will f*ck your head up...

Absolutely...that kid will be messed up for life now. His whole family should be allowed to go into a room with this guy for a few hours, and pull toe nails, cut off wiener...whatever they want. If we had that kind of judicial system, then these crazy sick acts might not take place as frequently.

Re: Ted Nugent on Gun Control
 

That is also why I am glad that the second admendment holds true today. Like I said the guy only lived minutes away from my house. I don't know if he would come into my house and try to get one of my children but knowing that if anyone would try, I am alowed to have a form of defense to protect my family...

In New Mexico, you are legally allowed to kill a man that intrudes in your house. If you put a bullet in his spine, he can sue, so you need to kill him if you pull the trigger. I like that law.

Re: Ted Nugent on Gun Control
 

[quote=JoeRedskin;330512]No, I got your point and then used the rhetorical tool of hyperbole to demonstrate the absurdity of it if carried to its logical extreme.

I understand your point - You have a right to carry guns. My point is that the public has the right to regulate inherently dangerous things such as guns.[/quote]

What your are failing to realize is that when you regulate guns you are only regulating the Law obiding citizens. If I guy wants to use a gun [B]against[/B] the [B]law[/B], then a [B]Reulation [/B]or a [B]Law[/B] is certainly not going to stop him. All your gun laws do is hinder me "the honest law obiding buyer" from attaining one.

Bye the way you are not the only one with children. I would never be packing anywhere near where children are playing. Will I cary one with me in downtown D.C. You are dog on right I will.

If anything ever escalated to a point where I were going to pull out a gun, the only way that person would leave would be in a body bag...especially if it was in my home. There won't be any chance for retaliation. If/when I buy a gun, it will be kept in my home and if my home is ever invaded and I feel I need to get my gun, it's probably going to have to be me or them. No chance I wave around a gun with no intention of using after you've broken into my home...none.
