There is no such thing as "secure confinement" outside of the grave, which is the whole point of the thread. Besides, I have no interest in paying for someone like that to live in air-conditioned comfort while he runs his cartel by smuggled-in cell phone while waiting for the tunnel to be completed...

It's not about the addict, I don't care what you put in your body, it's about the murders to facilitate the manufacture, transport and distribution of the drugs that concerns me. Murder may or may not be a suitable justification for the death penalty, sure. Me, I'd prefer jailing them in Supermax f...

I'm not really sure that selling drugs should be a capital offense. Me, I reckon if you buy and use those drugs, you own a little responsibility for yourself.

No you aren't. You're blinded by your ideology, biases and bigotry. I'm not blinded by anything, I don't have an ideology, and I'm not a bigot...I'm just right and you are all wrong. Get over it. 1) You don't know my point of view, because I haven't voiced it. 2) I don't think you're a bigot. I hav...
