Ms. Spam Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Now what? Do you think he should be put in a special nut house or DEATH? I'm kinda steering towards death. You can't fix nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RelentlessMalice Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Well this is one guy they need to do some experimental stuff on and figure out why he was bat shit crazy then execute him once the study is concluded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeygirl Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Yeah, yeah. He clearly is impaired. He doesn't seem like a flight risk from prison. I don't know about the loose definition of "do some experimental stuff on" but if anyone fits the insanity plea, it's this guy. Keep him confined for the crime, but not in a general prison population. I disagree with executing someone so mentally ill unless he is a risk to society.

Pong Messiah Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 there really should be an option to execute people because they are just 'too fuckin crazy' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RelentlessMalice Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Why waste money on keeping a crazy guy alive? Put him to sleep and dig a hole and throw his useless carcass in it. Hell it was a waste of money putting him on trial. This is why people like this should not be taken alive to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RelentlessMalice Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Well vice versa MG. Because I dont want to be a person who lives in a place that allows crazy sobs to live out their lives at the taxpayers expense. Get rid of them. They are not contributing members of society.

monkeygirl Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 It costs more to execute than it does to house.

Cerina Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I'm sorry. Do you really not consider this guy a risk to society? I mean, do you think he's cured from shooting up a public building for no reason? One and done, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pong Messiah Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 A bullet is alot cheaper than a lifetime of prison.true but our legal system is already imperfect u can call me crazy but accepting donated bullets in order to kill people faster is the kind of thing that would probs lead to an even less perfect legal system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justus Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Well this is one guy they need to do some experimental stuff on and figure out why he was bat **** crazy then execute him once the study is concluded. I do not think he is insane. He would not be the first murderer to play "insane" as away of escaping the death penalty or life in prison. From the hair dye, to the bug-eyed mug shots, it comes off as the same game played by innumerable killers just to save their own asses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odine Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Insanity is a tough one though isn't it. I mean.. you'd have to be insane to voluntarily dye your hair that shade of l'orange right? But even with that level of insanity, that don't mean your so insane you're not cognizant of the fact shooting a bunch of people in a cinema is a no-no. And it doesn't mean you're not responsible cause you didn't take the [insert anti-psychotic pharmaceutical here].* *note: I do not mean to demonize people who are on "anti-psychotic" medication. Those two terms scream with negative connotations that they do not deserve. Or more accurately: the people who have whatever condition that requires said medication do not deserve such negative connotations. All that said. Who is the bigger psychopath. This guy or Dylan Roof? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RelentlessMalice Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Once again this guy should not have been taken alive to begin with. Also I am talking about donating the bullet to kill this idiot Holmes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 What makes him not likely to be able to escape?Reality. The reason the recent prison break was big news is the fact that it doesn't happen frequently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pong Messiah Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 The reality, Fozzie, is that thousands of violent criminals escape every day; these criminals rarely even bother changing out of their jumpers before going on their next raping and burgling spree. They often just pass out, bloated on crime joy, and are picked up and brought back in by authorities before waking up. The current system is a travesty.

How is it cheaper to keep him alive for the length of his life? I mean sure there is the option for appeal and we may not get to execute him for years but I think death is cheaper. Oddly I think it costs more to house and feed an inmate than I made my first year teaching. I am neither pro or con death penalty but lately with some of these shooters I kinda lean towards it.

Pong Messiah Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 How is it cheaper to keep him alive for the length of his life?Depending on the state, death penalty cases cost 0.5 - 4 times more than cases where the death penalty is not sought. Housing death row prisoners costs a lot more, too, I believe, and they are no doubt more appeals (do people sentenced to death ever not appeal?)...

Tex Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 What I don't understand is what motivated this guy. He was smart enough to know that he was gonna get caught, smart enough to know he was gonna either rot in jail or get the chair, and yet he did it anyway. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think he was planning on dying like so many others have. I just don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think he was planning on dying like so many others have. I just don't get it.I think its very possible he planned on suicide by cop, and didn't plan on getting caught. Personally, I don't care what his motive was. All I am concerned with is if his guilt is 100%, and I only support the death penalty in extreme cases of murder or heinousness. Crazy or not, this crime took premeditation. There is no question Holmes committed the crime and i think he deserves the death penalty. It would be a different story if we weren't absolutely 100% sure Holmes was the shooter, but that isn't the case here. Holmes might have been mentally ill, but I think he also knew right from wrong and planned this shooting, and given he's a convicted mass murderer, he should be put to death, or at least deserves to be.
