No, I don't want to -kill- them, which is far different than wanting to give them fluffy pillows at night.

You can't use violence to solve violence. It is a violation of both my faith and, by requirement, my views on morality.

So what do you want to do with them?
 
Must you ask the same question three times? By saying that they shouldn't be killed, isn't the implication that they should stay in whatever jail they're in?

I keep asking until I get an answer. :P

You said, "...they're currently housed in a facility that violates international law and any basic concept of human rights."

Does that mean you would be satisfied with them staying in such a facility for the rest of their natural lives?
 
I'd wish that to change, of course, but it's better than -killing- them.

It's my relatives terrified of US troops in Iraq. You don't see me wanting to hang everyone in the army, do you?

Hope that your relatives are helping the Iraqi government achieve their goals.

The sooner that is done, the sooner my relatives come home from Iraq.

Yup, I agree.

I don't support death penalty, just build an tough prison, such as bed with no mattress and metal toliet/sink, no everything, such as no tv, book or computer in cell. That's make prisoners so unhappy and extremely boring, just isolation for entire of their life.

Well, the death penalty is cheaper than to keep a prisoner alive, so, I support the death penalty rather to keep the prisoners stay in the Maximum Prison to their death.

Disagree with you.

I had learned from history class, death penalty is more expensive than life in prison, that's true and that what my teacher was told me at high school.

It does take more taxes as well.

Costs of the Death Penalty
 
WTF? That's odd but interesting. Big difference from the old western. ha

But still I support the death penalty for good.

Yup, I was means it's your choice to support penalty death, that won't bother me.

Every people have different opinion, sorry if my post was confused.

:nodding in agreement:
 
how about putting them to the american prison? jk.. well, i'm not gonna go for death penalty or to have life in prison.. as long as they know what they're doing to the prisoners. the prisoners deffy doesn't belong anywhere on this earth except a cell. if its death penalty.. well, then be it. its an easy way out. but goes both ways.

You don't want the Gitmo prisoners to be killed because they are Muslim and it's against your religion and yet you are pro-choice as you outed yourself as pro-choice on the abortion thread. Sounds like a contradiction to me.

Woah, woah. I don't believe in killing people because -they are human beings, just like me-. That said, if my objection was only to killing Muslims (It is not!) those people would NOT be in that category. Those men awaiting execution at Gitmo are NOT Muslim. They took my religon and perverted it into something hardly recognisable as an EXCUSE for their disgusting actions. Don't get that one wrong.

And... this has nothing to do with my views on abortion. I support a woman's right to abortion well pre-viability, which is a far cry from supporting execution of breathing human beings.
 
I agree with Aleser.

I am just following one what I think is God's (and many different beliefs) most sacred law, "Thou shall not murder (kill)."

To me, take a life of human being, regardless of their background is one of worst crimes a human can ever commit.

Only time I believe it's okay is in self-defense.

Those killers were already caught, so I don't feel comfortable have my hands turned red just because they are killers. It just feels too much like I am god myself deciding who shall live and who shall die.
As Aleser have said, if I killed those bad guy in name of justice, then I am no worse than those guys.
 
Hmph. I'm not surprise.. =/
