Its Shria law.................. it never makes sense to those of us that are civilized.
Eye for an Eye, worked well in the time of Hammurabi, 3000 years ago. It still looks like it would work well in theory, but in practice its just not practical.Originally posted by FusionIf a car is the epitome of freedom, than an electric car is house arrest with your wife titty fucking your next door neighbor.

For the worst of all offenders, yes I too support Capital punishment. But the conditions that go with it need to be narrow.Originally posted by FusionIf a car is the epitome of freedom, than an electric car is house arrest with your wife titty fucking your next door neighbor.

was this man in fear of his life and bust out the knife to try and save it??????
Was this guy just jumped?????
I mean there are tons of possibility and circumstances to consider and with out knowing them its really kinda a moot discussion. Just cuz he pulled the knife and stabbed this dude, does no make him wrong.Originally posted by FusionIf a car is the epitome of freedom, than an electric car is house arrest with your wife titty fucking your next door neighbor.

I would hate to see someone have an eye for an eye applied for something he did that was a true accident.
Even some purposeful things there would have to be an out. Like self defense.Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.

Eye for an eye basically means that you can't ask for an arm to be cut off if you just had your finger severed. It doesn't mean you have to ask for an eye for an eye, just that you can't ask for more than what is fair.

the scariest aspect of things like this is that there's no going back, it's permanent. So much for the appeals process! A lot of cases aren't totally cut an dry like that.
If it was more like, some dude raped 14 women or got busted stealing shit for the 10th time, then maybe some draconian law is justified.
Fallout from a street fight is just too hairy of a situation to be doing this.. like you guys said we don't know who started it, etc.sigpic
