Another botched execution? Arizona inmate took 2 hours to die

[GandD 5,966]

You know G and D it's all we got know. I am so tired of the same old gun arguments. we all know them by heart. TM/GZ is about like wearing a leisure suit to meeting. It was cool for a bit, but know folks don't want to hear it. All this Geo Political stuff is for people who wish to read volumes about such things and in the end it's none of Americas business anyway.

So if Marvin and I can argue about his bigoted stereotypes as I try and help him see past skin color. What else is left.

The validity of the death penalty?

If only we had a thread in CEHST dedicated to just shooting the breeze about whatever we want and what's going on in or lives. I bet that would give us something to talk about.

I'm not saying I agree with mods being ridiculous about moving stuff there Teddo. BUT, why is it so hard for people here to click on OT and jump in any of the many threads that have been created there for that exact purpose? We complained about it at first but now i kinda prefer it. There's times I don't want to deal with this mess but want to keep up with some of the people.

ATTENTION LAZY A$$es IN CE&HST, we have had several ongoing threads in OT with the usual suspects in an attempt to promote togetherness. Everyone is encouraged to join as long as you can leave the politics to this forum.

I understand G and I wonder that also sometimes. People are creatures of habit, If for whatever reason someone doesn't find the OT section interesting then they probably won't go back. I really can't explain it, but keeping the thread in CEHST garners much more action from the folks who regularly post in this forum.

It's easy to explain. Folks love confrontation. There's a passion here that doesn't exist when you're talking about plants and what movie did you last watch. Anytime there is room for debate, there will be more participation.

I had to prod you to get you over to OT.

Yep, I went and joined in. I just left the most current thread, still trying to see what's going on.

Its a thread about nothing

I think you're missing the point a bit Marv. If that friendly off topic thread I started in which no debate or confrontation was taking place, was left here in CEHST, it would probably be over 50 pages long by now. But instead it's dead over in OT. Why do folks in this forum participate like crazy in those type of threads when they're left in CEHST as opposed to not participating at all in them once they are moved to OT?

Ok, I see I was talking about the wrong thing. Probably because like you said, creatures of habit. That same thread wouldn't have the same people in it over there since most of us squatters are here.

Which poses the question: Why don't people click their mouse over to OT, especially knowing that there is a thread especially for the CEHST posters there? All I can come up with is creatures of habit. It really can't be laziness cause it takes no effort to do so.

What if CE&HST was a subforum of OT?

The validity of the death penalty?

Well we could go there, but it is a very complicated subject. The nits on the right think we should suspend due process and hang them the next day at sunrise, cause someone thinks they saw something or the corrupt police in the US lied about the evidence.

The nits on the left don't think we should make an example out of some moron that mowed down and touted 5 people in cold blood, with tons of witnesses., and would have you believe that we kill a lot of innocent people.

The truth is we probably have it just about right. Compared to the cases that could get the death penalty, it is sparingly used and even when used, we spend years and years, doing case reviews and appeals, in the hope that we make sure we get it right. A lot of time activists will publicize a cause, make a celebrity out of some piece of scum that deserves it, tell half truths, etc, and try to convince America we executed an Innocent man when it is just not true. As in the case of Troy Davis here in Ga, who was guilty as sin, but it became cool for the low information voter to rally to his defense with half facts. We got it right

I agree, because after a while I would much rather hear about your opnion on Deep fat fryers than guns, and I am sure the reverse is also true., not because I don't appreciate your right to have an opinion, it's just that I already know every one of them by heart.
