    I started the movie but stoped after 2 seconds. I don't want to see another person die. It's inhuman to me :/

    Mihaidamianov, as I stated in BIG BOLD letters, do not watch it if you do not want to. It's your choice whether or not you click that link. I feel that I should report your post too due to its rude, uncalled for content.

    Although I have no interest in actually seeing Saddam being killed, I whole heartedly support the death penalty. I'm all for eye-for-an-eye. If someone rapes, they should be raped. If someone kills intentionally, they should be killed intentionally. ETC. Why should my tax dollars go to feed and entertain someone that is rotting in jail for 50+ years?

    Well, I didn't mean that they would be raped by a hot blonde chick with big tits. More along the lines of a big burly black man with an unlubricated broom stick, but castration would be fine too.

    Right. But the actual cost of execution does not come anywhere close to the cost of life imprisonment. The appeals process, etc. is simply drawn out to buy more time for people on death row. I guess we should just make justice more swift, like in the case of Saddam.

    Vicious, in the U.S., he's right. After all appellate avenues are exhausted, it costs more to murder someone than let them rot in perpetuity, no possible appeal. This is fairly well documented. A quick comb of the web yielded a report put out by the Washington State Bar Association: http://www.wsba.org/lawyers/groups/finalreport.pdf. Please see pp. 31 et seq. for summary conclusions on the finances of capital v. agg. murder, non-capital penalty cases. This report squares with what I know from working in the field.

    On a personal level, I agree with John Dunne. Any man's death diminishes me. I own that I have a ferocious personal sense of protection for my family, and would not hesitate to end a life in protecting my family if needs be. But equally I own I have no right to take a life once that life is incarcerated without hope of reprieve. I mourn the evil that Hussein wrought, just as I mourn the ritual killing of a defenseless, though evil, man. To kill a prisoner is to murder, and I cannot condone it.

    Edited to add: Saw your second quote after I posted. We have in place the right of appeal as the death penalty is by definition final, and the appellate process is designed to ensure all possible errors to judgment have been removed. Summary execution will never be a part of our landscape - and as I loathe the Taliban, for instance, I am glad for it. That said, the fact that the appellate process is in place for capital cases means the cost exceeds life imprisonment cases.

    I did watch both of the videos and i dont see anything that offend me or like nothing wrong. He got back what he did to others, you know Karma :D. I was however surprised that he was so calm, i didnt expect that but oh well god knows better who is right and who is wrong and weather he is going to heaven or hell :eek:

    I think the day he was 'killed' was the wrong day to do it. Mainly because it's a religious holiday (Eid) for Muslims, I do notice there were not of intresting reports on the news of how 'People started celebrating'. Naturally I'm sure it must have ad something to do with the religious holiday.

    I noticed in how the death photo supplied to the new, Saddam's clothes had changed.

    honestly, it is quite sick that people feel the need to watch the life being taken of a fellow human

    This is sick, anyone who wants to see another human being die is sick. People will go spreading this around for humour but SOMEONE JUST DIED, it's not funny, just look at what the link is called: humourupload...

    No matter what anybody has done they shouldn't be killed, it's pointless, saddam would have just as little power behind bars than if he was dead, plus in prison he would have time to think about what he did.
