.... the 8th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Th 8th Amendment states "Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted." This was meant to limit the severity of punishment imposed on an offender by judge or jury, but instead it creates a paradox with its usage of the words 'cruel' and 'punishment.' Webster's dictionary defines cruel as "causing, or of a kind to cause pain, distress, etc." Using this definition, one has to wonder how our justice system is suppose to punish criminals at all. Wouldn't every punis .....

.... planning, and that what happened to another individual who committed this offence, can also happen to me. But individuals who commit any types of crime ranging from auto theft to 1st-Degree Murder, never take into account the consequences of their actions. Deterrence to crime, is rooted in the individuals themselves. Every human has a personal set of conduct. How much they will and will not tolerate. How far they will and will not go. This personal set of conduct can be made or be broken by friends, influences, family, home, life, etc. An individual who is never taught so .....

.... a man so that he dies shall be put to death." (Exodus 21:12). The bible also suggests stoning a woman if she unmarried sex and had "wrought folly on Israel by playing the harlot in her father's house" (Deuteronomy 22:21) England recognized seven major crimes that called for execution by the end of the 15th century. These crimes were: murder, theft (by deceitfully taking someone goods), burglary, rape, and arson. As time went by more and more crimes were believed to deserve the death penalty and by 1800 more than 200 crimes were recognized as punishable by death. (Beda .....

.... a sermon at the Martha Vineyards Tabernacle in New Hampshire. He told his congregation, which included the vacationing President Clinton and his wife, that capital punishment is wrong. "I invite you to look at a picture of Timothy McVeigh and to forgive him," said Miller. "If we profess to be Christians, then we are called to love and forgive." Once the sermon ended, Rev. Miller, Clinton, and their wives got together for brunch at the Sweet Life Cafi. What the Rev. did not know was that 24-year-old Jeremy T Charron; an Epsom New Hampshire police officer was gunned down .....

.... punishment is among those instances of justified killing that has been debated for years, and continues to be an extremely indecisive and complicated issue. Adversaries of capital punishment point to the Marshalls and the Millgards, while proponents point to the Dahmers and Gacys.

When doing the actual crime, make sure that the victims or the police have some way of identifying who robbed them, a link missing from the chain mail so to speak. Some examples of this would be to sign a ransom note or to rob a bank without a disguise. Another nice thing to do is to smile for the camera when robbing a place that has surveillance. To be really dumb, one should always stick out like a sore thumb. Wear distinctive clothing such as a work uniform with nametags. N .....
