That's like comparing apples and oranges, my friend. No one is disputing that people like James Holmes need to be locked up FAR away from regular society.
I agree that life imprisonment works if it truly means spending the rest of one's life in prison. If a jury can prove beyond reasonable doubt that a person committed a crime heinous enough to warrant such a sentence, then lock them up and throw away the key. I'm with you on that.
My issue (and therefore my "mentality", as you call it) lies solely with capital punishment, and you can try to twist it any way you see fit, but the bottom line is this: there is something immoral and hypocritical about punishing someone with death for killing another person. No offense but I think you're coming from a rather naive and idealistic viewpoint. There are people guilty of crimes so heinous, so evil - people that make Holmes look like a choir boy by comparison - that simply life in prison is a slap in the face to justice.

Ah, I get it completely. People associate Hitler will all that is evil. However, the recent Olympics situation shows him as the saviour, who with all his mystical fortune telling and cult beliefs, probably knew that the Jews would one day try and destroy the world
As yet, nothing has happened with the Olympics that warrants the British government to bring in martial law to halt the chaos.
You really lost me on this one, DeMeo. He pretty much lost me from his first post and definitely when he posted about children.

You know you're hitting close to home when someone responds with something like this which DeMeo did in a PM to me: "As someone with Asperger Syndrome who is above normal intellgence, I'm not suprised that you can't follow what I'm saying!"

The internet is a wealth of information. As to the Olympic situation, the '2012' in the logo actually spells Zion when it is rearranged. True. And the Olympic Anthem, when played backwards, says, "Turn me on, dead man." Ha ha ha ha!!!  I thought is said "Paul is Dead." TIS

Also, other then the SAS and French special forces, the American FBI, CIA and Israeli Mossad are in London dealing with the security.
The other day, I asked the question to someone: What the bloody hell is Mossad in London for? Like David Icke said, "When you began to piece together the jigsaw, eventually the picture will appear." Does anyone else hear "Twilight Zone" music playing?

If you can see a contradition in my post I would love it pointed out. It's approaching the time for you to stop trolling. Or get back on your meds.
