Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2004 Just announced that Peterson gets death as his parting prize. What a crock of shit. I understand that he did a terrible thing, but tell me how two wrongs makes a right here? Why let him off the hook with death instead of letting him be someone's girlfriend in prison for the rest of his life? I'm disgusted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spman 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2004 Im against the death penelty, it's too easy. I've always been an advocate of Alaskin slave labor camps for scumbags like Peterson. Dig hole, fill hole, repeat. 23 Hours a day for the rest of his life sounds about right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Failed Mascot Report post Posted December 13, 2004 Dig hole, fill hole, repeat. 23 Hours a day for the rest of his life sounds about right. That makes them all muscular though. Let them rot in solitary confinement for the rest of their life while being able to sit near a window for 30min a day to see a tree with a bird feeder on it. Also make the guard with the worst gas problems patrol that block of the prison. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2004 Unfortunately, it seems death is the easy option for the courts. I agree with Kahran on the situation. It should really be used in situatons where it's neccessetated...where there's no chance of rehabilitation and no way he can go near other humans without being a danger. Surely there's some way criminals of this nature can be put into slave labour, where it does someone good...rather than digging holes or breaking up rocks...that'd be more suited for him. In the 'rotting away slowly' type mould. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Cerebus Report post Posted December 13, 2004 First none of us were on the jury so we can't go declare a man guilty or innocent based on what the fucktards on CNN and Court TV feed us. Second, while this was a horrific crime, and I would say Peterson deserves life in prison and not death penalty since I'm personally against it, I find it funny that the only, and I mean ONLY, reason this is getting ANY media attention, let alone the huge circuis, is that the trio involved, Laci, Scott, and Scott's mistress, are all attractive people. If they all had the same level of looks as, say, Kevin Malton we would NEVER have heard of it. Even with the pregnancy angle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2004 Well ok. Enjoy death Scott. Luckily he'll have a few years of appeals so this is a moot point for now. Unless they rush him to the table, then it's just interesting. I'm not for the death penalty here...too many loose ends that weren't tied together. I'm for the death penalty in cases where there is no doubt...this has some doubt in my eyes. But oh well, time to inject the white boy I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd rather them be beheaded, and have the heads roll into one of 5 numbered holes so that the people can gamble on which hole the head will roll into. Either that, or have them shot out of a high-speed catapult....right into a brick wall!! It doesn't matter, as long as we balance the stupid fucking budget.

Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2004 Murderers deserve to die, period. Yeah, that's not at all hypocritical or anything. Jackass. I think in this day and age, if someone commits murder, they should be prepared to face death if they're found guilty. I don't support that, but it's still true. I agree that the death penalty should only be brought out for serial killers who have proven that they're likely to kill again. As big a piece of shit as Peterson is, I can't envision him being one of these people. But the death penalty for murder just seems so hypocritical. We were always taught that two wrongs don't make a right, but obviously in this country, that's not true at all. I just don't see the logic in killing someone as a punishment for killing someone. That'd be like legally being able to go burn down a convicted arson's house. I understand that we're dealing with life and death, and thus, views are to be fiercly opposing in some cases. But for the most part, I'm of the mindset that death is too easy of a way out. This case has proven that emotionally, Peterson is a terrible human being. Being sentenced to death isn't likely to change his demeanor. Being sentenced to life without possibility of parole probably wouldn't, either, but I think I'd rather be dead than being a pretty boy spending the rest of my life making 13 cents an hour and spooning with Tyrone every night after lockdown.
