The Boston Marathon Bombing

At that point they have given up their right to live in society permanently. The only remaining question is - "what's the cheapest way to deal with them?"

And life in prison is cheaper than execution.

I prefer the cheaper route.

The cheaper one is execution for the criminal will not live that long to have the taxpayers pay their upkeep for 30 to 60 years or more. Imagine all the hospital expenses, medicines, security guards pay and other things that must be paid for if those criminals are given life sentences. You'd rather pay millions to keep them alive until they die in prison? Tell me why?
 
Well Romans were a bit like modern American Republicans in some respects, barbarism is something the other guy always does; it never applies to them.
 
Last I saw on TV was that they had no leads whatsoever, next thing they killed one suspect and shot the other to barely living pieces. I missed what happened in between. How did they catch them?
A short version of the happenings would be appreciated :).
 
Also you guys heard of the Texas explosion or did you miss it? As I can't see any thread for it.
 
So is barbarity. The Romans fell for a variety of reasons; strongly among them was the leaving of barbarity only to the other side.

Speaking of barbarity, recently in Iran there was the public hanging of a kidnapper and rapist. I think only murder deserves the death penalty, not other crimes. In Southeast Asia you can be executed for drug smuggling.

In Saudi Arabia this man who hacked his friend in the back was gonna get a surgical procedure to paralyse him. An eye for an eye. I think it's actually a better form of punishment than a prison sentence.
 
Today they're saying that Dzjochar has revealed that they originally intended to do a suicide bombing on the 4th of July, but changed their plans because the bombs were ready earlier.
The placement of the bombs seems random, they were driving around the city and decided to place them at the finish line and then detonated them from a safe distance with cellphones.

You think surgically paralysing someone is preferable to a prison sentence?
 
You think surgically paralysing someone is preferable to a prison sentence?

To whom? To the criminal? Of course not. :D

But at least he gets a taste of his own medicine, and he is able to realize the seriousness and effects of his actions. Too late by then, but perhaps people should learn. That actions have serious consequences and if you inflict grievous hurt it is also too late for the victim.


The major drawback is the debate over the rightful way in which to implement this.

Not cell phones, remote control radios from the hobby store.
 
The already put rapists together with the biggest black inmates. ;)

And lots of soap.

"black inmates"? That`s uncool dude. If you're going to make bigoted remarks on this site, they'd better be about muslims or jews.
