Legally, I personally believe justice should always be met. No exceptions.
Let's change the word justice to redemption.
And the word mercy to forgiveness.
That's how I see it.
For the guilty party, redemption gives the feeling of peace.
You did wrong and paid the price. A new beginning I guess you could say.
But here's where forgiveness comes in.
Once redeemed, forgiveness should always follow. Don't hold personal grudges against someone.
And don't judge. Know that the person has served his time.
I think EVERY CRIME SHOULD BE FORGIVEN.
When I say forgiven, I mean on a personal level. You still gotta pay for your crimes.
It's like when you were a child and your mother spanked you every time you did something really bad, but after that she gave you a hug and said let the past be the past and move on and never spoke of it again.
That's how I think the justice system should be. You do a crime. You pay the price. You're redeemed and thus forgiven.
I am HIGHLY against public humiliation! Say you did something stupid and it was caught on video.
You serve your time in jail. You come out and find that your "mistake" went viral on youtube.
And now you're famous... It's like the gift that keeps on giving. People wont forget. And for every one person who forgives you, there will be 20 more to take their place. I don't think that's right.
"What about a murder?" You do a crime. You pay the price. You're redeemed and thus forgiven.
"But what about a child rapist?" The same thing. You do a crime. You pay the price. You're redeemed and thus forgiven.
This is all just my own opinion. Don't hate me for it! ^^;
Get butt-ass naked and run down the street- Become the wild man I was born to be!
That and sneak around places I shouldn't be. *cough- *cough- women's changing room *cough-
Your name is George and you live in Britain? You wouldn't happen to have an older sister named Peppa Pig would you?
LOL I'm sorry, I couldn't resist! My niece has been watching a lot of Peppa Pig and It's kinda stuck in my brain... It won't go away...
Anyways, WELCOME to the forums! You're gonna have a great time here!
When I was 12, I tried to steal a Pokemon Sapphire game and a GBA.
I was caught and got my butt spanked when I got home.
Never stole again in fear of my mom's wrath...
I was diagnosed with schizophrenia when I was 16 and was given 3mg of risperidone to take twice a day.
I haven't had an episode in years( obviously when I'm on medication ) so I stopped taking them even though my doctor urged me not to.
The pills made me feel dull.
They made me feel very sick and just made me want to sleep all day( which I couldn't because one of the side effects was apparently a stuffy nose. I can't sleep with both my nostrils clogged up ).
It was horrible! I felt zombified!
But it's been a while since I stopped taking them. I haven't had a single problem since.
Circuit board, mouse, keyboard, monitor, microcontroller, logic gate, plug, c++, binary, transistor symbol.
That's all I can think of at the moment.
*OH! USB symbol! There you go.
