Teacher stabbed to death at Leeds school

That's not feasible cos it will have been the system that got it wrong not the people..for example you can't blame the jury if the evidence was compelling yet subsequently proven to have been incorrect.

 

One issue with juries is that they are less likely to return a guilty verdict if they know that the accused would face the death penalty..and you can't excuse people from jury duty just cos they are against the death penalty

 

Compelling isnt enough.

You may kill/slaughter animals but you cant murder them

[geosname]

Yes. Murder is the worst.

 

Wouldnt you consider genocide as being worse?

[Robbie Earle's Perm]

Can't agree with that..we aren't barbarians..but they should lose some/most

 

What would you leave them with?

Killing one or more is the same thing for me.

Of course you can, killing for 'fun' is murder.

[Robbie Earle's Perm]

There is and always will be doubt... the jury thought there was no doubt in the derek bentley case... they thought the same about timothy evens.

What happened at Belsen, Dachau, Treblinka, Sobibór, Auschwitz Majdanek etc were atrocities... albert fish committed atrocities, children tortured, killed, dismembered and eaten... as tragic as this incident is it isnt atrocious.

 

Its an atrocious and sub-human act.

How many people have been charged with murdering animals?

[geosname]

Its an atrocious and sub-human act.

 

Murder is not sub human... only humans do it and is the oldest crime, dating back to Cain and Abel

Genocide isnt like murder at all.

Engineering the destruction of an entire people is on a different scale to murder.

Whilst I can't agree that watching violent films or playing violent games makes you want to go and repeat those actions, there's no doubt in my mind that surrounding yourself with day-to-day 'manufactured' violence can desensitize an individual to the extent where gradually they can become almost immune to it, and see these barbaric actions as less of a 'big deal'.

Compelling isnt enough.

 

Alright the evidence of guilt was enough for them to justifiably return a guilty verdict; if new evidence emerged or some of that evidence was subsequently proven to have been wrong or even deliberately false the jurors cannot be blamed for making an honest decison based on the evidence presented to them..no more than if they find someone not guilty who is guilty

[JOHNNYAITCH]

What would you leave them with?

 

 

Well I can't quote specifc rights as defined in law but I'd not allow torture nor forced medical experimentation for example

[JOHNNYAITCH]

Killing one or more is the same thing for me.

 

Genocide does not have to involve killing/murder

 

However genocide that does involve murder could be seen as worse due to the motives behind it

Murder is the unlawful killing, with malice aforethought, of another human..killng an animal is never murder
