Saddam RIP – Reaction
Sam over at Pull Out The Pin believes that the execution of Saddam was the right thing to do. Me I don’t think so. I blogged before on Capital Punishment and im still opposed to it. CNN reported that Saddam faced the execution with fear in his face, what is the point in that? Seriously like? Nothing gives us the right to end someone elses life so why does a fledgling ‘democratic’ state have that right. To me the...

Crime and Punishment: Is capital punishment the answer to reducing crime ?
No, capital Punishment is not the answer to reducing crime. I personnaly am against capital punishment because it is murder at the hands of the state, which is still a crime in the eyes of God. Just look at states that have capital punishment, 38 states of the USA and the federal government allow capital punishment. Only recently did they stop the executions of minors. The 12 countries with the most executions in 2004 were:China – 3,400+ Iran –...
