Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth - Matthew 5:38

Show no pity: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot. - Deuteronomy 19:21

Anyone who maims another shall suffer the same injury in return: fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; the injury inflicted is the injury to be suffered. - Leviticus 24:21

If any harm follows, then you shall give life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burn for burn, wound for wound, stripe for stripe. - Exodus 21:25

...also somewhere in my Bible

The threat of payback is the greatest deterrent to violence IMHO.


Do you think we'd be talkin to Iran or N Korea if they didn't have weapons?

Maybe not for ALL offenders, but on the hole yes absolutely! Currently there is virtually no deterrent as lawyers are given the leeway to plead down their pirps. cases. It's all become a Circus, as the attorneys get to decide who will and who won't sit on a jury, based on how strongly they feel they can manipulate their thinking or beliefs. The whole process has become more about the attorneys win / loss record than serving justice. And then we move on to our rather posh country club like prisons across our country, where they enjoy better health care than most law abiding citizens, @ some they can hold a job and earn money, with all our political correctness in the mindset of the masses we're more concerned with rehabilitating the criminal than making them PAY for the crime!!!! It has been proven that some violent crimes ie: rape / child molestation, when it comes to rehabilitation it just doesn't work. Yet we continue to violate the rights yet again of the victim who've already been through that private hell once. We must ask ourselves why do the largest majority of us never even consider perpetrating a violent crime while for others it's an every day occurrence.........and if the answer comes back as it most often does (lack of good parenting skills ie: teaching your kids right from wrong, humility, morals etc.) then we must also make the parent responsible, and they too pay a price!!!!!!

Public whippings and hangings would send the right message.

That gringo kid in Singapore never spray painted another car, now did he?

As soon as the gavel falls, hang them from the courthouse steps ... Bring Back Public Executions.

Oh, that's right. We're all a bunch of liberal wussies ...
