I would have absolutely no problem sticking my 9mm in his mouth and pulling the trigger. I wouldn't lose a minutes sleep either.

I know it's not a funny question but that made me laugh. It's EXACTLY what the Duke would have said and I could hear his voice as I read it. :)

I don't think I could personally execute someone, no, no matter who they were. I have a problem with the idea of killing people, even people who essentially deserve it.

It's a conundrum, Jan. I have nothing but loathing for these people but I'm totally opposed to the death penalty. It'd solve the problem, of course, but where do we stop? Surely other crimes are equally heinous, if not as emotionally charged.

It all depends on what the pedphile did. I mean, there is a huge difference between a pedphile and a child m0l3ster.

If they were simply a pedphile and just that, I'd try to get them some therapy. I wouldn't treat them any differently than a homosexual.

Homosexuals ARE NOT PEDOPHILES.
Homosexuals should be treated with respect and dignity just like you treat your mom and dad.
PEDOPHILES are 💩 on the bottom of your shoe. Yuck.

I didn't say there were pedophiles. I said they're pretty much in the same boat. I don't believe attraction is something that can be a choice, because I know I didn't choose to be heterosexual. I think we should also treat both homosexuals and pedphiles with respect and dignity, but give them some kind of therapy to help them with their problem.

Only if I were a licensed representative of the state and the execution were legally sanctioned.

But emotionally, I probably would not want to be involved at all.

I don't think I could take a life unless it was in the heat of the moment and a matter of survival. So If I caught someone in the act of molesting a child, I probably could. If it were after the fact, I don't think so.
