People who shoot girls in Central Columbia will someday likely be on death row, if not stopped by a good Policeman.

Some people are not capable of changing and their predilections affect too many other lives. The world is better off without them.

Life in prison has proved NOT to be a deterrent. Death penalty is.

Romans 13:4, For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God’s servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer (Sword refers to the govt’s authority to punish rebels, even by death)

Fred Jones was a kind man. Anyone who would kill him, and the others, in the manner that was done, deserves the full punishment of the law, without exception. Public hanging would be acceptable.

These degenerates that stay on death row for decades using state money for clothing, food, medical care, housing, etc should be put to death within 180 days of sentencing. Save the state millions

instead of funding the death penalty fund for an influx of therapist and psychologists and implement true rehab and make them do daily community work via supervision such as picking up litter or working in sanitation.

As long as we find one false convition in a thousand, we should halt this Barbaric behavior! Set the Example, not the standard of "If you hurt me, I hurt you!" and Don't give me the Bible says "An eye for an eye", that was before the dispossion of Grace given by Jesus Christ. Time to move forward.

Stupid decisions do cause unfair loss of life. We just lost 13 fine Americans because of a stupid decision. So we must be careful, but with capital punishment there are no repeat offenders.

Has that worked in the past? NO. Now we have prisons full of 'vacationing' murderers, getting 3 meals a day & cable & internet.

Don't know, but would be a bragger for sure if we would win, however; find it interesting that Mizzou is 8-0 on the season and not even ranked, yet KU is #1 and has lost a game....and Baylor is #15 and has lost 3 games.

He certainly doesn't have the qualifications that Biden and his people seem to display.

With Two Bronze Star Medals, Pete Hegseth is a United States Armed Forces decorated soldier for heroic achievement, heroic service, meritorious achievement, and meritorious service in a combat zone. Pete has the experience and the leadership skills required for this job.

Everything at this point is just a media witch hunt. There have been no convictions for wrongdoing. Besides, once Trump takes office, he can just give him a pardon for anything he might have done in the past 50 years.
