WTB Death penalty - HIV injections
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27681660...5773?GT1=31037
2 dudes injected 14 others with HIV infected blood, one got 9 years, the other 5.
I personally find this worse than murder, since you are ending up killing the person and making them suffer. If I had my way it'd be death by painful means, like watching sex in the city until they claw their eyes out in frustration.

They effectively sentenced 14 innocents to death, and escaped the penalty themselves? That makes wonderful sense.

The death penalty is ridiculous and shouldn't be put to use anywhere, in my opinion.
What these men did is absolutely unbelievable, though. Horrible, terrible actions. Truly despicable.

Complete isolation (with literally no social contacts at all) for the rest of their lives. That's the worst punishment.

A suitable punishment for a terrible crime. Even those who enjoy solitude would not last long in such conditions.Originally Posted by Kentaro

Where do you stand on the death penalty then?
Am I to understand from the above quote that, in the event of prison systems working as they should, you feel total life imprisonment without benefits is apt?

There's really injustice in this world...anyone of us could become a victim.
I wonder how society feels after all these things come to happen?
Guilt is one tough enemy, I think...it would be the one following you around.

Omg i thought homosexuals didnt like to hurt other ppl (Well my gay freinds are like that >.<) no im not try to generalize but feh it turned out that wayBut in Wednesday's ruling, judges said while the victims all had HIV, it could not be proven that they were infected by the injections because they willingly took part in orgies where gay men had unprotected sex.
anyways this is just sick and wrong wtf are these 2 thinking..

Alright now i fully read up tho seeing them 2 get away with giving 14 HIv thats death or you could say man slaughter >.> the fact however is this is in a different country and as you know everybody sees things differently. However i do see a death sentence for this not really possible because the people who end up getting have
A. Killed,Injured,Assault, Any physical punishment (and by this i mean alot of people)
B. Stealing from drugs to money
C. Probaly also have a long history of violence
Anyways this is my opinion and as said they see it as a Mental illness so different ideas again. well thats it for my piece

Let's not overlook the fact that this crime is most horrible in PREMISE.
It could be many, many years before they even develop AIDS, and even then, it's a heavily treatable disease nowadays.

I'm not 100% up against penalty, but those guys deserved a little more punishment than just 5 to 9 stupid years, one of them was even accused of ****
the death penalty tho, does not apply in this case because as I've read, the victirms willingly took part in unprotected orgies and gay sex, and nowadays the HIV it's one of the most controllable infections, with the new anti-retro-viral treatments you could almost cure HIV with constant treatment and care

that is one of the most terrible things I've ever heard of. These men should be put away for life in maximum security prison (I don't believe in capital punishment)
