I just have to comment on this add that I read yesterday regarding a person that was proven guilty through our judicial system and tried to be executed.  I am a little up in the air about executions however, I think that in a lot of cases I am for it more than against it.  The reason for that is because I don’t think that one person should be able  to take the life of someone else and walk free.  I guess what angers me the most is that when someone commits a crime, it is us who pay for it.  Financially we are housing inmates and feeding them and they are able to live for free with T.V. and three square meals a day.  Now I am not arguing that Prison  life is the best life, but what I am saying is that when you are in trouble for committing a crime against other people what gives you the right to have ANY rights whatsoever?  I think it is truly crazy that people in prison have rights and cable tv.  I don’t have anywhere to sleep if I don’t pay my rent, I don’t have any food to eat if I don’t buy it.  I don’t have cable t.v., unless I pay and subscribe to it.  I don’t have a flat screen tv, but the prisons have them now.  I don’t have electricity but inmates get all of these things for free.  If I am a working part of society why is it that I get punished by having to pay for these things when I am a positive part of our society and stay out of trouble.  I would love to know when it was that people who have taken away or abused other peoples rights and done things that were against the law get any  rights at all.

In this particular case that I was reading yesterday there was a gentleman that was going to be executed unfortunately for him the execution did not work and he did not die.  Now I think that this is unfortunate and it was horrible that this happened to him, however he did kill someone and take their life from them.  This is why he was on the execution block.  So now the government or sate is asking weather it is humane to try to kill him again and to put him through that kind of pain.  My answer to that is HELL YES and this time make sure he dies.  Now from my point of view is he has taken someone elses life and that person did not get another chance.  He did not stop until they were dead so why should he get another chance to live because he was in a lot of pain from the injection that did not work?  I am sorry, this may sound heartless, but the reality of it is why should he get more of a chance and get the opportunity to live and soak the rest of Americans from their money while we house him in prison because he didn’t die the first time and it’s inhumane to try it again and put him through the pain twice.  Do you really think that he thought about the person he killed and how inhumane it was to kill them the way he did?  I don’t think he did, not until he got caught anyway.  So the bottom line is this, why do people who have no regard for someone else get rights?  They did not deserve the rights that we are giving them.  The only right they deserve when in prison is to be able to have toiletries, clean clothes and a blanket to cover up with.  Why do we help those who do not help themselves?  Why do we continue to give rights to people who don’t deserve them, and everyone else must pay for their actions.

I found this article on Charter.net in the us news section.
