Re: To kill or not to kill- HUNTLEY
In cases such as these I lose all my liberal tendancies and want the worst possible punishment for them. I could never support the death penalty just in case someone was wrongly convicted - for example the guy who they arrested for killing Jill Dando has now been acquited at a retrial. If the death penalty existed then he could have been dead by now.
However, if someone is guilty of killing someone and if they are in prison with suicidal tendancies, then i don't think we should be too worried if they choose to end their lives. I think that the best way would be allow them the means to commit suicide. I don't think they should be 'entertained' with scrabble, the internet etc to stop them feeling suicidal - let them get it over with.
