Death penalty - While it is kind of sick the people do deserve it. You do realize that our taxes pay for these sick sadistic f*cks to keep them in jail. They murdered countless people and are pure evil. Their lives are over anyway once they're in jail for the rest of their life, so why pay for these sickos.
I fully agree with you here.
No offence to all of you against the death penalty, you obviously all have very sheltered lifes, and I can understand that. It's not the same everywhere in the world though. I'm from South Africa, possibly one of the most ****ed up countries in the world right now, but, somehow everything that happens here gets hushed and hidden away from the your eyes. Let me give some facts.....
source
- A woman gets raped every 28 seconds
- SA's murder rate is 6 times higher that the United States
- African males believe that raping a white virgin will cure them from aids (The proportion of South African deaths because of HIV/Aids has nearly doubled from 4.6 to 8.7% between 1997 and 2001, 5 million people have already been infected and another 350 000 per year from there on)
- SA becomes world's new drug capital
- 55 South Africans are murdered everyday
- Doctors in America and England are advising women travelling to South Africa and the rest of the continent to pack anti-Aids drugs in their luggage because of the high incidence of the disease and rape
- More than 1 400 farmers have already been murdered in extremely violent, brutal attacks, it is genocide
Our police force are underfunded, corrupt, millions of rands rather gets spent on Mandela's 85th birthday bash when thousands and thousands of people are starving, police officers sell newspapers on street corners to make ends meet, jails are overflooding, the correctional services are corrupt, jail rapes are of the highest in the world (slow punctures they are called, infecting inmates with Aids) and murderers and rapists serve jail sentences of just a few years.
Last week, a few blocks from where I work, a woman, her mother and her little one year old girl was hijacked by 4 heavily armed men. The grandmother was shot in the neck and thrown out of the car, the little girl was shot in the head and back, execution style, the mother gang raped and then shot, all while her husband was listening to her brutal screams over her mobile. Hell will freeze over before my tax money serves to keep those demons alive in jail. This is just one case, there are thousands of others. The government does...NOTHING.
Do you have any idea what it's like to always watch over your shoulder, to as a woman not be able to drive a car alone, to know that 1 out of 3 women are raped in their lives, so between yourself ,your mother and your sister, one of you are bound to be raped and infected with aids. The streets are littered with criminals, all released from jail, and if they go back, it would just be for a while. Our houses look like prisons. At my work we need to get escorted in the mornings into our building from where we are dropped or parked. White farmers are the highest at risk murder group in the world.
This is no way to live. The only way is to leave the country unless you want to fear for your life and those of your loved ones everyday. The country's spirit are broken, the people are angry, and unless the government does not do something about these killings we will start taking the law into our own hands, civil war is brewing and all because the screwed up government sits back and does nothing.
I'm all for death penalty, all these ****ers deserve to rot in hell as soon as possible. If I sound blase about killing someone for committing a murder, place yourself in this position first. How would you feel to watch your wife being raped by 4 men while you can do nothing to save her, see her being shot, you being tortured, hacked to pieces, and your remaining family's tax money will pay to keep them alive, keep them fed everyday. That's a daily occurance here. They do not deserve the air they breathe.
Feel free do delete this post, it won't stop anything from happening though. I wish people would just divert their eyes a little from their safe, secure lives everyday and place themselves in the shoes of the people that really feel evil's wrath.
