[quote=Kamal]lethal injection if I was the judge[/quote]Killing people off is way too easy. That's pretty much like letting the person off easy. Let her life and suffer the consequences. Without suffering, there is no justice.

Re: Andrea Yates found NOT Guilty!????!

just FYI:

19/20 violent crimes conducted by people without mental illness

Re: Andrea Yates found NOT Guilty!????!

yeah, that sounds right, because most violent crimes are related to poverty, gangs, circumstantial conflict, etc. i bet a lot of serial killers are otherwise mentally healthy too. that doesn't make the mentally disturbed any less responsible for their crimes, is my point. Like, I don't see how the "insanity" defense is consistent, whether it's temporary or not. Anyone can get angry, at any time, for any reason, so how can this be a defense?

My logic goes like this: if you're the kind of person that can be so enraged/upset over something that it can drive you to kill (besides self-defense, of course), why should that be a defense? You weren't under any Russian mind-control; you did it yourself. Whether it's because you're mentally unstable, or just angry, or sociopathic and unfeeling, shouldn't matter. If you're under the power of your own will, you face the consequences.

I thought most violent crimes were committed because of hip hop.

I have those first albums on vinyl AND I have the tour shirts in my collection. My brother gladly handed me all of his classic tour shirts from the late 70s and early 80s.
