We need to execute more death sentences.
I disagree!

Except its not 'talking points'. Its the actual liberal claptrap that occurs daily. And the end results...well...thats full on display. 454 dead bodies and counting...already surpassing last years total with 4 full months to go.OK, I get it, you're just in the mood to spew right wing drivel blaming libruls for everything. The "rats" stuff should have clued me in but I'm a bit slow this evening. Sorry I bothered to respond! :roll:
Donald Trump knows someone who knows how to stop Chicago crime | Chicago Sun-Times I really can't stand him. He's a tool.
Rudy Giuliani cleaned up NYC and the left hated him for it.
A man like him couldn't do that in Chicago today because of the spineless liberal approach to crime fighting.

You're wrong.
No, you're wrong!
This isn't the time or place to get into a debate about the many problems with the death penalty, so I'll just say that for lots of reasons I think it's terrible policy in this era, and I've never seen any compelling evidence that it serves as a meaningful deterrent to crime.
Of course you won't admit that the biggest problem with the death penalty is that it isn't used enough.

Well, I don't believe that to be true, because I've seen no evidence that it is true and that greatly expanding the death penalty could conceivably be the solution to our crime problem, even if we were to accept the huge downsides of the death penalty as an acceptable cost for combating crime.
So, yes, you are correct that I won't "admit" to something I think is absurd and contrary to the evidence I've seen.
Similarly, my guess is you won't admit that Obama is the greatest President of the past century, with the possible exception of FDR! :doh
The Death Penalty is not just to deter crime it is also the ultimate punishment for those that deserve nothing less.
You haven't seen any evidence because the death penalty hasn't been used to its full effectiveness in your lifetime. X
No, he really didn't, and it's ludicrous to say the "left" hated him for the drop in crime.
Crime started significantly dropping before he took office, and went down across the country during the same period. He took credit for trends he likely had little to do with, and other cities not run by an egomaniac in the media capital of the world had bigger crime drops, like San Francisco. Truth is unleaded gas probably had a FAR bigger impact on crime than anything Rudy did. Certainly the "broken windows" theory of policing has been widely discredited since then.
