the calling out part of it. listen, i believe in the scientific reasoning, more then the religous reasons. but, i think arguing over it is dumb. it goes nowhere.

i definately see your point.
however, with the advances in DNA and genetics, and other criminal investigative advancements....those wrongful convictions are decreasing AND being overturned from years ago.
true, there is a room for error.....but any practice is not fool proof.


i soundly disagree. i believe it more progressive to be more hardline on crimimals in general. it would advance society and remove the many cancers plaguing it.


agreed to an extent.
once they have been convicted and sentanced to death....do as much research as you wish, they have given up thier rights as inviduals.
then, upon conclusion of the research....kill em.


obvioulsy few would agree with my approach (few liberals, anway)....but one thing all should agree on: the current criminal legal system does not work.

suggestions?

There you go Q. Common sense once again.. They should develop a common sense party that agrees not be a party.

Firstly, it helps to make posts comprehensible. Punctuation and grammer exist for a reason. Secondly, if you are typing correctly, holding down the shift key (use left pinky, it should be able to depress the shift key, whilst leaving your right hand free to access all the left hand side keys, and thumb on the space bar) should be incredibly easy, and not in any way shape or form time consuming. It will also help you punctuate correctly, as several of the punctuation marks are on keys second functions (question mark, colon, brackets, etc etc) and ingrain correct typing form. This should help increase your typomatic rate and accuracy (cutting down on the number of typos) whilst giving your posts more credibility, and making them easier to parse.

It *is* the least you can do.

I'm not demanding 100% spelling accuracy, or you to pour over grammatical handbooks. However correct capitalisation is one of the most remedial requirements for correct presentation, and something that even the most incompetent or lazy of posters should be perfectly capable of.

Independant? Yes. Centrist? No. (so far left you can't see me)

Also, your ironic comedic stylings are not funny. While persistance might make it more endearing, or give you opportunity to refine them, I would suggest you consider something more abstract.

Isn't exactly "I love Ashlee Simpson: Discussion Group", it's "Political Discussion Group". So we are talking about more serious issues, that is probably why you see much less LOL/TTYL/OMG bullshit here. Oh and we WANT to have intelligent discussions, you sir(child, whatever) are not helping.

I think that is unfair. There is no reason why you can't have insightful political discussion as presented through the medium of a truck-stop toilet wall.

Who said I was trying to be funny there? I'm serious. I guess to get respect in here, you need to take your time on the typing. I'm here to learn, not see people try to diss one another. It's too bad people take a good thing to the extreme.

I was in Texas last weekend for a funeral and one of my wife's cousins asked me if I was a logger. :rolleyes:

You were seriously worried I would give you a detention? You should be more worried about Corporal Punishment, and is camp friend Major Bumsore.

Well duh, the dentention thing I just threw in there. Anyway, this conversation is probably the dumbest I have ever been in and the fault lies in my hand. So, there Ace, lets look past this thread because it is for sure a lost cause, and concentrate on bigger important things rather than itty bitty stupid things.
