Oh, really? Murder has ceased in area where capital punoshment is in effect?
I wasnt aware of that.

***yea!  Strawman alert!  No one said it prevented ALL murders. But that is
not the same being a preventative factor, is it?

I'm talking about the thousands of years of evidence which shows that
capital punishment doesn't prevent murder.

**totally?  Nope, and good thing that neither Mike or I have made that
claim.

It has? Well, please link to those studies. I'd be pleased to review them.

**dig em up tomorrow.  Or google it, if you actually care about the answer.
Frankly why bother linking when you have your mind made up.

What is sad about me? The fact that I give a shit about the 45 people
who've been murdered this year? That's sad to you, is it?

**no, the fact you dump such stupid rhetoric with a straight face.

**To equate murder with execution is boggling.  I can only assume you never
had a friend murdered.

**I have.  maybe that makes me a son of a bitch, but oh well.

Well, that's a marvelous story. I'm not sure what it has to do with
anything we're talking about, but if it distracts you from the issue
at hand, fair enough.


**self defense prevents murder.

Excellent point. I'll take it under consideration.

(Oh, wait... my level of annoying has nothing to do with fact or
fiction, right or wrong, does it? Nevermind, then. I guess your
position will be held to account, after all.)

**No I am tired of you judging me as contemptible.

Nope. quote all you like. Just make a case of it, that's all.

**Fine.  The bible condemns a murdered to death.  Done.  Don’t tell me I am
contemptible.

> **Hypocriyte.

Sticks and stones, my friend.

**Not really but whatever.
