Absolutely ludicrous that he even had the nerve to try and sue for compensation. Fortunately, common sense prevailed and no solicitor would represent the piece of scum. | | | |

Because the death penalty is barbaric and a civilised society shouldn't seek to sink to the level of its criminals. | |

Because that would be too easy, ideally they will be slipping on a bad of soap in the shower, or the occasional beating up by a guard.. | | | |

Really? I agree for circumstances when they is the possibility of mistaken identity, but when someone innocent is hacked to death in such a barbaric way then I believe it should be re-introduced. Would you still feel the same way if one of your relations or close friends was brutally murdered in cold blood like poor Lee Rigby? | | | |

I know a couple of prison guards and I can happily report these two cretins get regular kickings from inmates. | | | |

Leaving aside the points already made about a civilised society etc, why give them what they want, ie matyrdom? | |

It would arguably help prevent further radicalisation of other prisoners, which is a massive issue. They're sitting ducks and often lacking a sense of purpose. | |

Ah, but benters newspaper of choice has decided that they should plaster it on the front page, giving him and any lawyer who chooses to accept the brief additional profile, and hassle the poor mother of the victim for a quote. Classy. | |

Respect your opinion. But too much time is wasted on scum and the lawyers who milk the system. I'd prefer to spend time on people who need help but can't get it. | | | |

When it's been proven time and again that capital punishment is neither an effective deterrent nor a cheaper alternative to life in prison (the two 'logical' arguments), calls for its reintroduction are pure blood-lust. Personally, I find your views abhorrent. [Post edited 24 Jan 2017 11:21]

Thankfully more and more countries globally agree. Over centuries gladly we as a race have become more educated and have dropped previous barbaric practices (slavery anyone) i am a little surprised some still consider capital punishment still a humane choice | |

I'm not sure how I'd feel if it was one of my family, but I imagine my judgment could be clouded by emotion and that's why I shouldn't be the one deciding the punishment if it was a member of my family. Justice shouldn't be based on revenge. If we want to condemn killing we can't then be condoning it for a particular section of society, not in a civilised country. | |

And a well-reasoned and well-argued opinion it is too, you've certainly shown me the error of my ways. I'll be advocating the death penalty from here on in. | |

I read recently that UK public opposition to capital punishment only exceeded 50% in the past couple of years which i found pretty shocking. I also read that one of the strongest correlations in opinion between referendum Leave/Remain voters was their opinion on capital punishment (even more than education, income, social class etc). This thread seems to be supporting this at present... Sources http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-32061822 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-36803544 | | | |

I was once asked 'what if your family was tortured, raped, murdered etc., you still wouldn't want the death penalty then?' I replied in the affirmative. Delving into my very soul, framing a frank scrutiny of my self-supposed morality against the emotions which, in that situation, are not possible to imagine distinctly, I still believe that there is no crime nor act which would compel me to wish death upon the assailant. The geezer then said 'that's rubbish cos you wouldn't know how you'd feel'; in one swoop, the reveal of his hypothesis rendered his question and my response futile. That's the level we're dealing with here. On this, I will not equivocate. [Post edited 24 Jan 2017 14:05]

One of the Lee Rigby murderers . on 14:05 - Jan 24 with 3242 views | OxfordTH_1981 | Actually, having a fair and just society and legal system which treats everyone equally regardless of wealth, religious beliefs or previous crimes is the ambition of every civilised society. The fact that he committed a heinous crime does not mean that he has no right to protection under the law in the future. We do not know the facts of the case. If he was attacked or assaulted then I am struggling to see why a crime for which he has been rightly punished now means he loses all rights. | | | |

Hard cases make bad law. If you introduced it for this type of case, then soon the slippery slope would see that it was widened. It would also make terrorists into martyrs. | | | |
