> What exactly did you say, Rude?

lotta rubbish, most likely

i agree, let's end this

some countries have the death penalty, some don't

if your country's choice really irks you, move

in canada, we have had several prominent cases of convicted murderers
spending a couple decades locked up, only to be released later with full
pardon when the evidence (e.g. dna) cleared them unequivocally

can't retroactively do much after applying the death penalty except say
"oops"

that doesn't speak to the deterrence issue, which will likely remain
controversial

so yeah, let's get back to booze and music

and sex

let's talk about sex
