Nothing is perfect in this imperfect world. We still give police guns to do their job. The outcome of their job is not perfect and people get killed occasionally. We don't disarm them because of the deaths that occur occasionally. We shouldn't take capital punishment off the table because the justice system is not 100% perfect. We need to do everything humanly possible to fix the system. Convicted murderers still need to receive capital punishment. We just need to do it very carefully and scientifically to ensure there are no errors. The medical system sometimes makes mistakes. They did with me and with my sister seriously affecting our hearts. We don't stop providing specialized medical care because some make mistakes. We carry on and do the best we can as a society. We don't shut down the highways because people get killed on them sometimes. In fact, we still let a lot of people drive who are reckless and break the traffic laws constantly. Another case of failing justice that costs thousands of lives. In fact if a drunk under influence driver kills someone, he only gets a few years and then he is out free again while his victim is dead and their family suffers. That should be the same thing with the justice system. Don't let convicted murderers escape what they are due.

So says the liberal who claims to be a Christian conservative but rejects the basic tenets of Christianity and the Bible. Seriously, get a grip. Have you ever posted anything other than trying to appear to be on both sides of an issue?

Canada must strive for a criminal justice system that makes no errors. Instead of thinking negatively, think positively. In cases that are iron-clad where there is scientific evidence such as DNA or other things, there should be no question. It should end in capital punishment. Every case needs to dealt with on its own merits. If there is serious doubt, then of course there should be no capital punishment. Allowing murderers to escape capital punishment is no solution. It is a capitulation to evil of the worst kind. We have hundreds of murders in Canada and people do not feel safe in many cities, parks, etc. This is because nobody has confidence in the justice system. How could they when known dangerous offenders are repeatedly arrested and released on bail or parole? How could they when criminals are given lighter sentences because of their racial background? If there is anything positive about the idea of medical assistance in dying, it may be the idea of using if for convicted murderers. There is no other justification for MAID. Making MAID available to people with mental illness and people that suffer housing problems, financial problems and handicapped people just shows how degenerate our society has become. Allowing murderers to escape capital punishment is a serious form of mental degeneracy. It is not protecting the law-abiding citizens.

I already said quite clearly a number of times the system needs to be changed so there are no errors. You chose to ignore that. Abortion is clearly killing people. Not sure how you live with yourself. Want to kill innocent humans but no capital punishment for murderers. Yet you don't see the contradiction in your thinking.

Not necessarily. That is your claim but is a lie. It is hypothetical. They were eventually released, correct? The justice system needs to be improved so that errors do not occur. That is the answer. The authorities need to find ways to ensure that verdicts are 100% correct. Not giving capital punishment for murder, is letting them off and punishing the victim's families. That is not justice.

The Bible teaches the pre-born are people. The Bible also murderers should receive capital punishment. How do you manage to oppose what God says? Do you believe in God and do you believe in the Bible? Deal with it.

You want to avoid the subject because you know you don't have a leg to stand on. You are ok with killing pre-born babies, but oppose capital punishment for convicted murderers. Very warped. Again, you show your mental state. You're ok with killing babies in the womb, but want murderers to escape capital punishment which God ordained in Genesis 9:6.

What governs your conscience? If not God's written revelation, then what? Demons?

Since the Bible teaches a pre-born baby is a human from conception, how do you square that circle? Who are you to say a pre-born baby is not a human at any point and killing it is acceptable? You are saying your own thinking comes before what God says in his written word, making yourself a higher authority. Isn't that how Satan thinks?

So you pick which commandments you will accept based on whether they fit your left wing ideology or conservative ideology. We know who your god is and it isn't the true God of the Bible. The god of left wing ideology, or Marxism/Socialism is Satan and his host of demons.

You said killing is wrong period. Now you're admitting police do it sometimes. What about "a woman's right to choose", i.e. abortion? Do you support that?

And these same nations, like Canada, brought in catch and release so we have the disaster of a justice system now with dangerous offenders being constantly released into the streets. Over a thousand tent cities across Canada with crime and drugs out of control. Plus rainbow flags and crosswalks. The new woke culture. We have a generation of heathen and woke. Canada is a disaster now.

Sorry to burst your warped bubble, but the whole Bible was written by Christ. Christ is God.

They don’t execute people. So if the police kill people, you agree with that because how they did it, but if the legal system executes convicted murderers, you oppose it. Very mixed up thinking.

How do you know? Cause the criminals said so?

How do you explain the fact police shoot people sometimes?

Did you know something like 50,000 people a year are killed in the U.S.? So it appears you would rather allow thousands of people to be murdered than give capital punishment to a small number of duly convicted murderers. You are advocating saving a few murderers from capital punishment at the expense of the lives of perhaps thousands of innocent people. Why are the lives of convicted murderers more important than the lives of innocent citizens?

You are the one who dismissed the Old Testament. So how to you explain that? You dismissed it but now referred to the ten commandments as if you agree with them. You are contradicting yourself again. If you accept the ten commandments in the Old Testament, why would you not accept Genesis 9:6 in the Old Testament? You still have not explained that.

Do you know anything at all about the Bible? Appears you don't. The ten commandments are part of the Old Testament. Do you think most of the ten commandments still apply today? What reason do you give to say God's statement ordaining capital punishment in Genesis 9:6 would not apply today? Can you give a clear explanation?

Not claiming to "speak for God". The Bible is God's inspired word or revelation from God. Do you believe that? If you don't believe the Bible is God's written revelation, why are you even mentioning God? What God are you talking about or what God do you believe in? Obviously you don't appear to believe in the God of the Bible. If God communicated to mankind with the Bible, why would he not expect man to quote what he said?

Again this subject has nothing much to do with Trudeau and the Liberals. We all know Trudeau and the Liberals will be out of government within the next 12 months. The subject is just a general subject about using MAID for capital punishment for murderers. Nothing to do with the existing Liberal government which opposes any capital punishment and does not support law and order.

Nonsensical comment. Nobody is talking about Trudeau. Capital punishment would have to be based in the law and the law is implemented by the justice system and courts. Of course this is not likely to happen under the Liberals.

Do you think the police have the right to shoot someone in self defence or to defend the other citizens? Do soldiers have a right to shoot the enemy in battle in defence of their country? Does this prove there are exceptions to the command thou shalt not kill? Do you support women choosing to have abortions (freedom of choice)?

Very childish. Read the Bible. There is far more in the Bible than one word or one sentence. I just quoted Genesis 9:6 and you totally ignored it. Do you think God inspired men to write Gen. 9:6? Why did God ordain capital punishment there?

No. Never said anything about giving power to Trudeau. His time as PM is limited and hopefully he will out soon. Who gets capital punishment is decided by the courts and laws that govern them anyway. Nonsense. Who else is responsible for law and order? We just need a government that puts law and order at the top of the agenda and understands their job is to protect the public.
