No reason to be cruel about it. Just a conviction, an appeal and a hanging. All very well covered by the Constitution.

OK final offer. The judge takes them out the back of the court house and shouts "Take that you dirty beloved patriot!" then shoots them in the face with a 12 gauge.

"beloved patriot" is a demeaning and racist term not welcome here, not to mention that you don't even know that the perp is Mexican.

I don't agree with most of what Taj says, but going OT like that just clogs up the thread unnecessarily.
Anyway, I'm not a mod, so feel free to continue.
Yet here you are, not discussing the topic.

"This is unnecessary, should stay on topic" - guy not staying on topic.

Cool story bro.
 
The police are saying there are similarities between the devices in all 4 bombs. They are holding a press conference right now. And the 2 victims of this latest bomb are white.

The UK's CCTV program is looking mighty fine right about now. Being able to track the suspect from a bombing location would be incredibly useful.

Is it? Define "cruel and unusual," because the federal courts, whose job it is to interpret the Constitution (intentionally vague, with designed flexibility, you know), seem to disagree with you when it comes to modern precedent.

Perhaps you should tell them that they are wrong, because you are teh smart. Further, I think they would disagree about some of your other admitted opinions of what aren't "cruel and unusual" forms of punishment...like tossing grenades into tunnels.

It was in place at the time the Constitution was written and was perfectly acceptable.
 
I hope the bombings are linked to the KKK, then we can label them as a terrorist organization and destroy them. Drone strikes, Special Forces, the kitchen sink.
 
Indeed. what if they are linked to the DNC? And gay frogs?
It's a goose/gander question. If any group is linked to the bomber should that group be considered a terrorist group and obliterated/outlawed? Or is it just a rogue nutbar like the guy that tried to assassinate the Republican House baseball team?

Association should confer investigation, not guilt. Investigate potential ties to establish if any moral or material support were provided for the crime(s). Standard burden of proof applies.
