Overcrowded prisons solution?

[bennett211085]

The death sentence?

So why the hell did this country ged rid of it? Our prisons are overcrowded everywhere and our tax money goes to waste looking after rapists and murderers until they die in prison. Why should people with no respect for human rights laws be given human rights, surely once they cross that line their human rights should be void?. It makes me angry to watch our country slowly grind itself into the ground because its run by people that have no real idea what they are doing. Can't deal with drug addicts repeat offending for petty crime to feed their habit so we put them in in a cell on with other addicts and access to a plentiful supply of smack (and free food and shelter). And then we send pensioners to prison for not paying their huge council tax bills.

Prisoners get treated too nicely, who cares if they have more people crammed into the cells??

I meen they have no respect for peoples human rights, why should theres all be considered??

I have an idea!

Maybe we should build more prisons!

There is absolutely no way this country could cope with the death sentence.

We gave the police a tiny ounce of power after the 7th July bombings, "yes if he's a terrorist shoot him" and what happened? The only guy we shot was completely innocent.

The sheer number of innocent people that would die is enough not to introduce it.

Maybe we should should just dump the worlds worst offenders on an island somewhere and let them fight it out there, or hunt them for sport.

[Mudskipper]

Send them to Australia, like we used to.

I think one of the reasons why the death penalty shouldn’t come back, is the bissies will do almost anything to get a conviction (crime statistics and all), however there is dna now a days, which is pretty much fool proof, so there is another argument for it

As for the over crowding of prisons go, well what options do you have only one, more prisons, but fairly unpractical (due to cost) unless it was funded in part by the government, and say every £1.00 in £5.00 of profit from the national lottery went to also subsidise it, just an idea

But the real way to cure overcrowding is to stop the problem before it becomes a problem,

Sorry to say this, although I was not alive at the time, but national service would be a good the answer, proper discipline for the modern day youth, let’s face it they have it a darnce site easier nowadays, and my honest opinion is that they have to many rights, you cant even shot someone that tries to robs you of you own property on your own land

I know there are a lot of young people on here, and this is not aimed at the hard working youth of today, but the takers and not the givers

Please don’t use drugs as an excuse; there is plenty of help out there for them too

Ok, serious head on here.

Imagine one of you advocates of the death penalty meet a nice girl at a club. You get lucky, say your goodbyes the following morning.

Next thing, coppers are at your door, you're in a paper suit, charged with rape.

Imagine if, despite your innocence, you were convicted of rape.

You become the scum that people like yourself want to send to the chair or into some rat-infested prison hole with zero rights. Cause you're a sick rapist bastard, aren't you?

Another scenario, a vague acquaintence turns violent one day, tries to snap your head off. You manage to push him away, but he falls oddly and breaks his neck.

As bad luck would have it, there is some history (he owes you money, or something). You are stitched up, you have no witnesses to back your story, he has no previous violent behaviour.

You are sent down, you are murdering scum and deserve the chair or to be dumped on a prison island.

Just a couple of scenarios for you to think about. All the forensic evidence in the world can't prevent miscarriages of justice.

That's why I will never favour a death penalty.

Yeah but that kind of thing is down to the jury to consider:
does the suspect have previous criminal record of this sort of behaviour, rape, violence, etc.

[st3v3]

That my friend, is a whole new kettle of fish.
Prisons should be built on a desolate island actually, and heavily guarded.
