[quote=ERENCIUS,248856]Quote: "The father should be put into prison and executed." Many statistics show that death penalty is not a good deterent anyway (god is another problem), and, personaly If someone did something bad, I think it will be much harder for him to face what he did for years alone in his cell... Most of the time death penalty is absurd. Though prison shall not be a place you just abandon people. You shall make it possible for them to reintegrate the society if they are about to finish their prison term. Prison shall educate people also not only punish them. That's the only way to make people better (except they have mental diseases, in this case they shall be watched over during all their life). This topic evokes two things to me, one is laudable the other is just awful. I m talking about euthanasia and eugenics. The first is an act of compassion for someone who is suffering and whose life pronostic is really pesimistic. I think this shall be allowed especially if the person asks for it but it shall be framed using law (to limit the cases it can be applied, not favouring abuses: to inherit for example). It is difficult to decide, but in this case we shall not be selfish. Keeping someone alive while he shall already be dead just because we cannot come to grips with his abscence is a bit criminal in a way. Eugenics is a method improving genetic qualities by selective breeding (clearly it means to kill those who are not "normal", the nazi regime practised it for example). For a man affected by mental disease is not responsible of the acts he commits, he cannot be punished as a normal person, even if he kills someone (he doesn t understand what he did anyway). So killing him just because he is different or thought as potentially dangerous is a discriminative practise that shall be heavily punished especially since it is a murder (no need, though, to lower oneself to commit the same crime as the one who shall be punished). The only legally acceptable solution is to put him in a special hospital for the rest of his life. Never forget punishements were first invented to solve the problem of behaviour inside a society. The reason of it is that the behaviour is not suitable for the life in society, but the sentence shall be linked with the crime, of course, but also with the person. It shall not just be objective (the crime= this sentence), it shall take into account some subjective data to reevaluate the judgment.[/quote]
