Kill them all.

Don't do it cruel, or unusual.

but

Kill them all.

If you commit fraud over a million dollars,
a jury of your peers might hand you the DEATH PENALTY.

Stick that in the Blackmail Bailout Bonanza.

Then, I will be happy.

Now I know where Ellen Hopkins got her literary style.

Boris?

I am not, nor have i ever been a liberal.

I am a radical.

Good to know the Mormon Judgement is as sharp as ever!

Radically CRAZY.

How about life imprisonment in an asylum?

Posted by Kwea (Member # 2199) on :

I vote the same be done for poor poetry.

Posted by Danlo the Wild (Member # 5378) on :

I think the death penalty is a valid idea.

Posted by Xann. (Member # 11482) on :

I don't think it should be a valid practice though.

Posted by Danlo the Wild (Member # 5378) on :

Why not?

The CEO of AIG walked away with about $500 MILLION DOLLARS for driving the company into the ground, and now WE have to pay for it?

Remember the old little S & L bailout?

Remember Enron?

When will we hold these people accountable?

Never?

Awesome.

Why not just inflict them with the super nova plauge?

Your God's a god of love and justice. Let Him deal with it.

I am one of those crazy folk who are opposed to the death penalty in every instance. I choose not to give my arguments why though, because ultimately it boils down to a definition of justice. I find it unjust, and others find it just. It's hard to change someone's mind on their moral compass. [Smile]

So yeah, I'm opposed to this line of thought. But then I remember it's the ever-lovable Thor who's bringing it up. [Smile]

How about just letting them work for prison wages until they pay it all back? [Big Grin]

Posted by Olivet (Member # 1104) on :

Wonderful idea, Sterling!

Posted by scifibum (Member # 7625) on :

On the plus side, Danlo's idea would take care of Kevin Trudeau.

"How about just letting them work for prison wages until they pay it all back?"

I'd be happy if they had to simply live the lives of normal, middle-class Americans. They never will, though.

Posted by Danlo the Wild (Member # 5378) on :

How can America speak the word Justice?

Why wont we go after these CRIMINALS?

Because they are RICH and WHITE?

WHY? They broke the law. The stole billions. America has suffered as a whole.

WHY WONT WE PUNISH THEM?

WHERE IS JUSTICE?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Or is this a confirmation that money is god in america?

If so those who chose not to let their works speak for themselves should stop trying to convert people.
