I thought that, all issues considered in detail, I was a moderate moderate very close to the socio-political middle. Yet, based on reading posts from different people, I think that I may be a moderate Democrat thanks to your intellectual honesty and sensible responses.
Unfortunately, I still trust Rudi more than I trust Hillary to be a good sensible president. Oh well. I guess that I am not perfect. At least Rudi is not an ultra-Right wing Republican.
eye witness accounts? do you have any idea how many death row inmates convicted on eyewitness testimony have been exonerated by DNA?
Every single death row inmate was convicted on what District Attorneys felt stongly was "solid evidence". Can you imagine asking a jury to sentence someone to death on anything other than "solid evidence"? Can you imagine sitting on a jury and voting for the death penalty on anything other than "solid evidence"? Yet the proof is there that lots and lots of men were sentenced to death on what was certainly "solid evidence" who were, in fact, innocent.
Are you supporting a law that says only those criminals with DNA evidence proving their guilt should be executed?
More importantly, do YOU know how many people have been convicted on eyewitness testimony and been exonerated by DNA? Show me the overwhelming statistics before making information up, please.
excuse me: please show me where I ever suggested that there were "overwhelming statistics" before putting words in my mouth. Are you suggesting that there have not been convicts sentenced to death on the basis of eye-witness testimony? Are you suggesting that none of the twenty-some death row inmates whose sentences were commuted en masse by the governor of Illinois were on the basis of eye-witness testimony?
You asked a rhetorical question without answering it. You are suggesting that there are a large amounts of people put to death based on eye-witness testimony alone, yet base it on nothing. I would like to know how many people have been put to death and later exonerated since you use it in your argument you should know how many...even a ballpark figure would be acceptable, citing a reliable source, of course. Please link the source for the twenty-something death row inmates whose sentences were communted. It sounds very interesting.

sorry i was posting on another thread and am now reading what you posted...quite contentious arent you? i will deal with you and your confrontational attitude later, after I have read your news articles.
You will excuse my tone...it was all predicated on your understanding the difference between "sentenced to death" and "put to death". If that was an incorrect assumption, I apologize.
in light of your last post, I do apologize. You really are too fucking stupid to understand the difference between being sentenced to death and being put to death. I really have no business losing my temper at a retarded man.
My assumption was incorrect. I apologize. I look forward to debating you on many issues. I am sure we disagree on the war and politics in general. Although I am new to the forum, I assure you I am not under informed and my presence will make you a better debater.
