You know, if we still had capital punishment, none of this would have happened :mad:
Sixty-nine prisoners were released from British jails by mistake last year.

And the so-called 'staff' should receive a minimum of 10 years for their sickening 'mistake'.

Sex offenders, burglars and inmates convicted of violence and robbery in England, Wales and Scotland were among those wrongly freed.
The statistics for 2009-10 were disclosed to the BBC after a Freedom of Information Act request.
It is thought most mistakes were due to prison staff miscalculating release dates.

Even if we did have the death penalty (and I am extremely glad that we don't), I doubt any of the prisoners who were released would have been sentenced to it anyway. They don't usually execute burglars, for example.
Screw that you liberal hippy! Its the death penalty for that!
I appreciate what you're saying but a near-enough capital punishment should be received.
That'll make sure the burglar thinks twice before he/she commits that same sickening offense (or any other).
What's one of those?
Well, I agree there should be a limit as to who gets that penalty. Obviously when a life is taken (whether it be in human or animal form), should be a start.
Presumably, one where you'd be hanged by the neck until you were nearly dead.
Or put in an electric chair with the plug cut off.
Chopping their head off a bit, I think.
ETA ^^^^^ Jinx.
Not sure if I would agree to that; in fact, no; I wouldn't.
Then how do you define "near enough capital punishment"? And don't you think it's a bit harsh for admin errors?
What, you mean it was an Islamic prison?
Yeah, killing is wrong. And to punish people for it, we will kill them. Go figure
You're mixing up Justice with murder,
You're mixing up bloodlust with justice.
Also what of wrongful convictions? "Oh sorry, Mr Bloggs, but we executed Mrs Bloggs and it turns out she was innocent after-all! Here, have a voucher..."
Are you the ghost of Raoul Moat?
None of those crimes carry the death penalty.
Your pathetic attempt at making this a point about the death penalty is embarrassing and sad.
