OK. Again, more words in my mouth. I evidently advocate giving rapists "a few years" and "putting them back on the streets." You, of course, are a beacon of truth and light, with the ability to determine guilt, severity of crime, and suitability of punishment - and the moral fortitude to kill people who deserve it (according to you).

Here's something for you to consider. We're all human beings. There are certain things that people do in our society that make that person forfeit their right to humanity. Some offenses warrant the death penalty. Some warrant life imprisonment. Some warrant a jail stay. The amazing thing about our society is that we don't have people like you running it. We have decided what offenses deserve which punishments, and we enforce these laws. The worst act of rape deserves death, and will be issued that punishment. Obviously, a court of law found that these men did not deserve death. I trust our justice system, and I trust that men and women who are more experienced, more educated, and more importantly, smarter than you are deciding how best to handle those that commit crimes. If it could be conclusively proven that a crime carried a 100% recdivism rate, then yes, imprison for life or kill the offender, depending on the severity of the crime. Since there is not a 100% (or even a 50% in most cases) chance that these people will reoffend, what right have we to deprive all of their life? What if a man who makes a mistake, serves his jail time, and is cured goes on to do great things for humanity? You would have killed him "behind the courthouse." Even though you believe that you fight for the greater good of society, you're nothing but a death-happy barbarian more focused on vengeance and vigilante justice than curing societal ills and doing all we can to make people producive and law-abiding members of society, not tombstones.

Its real simple. Its either death or other. Other can be anything, but death is the top most punishment.

Now, find me ONE rape case where the rapist was sentenced to death. In fact, very few even get life imprisonment.
So why your waging some feel good battle your actually helping get children raped.
Hope your feel good quest is worth it, I'll think of you every time I hear of another child who was raped. Should I applaud your successes too??

And thats the problem with emotional people. Their ruled by emotions, which rarely equate to common sense. In your eyes its OK for a guy to rape a child, serve 10 years then get out again. You've as much as admitted it.
And we wonder why we have repeat and threepeat sexual offenders.
Because people JUST LIKE YOU keep letting them out over and over.

Some people think the vaslue of life is in life itself. I think the value of life is what you do with it.
Raping children doesnt make me feel you have much value in your lifee. In fact, raping children doesnt make me think you should continue on with life at all.

You can go on and on about all these feel good bullsh1t emotions and "logic" and rule of laws.
Simple fact is this. If your such a sick depraved individual that you want to rape a child you deserve death. And why any sick twisted individual would think these people deserve any less baffles the hell out of me.

I can see why you feel morally justified here, but you're completely wrong and morally abhorrent. Yes, for some offenses, the human right to life is voided - but you, sir, have proven yourself to be less than mentally competant to make that decision.

Lets see.
First he says some crimes deserve death, but doesnt state this one which means he thinks this crime doesnt deserve death.
Then he says because I think raping a child deserves death that it makes me less then mentally competent.

Well I think that raping babies is pretty despicable, and OBVIOUSLY the poster in question doesnt think that. He doesnt think they deserve to die. Which means rape isnt classified as the worst of crimes to this guy.

Figure it out, I dont have the time to show you the interpretation to every post.

What he SAID, is that you, by the posts you have in this thread, are in no way, shape or form competent enough to make that decision. Which I wholeheartedly agree. You let your emotions over-rule you, and would rather listen to those emotions then any reason or fact. The fact that you advocate taking the law into your own hands as opposed to leaving it to the justice system, and then wanting to actually kill a person like William Elliott, a 21 yo at the time, having sex with a 14-15 year old. The fact that your response on whether or not sexual predators can be reformed is that it's not whether or not they can be, but that they should be killed simply because they're sex offenders.

For you to put words into his mouth like that, and distort his and other persons' posts based on logically flawed arguments is exactly one of the reasons he said this in the first place.

RULE OF LAW. read about it, study it.

it doesn't matter if the killed were "TRUE" repeat sex offenders or Statuatory rapers, vigilante justice is still not justified.

also, there are so many facts still not accounted for.

WHEN did they commit the crime? HAVE they commited the crime since? what if the one guy hadn't commited any crimes in 15 yrs, do you still kill him for a crime he commited, went to jail for and hasn't repeated?

RULE OF LAW.

So you believe every law is perfect and no changes are needed?
Fair nuff.

within the first 30 posts of this thread i specifically addressed that.

no i do not think the law is perfect but i would trust an imperfect law ANY day of the week before i trust someone like you.

yes, the laws against repeat sex offenders should be way way stiffer. mb even the death penalty.

but i don't believe in vigilantism.

what if some moron like you gets it into his head that all 14 yr old girls are evil and goes on a killing spree?

what if someone starts hunting sexual predators for all the right reasons and then gets a taste for killing and starts on other types of "criminals"

The site lists the photos, names and addresses of more than 2,200 sex offenders.

I have never agreed with the decision to post the sex offender list to the public. especially when it list the persons name, pictures and addresses.


I so agree with this...

This has in the past lead to some very serious issues of abuse from the public. And again, the public does not know the actual facts of every case. Online you just get a very brief synopsis of the conviction. So you really don't know the surrounding facts.

I would think people would want to know if there living next door to a rapist!

nah i understand what they are saying. what if it's that hot school teacher, the female blond? without knowing the surrounding facts and everyone being clumped together, the website registry does have flaws (but im still behind the website being UP)


maybe having it modified, or taking a closer look at how they are utilizing this website...???

I'm indifferent to William. Sucks to be him, too bad so sad. I really honestly dont care one way or the other.
The other guy deserved everything he got though, and I'm glad he was dealt with.

So most of my KILL'M NOW attitude is for people like the other gentleman. But I sure as hell wont shed any tears for poor ole William either.


Ultimately though, we can each think what we want to. None of us actually sits on the bench, nor do we make the laws. Hell, I could come out and say all speeders should be shot and you can call me a flaming farking idiot and ultimately it doesnt matter, becuase I dont make the laws.

You have qualifications in forensic psychology and are familiar with the literature on the treatment of sex offenders..?

Yep.
My qualifications come in the form of 1911 .45 training, and the literature is 230 grains of lead.

Seems to fix them up every time, with zero repeat offenders. 🙂

Now how can you possibly agrue with a 100% success rate?

I have to be honest with you, you're a sick puppy. I can see why you feel morally justified here, but you're completely wrong and morally abhorrent. Yes, for some offenses, the human right to life is voided - but you, sir, have proven yourself to be less than mentally competant to make that decision.

Gotchya.
So you think child rapist are ok people.

One of is indeed the sick puppy, but I dont think its me.

That's not what he is saying at all. No kid has the right to decide that their life should be taken for these offenses. This is why we don't immediately execute anyone who breaks the law, murder as a security measure cannot substain itself. Can you imagine how bad it would be if the government murdered every sexual offender? Like people said here, there are some cases where the line is less defined- and how would we even define it? How many cases are there that an underage girl lies about her age and then accuses that person of rape?

But that's beyond the point, this is about an overzealous citizen deciding that he has the right to take these lives away. This is not his duty or right to decide. The appropriate punishments have already been handed out, private citizens cannot interfere. Are you familiar with the term "witch hunt"? We cannot afford for this type of scenario to repeat itself, it ultimately creates more problems.

That's why we can't call him a hero or trivialize what has happened here.

That way, the community will be notified that there is an offender in the area, without giving the person's exact address out for people to harrass them or otherwise commit violence.


In my neighborhood they sent mailouts to us of a registered sex offender, it showed his name, his crime (very much like what is on the database) his actual new address so everyone would know where he was moving to, and his picture for identification purposes. For real! It was freaky....
 
Now, find me ONE rape case where the rapist was sentenced to death. In fact, very few even get life imprisonment.

The last man killed for rape was in 1964. There is currently a man on death row in Louisiana who was convicted of rape.

So why your waging some feel good battle your actually helping get children raped.
Hope your feel good quest is worth it, I'll think of you every time I hear of another child who was raped. Should I applaud your successes too??

Thanks for the bullshit. My "feel-good battle" ensures that we uphold the Constitution in protecting everyone's right to due process, a fair trial, and no unjust punishment. I'm really wondering how I'm "helping get children raped" - and quite honestly, I think that you believe that the only way to keep little kids from getting raped is to kill everyone who ever looks at them. You can't see into the minds of men, and have no idea what the future holds. To assume a future crime is to walk down the "minority report" path.

And thats the problem with emotional people. Their ruled by emotions, which rarely equate to common sense. In your eyes its OK for a guy to rape a child, serve 10 years then get out again. You've as much as admitted it.

Again, words in my mouth. I'm not guided by emotion, you are. I say, follow the Constitution, punish according to law, assume humanity until proven otherwise, forfeit life only when absolutely necessary. You say kill anyone who you feel is a threat, kill because of possible future actions, kill because of their state of mind. Which argument is based on emotion?

And we wonder why we have repeat and threepeat sexual offenders.
Because people JUST LIKE YOU keep letting them out over and over.

And in your perfect little dystopia, everyone who is ever convicted in court should be shot. If you did it once, you'll do it again - even if it's speeding, or parkign illegally. Why not just kill someone if we know they're going to break the law again? Welcome to your own line of logic.

Some people think the vaslue of life is in life itself. I think the value of life is what you do with it.

Translation: You're allowed to live if Specop 007 thinks you're a useful human being.

Raping children doesnt make me feel you have much value in your lifee. In fact, raping children doesnt make me think you should continue on with life at all.

I don't disagree. But "raping children" is difficult than "being on a sex offender list." And it's certainly different from "sexual abuse of a minor." Different crimes, different punishments. Your emotions are pushing them all together.

You can go on and on about all these feel good bullsh1t emotions and "logic" and rule of laws.

You're the one with feel-good emotions. I'm the one with rule of law and logic. We all know which of these are admirable traits in a debate.

Simple fact is this. If your such a sick depraved individual that you want to rape a child you deserve death. And why any sick twisted individual would think these people deserve any less baffles the hell out of me.

First, "want" is different than "do." Are you the thought police now? Like i said, we can't read the minds of men. If we can make a low-risk system to allow for the gradual reeducation and reintroduction of less-major offenders to society without much risk to others, I'd be all for it. Unless the crime is heinous (which is your assumption here), there should be every effort to fix the person, not end them. You need to stop letting your emotions confuse "brutal serial rapist" with "sex offender."

Seriously.

I mean, there's revenge, and there's vigilantism. And then there's bloodlust.

And then there's Specop 007.




(Yes, I'm exaggerating just a bit. It's funny. :laugh: )

Truly, I don't want anybody dying that doesn't have to and doesn't want to. I think a lot of capital punishment advocates have a bit of a death fetish. It's also a cowardly route out of the problem.

One more thing I'd like to mention. It's kind of hard to convey my idea, but: If there were some consentual, legal activity that is only partially as... uh, "satisfying" to this bunch as their illegal activity, do you think that some of them would be persuaded to choose it instead?

the law is the law, just as 18 yr olds that slept with 17 yr olds are classified as sex offenders, vigilante justice is also illegal.

ILLEGAL. we live in a society of laws, it is never justified to kill someone without a trial.


That is why our justice system wastes tax dollars. Seriously, police should get more pay, and capital criminals should die instant. So what if they killed one by mistake and he/she was wrongly convicted. Think of how much good that money used to keep a villan alive can do. 70k a year. that can do alot of great deeds.

Come back and tell us this when they kill you because you were the first to find a body at a crime scene.
 
I wonder if the people justifying these killings would feel the same way if some of the women teachers charged with statutory rape of their minor students were murdered.

Of course they wouldn't. They justify their feelings based on emotion. Since this post plays counter to their emotions on how they feel towards male sex offenders, they wouldn't approve of it.

Enough of this "rule of law crap"....

Why should anyone respect the law when the so called "lawmakers" want to give amnesty to ILLEGAL immigrants...as far as I am concerned if they give the illegal immigrants a free pass and not consider what they have done a crime...then there is no law!!!

Gotta love the democrat liberal moron I saw on Foxnews who said...."we need to not criminalize the illegal immigrant issue"...DUH!!!!!


That aside unless you know a person is a level 3 sex offender or known as a predatory offender with the highest likelihood of offending you may kill a person for a rather minor infraction.....Level 3's should never be parolled in my opinion since most in the field agree they cannot be successfully treated....

If these were level 3's who may have raped or molested his child or a family member I would say I feel sorry for him killing himself, and good riddens to the scurge of the earth...However I dont hink this is the case and therefore I dont commend his act....If anything he may have contributed to the liberal agenda to get these sex offender's list removed, and i think they are a good source for info for law abiding citizens...

I think its safe to say the "Pursuit of life, liberty and happiness" also includes the right of not being raped and murdered when your 12.

Maybe I'm just funny like that though, thinking people who rape 12 year olds shouldnt be out in the general public.

This whole bullsh1t of making criminals out to be victims is one of the reasons we have so much crime. They rape a 12 year old, we give'm some probahtion, send them out to rape a 10 year old, give'm a few years in jail.

Hey, not their fault they want to rape minors, thier just victims too. :disgust:


That's great,
but the article doesn't mention anything about who did what. For all you know, the 24 y/o kid got charged with statutory rape because his gf's parents didn't like him.

In either case, I can't imagine how you'd try to rationalize that execution is due punishment for rape, especially since it implies that rape as an offense is of the same degree as murder (rape...get executed, murder...get executed => rape = murder). By that logic, victims should be indifferent between getting murdered and getting raped, which clearly isn't the case.

Lets find out!
From the article

The shootings of Joseph L. Gray, 57, of Milo, and William Elliott, 24, of Corinth,

We can go see exactly what they did.
Oh wait, no we cant. Because CRIMINALS have MORE rights then law abiding citizens!!

led state police to take down the Maine Sex Offender Registry Web site as a precaution, state Department of Public Safety spokesman Stephen McCausland said


errr whaa?
Breathe into a paper bag for 30 secons and then maybe try posting something coherent?

Try reading comprehension.
Previous poster stated we dont know what they did. Well, given their names and towns, we can look them up and see exactly what they did.

Well, we could if the database wasnt offline to protect criminals.


Yeah,
so you don't even know why they were on the sex offender list, yet you're cheering for this canadian crackpot.

Anyway, I'm still waiting for you to rationalize how rape is the same degree offense as murder...


How about you try getting raped and seeing how life altering it is mentally. It isn't simply "Oh, I got raped, but I'm fine now that he is behind bars." Relationships could harder to hold onto or even start for that matter. Depression, and guilt might lead to suicide. What if your daughter was going through this during the 8 years that the rapist was in jail. Then you find out that he was released and your daughter still hasn't been back to normal. How do you deal with that?

If it turns out those men have truly raped someone (don't bring up statutory rape) then I will have NO sympathy for them. For all we know the killer could have been raped by them. I have urges to hit some people but don't act upon them because I have SELF CONTROL.

But seriously, we do not know the background to this case to go accusing.

Even with these circumstances, would you prefer your daughter a) raped b) killed. Unless you're indifferent in this selection, the due punishments cannot be the same (ie execution). This is really the foundation of justice (the philosophy behind it) - having a punishment that fit the crime


If it leads to her having a depressing, lonely and sad life which could lead to suicide then I would have rather she passed away a long time ago then to endure the pain of reliving what happened for the time she was a live, post rape. Being raped usually has devastating effects (even for men). You might not feel the same about having your daughter raped.

You realize how ridiculously stupid that is, right?

OK Big Man, let's see you go out and kill a few pedophiles. You talk the talk, do you walk the walk?
 
If I get an incurable disease, I will probably go out the same way. If someone abuses my child, they won't stay on this earth for long.

All the people who are pleading the case of the human monsters, you deny some important facts.

1) Pedophiles commit an offense that is stronger than any human law; it invites almost universal and total revulsion. This is because evolution has bred into us very strong impulses for defending our children. It's a good thing.

2) No normal person can change laws. It's very simple. Politicians have all the power to make laws. Even if you have the time, money and inclination to become a politician, you're not guaranteed to succeed. Please, no more stupid arguments about people who don't agree with pedophile's sentences changing the system. The system is not serving the people with respect to child molesters. Run a poll.

3) Pedophiles are dangerous, incorrigible criminals. There is no sense in ever letting a child rapist out on the street; to do so is an abuse against morality and society, as it intentionally endangers the well-being of law-abiding citizens. However, even right-minded politicians have a lot on their plate, and awareness of the extent of the pedophilia problem is fairly new in this country. In addition, judicial activism perverts the intent of the law, as judges (unconstrained by any hard sentencing guidelines) often give repeat child molesters only probation.

4) Even in the absence of the knowledge of the horrible crimes perpetrated by child molesters, one should be able to realize that sentences for these people are horribly out of whack. You can go to jail for many years for counterfeiting a dollar bill (a crime which does direct harm to no person), but get out on probation after raping a child.

Run a poll. You'll understand why people are frustrated. One's biological imperative to protect one's children is correctly stronger than a corrupt legal system.

:thumbsup: yes sir

What? Are you guys serious? Just because they are registered as sex offenders doesn't mean that this kid had the right or moral obligation to kill them. There is nothing right or legal about killing others, even if they have done wrong things. This is not something to cheer on, if he hadn't killed himself he would have been rightfully jailed.
