No one has a problem with punishment. No one here will advocate that anyone who breaks the law in any way should not accept the consequences. what we DO say is the death penalty is NOT the answer. No, but the punishment should fit the crime. How can you possibly say that 10 years in prison for the deliberate extinguishment of someones life is acceptable. The post I was responding to was downgrading the responsibility of the murderer to that it was only an accident and be nice to them, and they werent really trying to mean

You can have two people do the same type of crime and one will get the death penalty and another a slap on the hand. Where is the justice in that?

A very valid argument which carries alot of merit.As the DP is practiced today it is at the very best a haphazard thing.The most practical solution to this particular problem would be to make the DP a strict mandatory minimum sentence for all charges of 1st degree murder.

More fun from their board :
On the recent news story of death row inmates donating 5000 to a scholarship for a brother of a murdered child to become a police officer :
someone posted this news :
From DPIC
"Death row inmates from around the country will present a $5,000 college scholarship to Zach Osborne, the brother of a 4-year-old murder victim, who plans to attend East Carolina University to pursue a career in law enforcement. The scholarship is an annual award given by those on death row who participate in the publication of "Compassion," a newsletter that provides a forum for communication between convicted offenders and murder victims' families. Each year, a murder victim's family member is chosen to receive the funds based on the results of an essay competition. In his essay, Osborne wrote, "Natalie's death has haunted my family since the day she was found. . . . Through realizing this dream (of becoming a law enforcement officer), I would play a key role in preventing situations like this from ever happening again." Dennis Skillicorn, who is on Missouri's death row and serves as current editor of "Compassion," stated that the scholarship "gives every one of us - regardless of our living conditions - an opportunity to restore some of what we've torn down." Osborne will receive his scholarship during a 10 a.m. press conference hosted by the Greensboro Police Department on June 7.
Since July 2001, the prisoners have awarded $27,000 in scholarships. A free copy of "Compassion" is given to each person on death row in the United States. The newsletter's publication and its annual scholarship are funded by subscriptions from the general public and other donors. Members of St. Rose Parish in Perrysburg, Ohio, oversee the newsletter's funding and no death row inmate profits by participating in its publication."
and got these replies :
No freaking way (with a mad face)...Im just wondering what the catch is whats their angle?
Ahh yes I read this article earlier last week.I must confess it almost touched me........ALMOST.Unlike our fine friends the antis however,I was soon able to see thru the quise of this so called good will gesture.Firstly is it really the killers money they are giving?Or is it merely excess funds their scumpals have given them?Not many guys on death row have the 9 to 5 ya know!Then I have to wonder,regardless of where the money comes from,od their true motives for giving it to start with.Is this mere ploy to gain yet another frivolous appeal to save there wretched veins from the prick of the trustwortyanti crime venom?We have saw first hand here how decietful these mutts can be.They write there scumpals such nice guy letters,is it beyond belief that they could also make phony gestures of good will towards students?Personally speaking I see no value in their intent as it stands.If they truly wish to make a good will gesture I would propose that in addition to the monetary contributions they end all appeals and accept their fate.Then perhaps people would see the gift as a last ditch show of remorse and have a tad more faith in it.

a wise ANTI dp person posted
I'm just wondering if that's what is bothing some of the pros - that the pros give a lot of lip service to the victims - and these guys are actually giving money.
and suggested these pros who pretend to support victims match this REAL donation to victims.... (of COURSE none of these big talkers took him up on it)

and look! Our mikebook is a regular poster there now and typed this :
Dear All,
Recently, there was a thread asking for donations at this CCADP site...http://ccadp.proboards40.com/index.cgi?board=cases&action=display&thread=1117914600
A poster there said to donate to the victims families. I posted did he mean the families of the inmate or the families of the person that was killed by Charles Hood. He later posted that the families of the victims were taken care of... and the families of the inmate got nothing... But what of the cost of the funeral, the support to the victims surviving familiy, etc...
When I checked back a few moments later, those posts were gone...
Any idea of what to do next?
Regards,
Mike
these were the responses he got :
Quit bugging us with your problems there? Ok thats a tad blunt but you did ask for suggestions.
I would suggest just move on and forget about it....unless your a family member of the scum killer or the victim
Mike : No...It just made me angry...They want to show how much sympathy they have, but they do not want to see beyond their noses... I could use some help, however...
help ?
help to do what ?
Its CCADP for christs sake dude you might as well go after the ACLU too for all the good it would do ya
when someone said they'd like a return to the electric chair Mike said :
Prefer the headsman with an axe myself...

JBS said : 've been there to read a couple of times. I think it would take the patience of a saint and the diplomacy of Kissinger to be able to post there on a regular basis and not have every post zapped. Not to mention an infinite tolerance of double speak and general idiocy. I would probably be banned the first day. Not worth the stress for me. NOTE FROM CCADP - the only person who was ever banned was the IP who left awful messages on THEIR board to victims family members. And one other person who was banned for 24 hours; who I then emailed to let them know they were reinstated. Unlike the PRO board that has banned at least 10 people I know of; for NO reason. I still can't figure out why they banned me or a few others..... Ban, Ban, Ban. We have banned no one here except for obscene messages to MVS (one person; and those messages were not even on our board. SO GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT! )

On an upcoming execution :
LI (lethal injection) is too good. Does his death sentence keep ticking away despite his yes/no decisions? Somebody give him the Eight Ball. Burial near fire ant colony. Yes, that's the ticket!
Wheel this one into the PopcornMachine(tm), Erick. I'll let you push "Start."
It's just too damned bad they don't have LYNCHING as one of the selected ways to die. He is so <ahem!> manly. He'll probably go kicking and screaming. "...But he gave his word to go ahead with the execution, he says, and plans to follow through. Oh, YEAH BAAAABY!!!!
I believe supermarket coupons are still worth 1/20 of a cent each. That's more than the worth of any murderer's life.

Can you BELIEVE these are 'serious pro DP supporters' ? I LOVE this stuff; couldn't make it up; after I collect a few more I will be sending it to media contacts next time I see JFA quoted as a serious organization.

Did you see the posts how they gently want to execute a seven year old child?? I don't understand how people can be allowed to post that on ANY board. Seriously - something is wrong with some of those people!

Seriously - something is wrong with some of those people! Lene..i´ve even seen worse on Pro-DP site...this one Pro guy DIO for example even verbally sexually harrassed a 13 year old from CCADP page when the kid posted on Pro-DP page...we copied all that sh*t this verbal-pedophile wrote to the kid...but i have to add one more thing: thank god Charlene, the moderator of the Pro-board saw the post and deleted it immediately.....although she´s a Pro she´s a person with a strong sense of dignity and honor...i really respect her..
