Re: Countries with the death penalty
I just copied and pasted the list off a quick google search, but something I watched on the Colber Report made me laugh and think of it. The list could be incomlete/wrong, but i'm pretty sure the US is the only western nation with the death penalty.

I'm not sure about the only Western nation, but only industrialized nation. Of course, everyone else is just a liberal pussy.

Look at the list again... I'm not opposed nor for death penalty really which is a bit of a shift. I used to be very for the death penalty. Now, with the way that it is doled out seems inconsistent with a deterent effect. The fact that Tookie William can live on Death Row for 25 years is amazing to me. -Gryph |

Maybe I meant industrialized Western nations. I'm not sure, I've been awake for way too long. Also, the death penalty has never had a deterrent effect, of that I'm sure. |

Yep sounds about right, but it's kinda our culture. Right, wrong, or indifferent, it's really who we are, or at least where we came from.
