Wing & Nagisa verbalized:
posts. I only have one comment that I will add. Acts born of hate
cannot be undone or rendered appeased by another act of hate. But who am
I to say.
I agree, however, I believe that they do have a deminishing effect on future
crimes. A person seeing a convicted criminal recieving a lasting punishment
(say, loosing a hand for stealing, or a public flogging for something) s/he
may rethink their plans and not do it.
Three things to think on (ponder as you will):
Violence begets violence.
Non-violence usually generates a bully that walks over the non-violent
because they can.
Hollywood loves violence. It sells.
