    Hog wibbled forthrightly:
    I'm with ogden on this one. Flame wars over the death penalty are
    tedious, tiring and boring. Bugger off to aadp if you want some fun.
    Mind you, I'm not sure that they discuss the DP any more either.

    The defendant can object to a juror but they have to have a very good
    reason.

    Perhaps it was badly framed. See I've always had reservations based on
    execution of an innocent. Though I've thought it might be possible to design
    a suitable (human) system. But now the technology exists to scan the
    patient to a degree of considerable certainty I'm pretty sure a system, with
    matching human error correction, could be constructed.

    So that said, it comes down to other things and I wonder if cunts like this
    push people's reservations over the edge.

    TBH, juries aren't "selected" in the US, either. But each side has a
    set number of peremptory challenges to dismiss jurors they don't want.
    In California, I think the number is 3. I see that England eliminated
    peremptory challenges in 1988. Of course, there is still an unlimited
    number of challenges for cause.

    Troo enough, but one of is in jail now and he's still surviving. And fucking
    complaining. They should bring back the death penalty just so we don't have
    to listen to the **** whingeing that he can't watch kiddy pr0n while he's
    locked up:)
    I don't know of any recent cases where a sex offender/child murderer has
    been topped by another inmate.

    I'm sure there *are* cases, but I've not heard of any that I can recall.

    FWIW, some women advocate claiming instead of rape, that an attacker
    was only a pervert exposing himself, on the grounds that perverts and
    child molesters get treated so badly in prison.

    In the UK all that gets them is a slap on the wrist and sent home with
    a warning.

    Don't they go onto a list of some sort - sex offenders list? But I've heard
    that sniffing the little girls' bicyle seats will get one on said list, so
    not very telling then.

    Something like that, yeah. Rape is, after all, a crime of violence.

    We have:
    http://www.meganslaw.ca.gov/
    If you delve deep enough, it gives a photo of each, their description,
    crime, and address.
    For the UK, there is:
    http://www.kidshield.co.uk/sex_offenders_register.htm
    I didn't go too deep, so not sure how much info there is on each
    offender.

    It's pretty scary, knowing how many perverts there are.
