I agree with that part. If punishment is the goal, the DP is less effective than other means.

I am opposed to the DP for the follow reason, which I have mentioned elsewhere.

-The calculated, cold-blooded, premeditated killing of a defenseless, restrained human being who poses no immediate or realistic long-term threat is wrong. Period. For me that is enough in itself.

-If punishment is the goal, death is way too easy. In fact the DP isn't even really much of a punishment because the punishee has little experience of it. Once dead, it's over for him. No pain, no loss, no fear, nothing. It saves him from prison and, in this sense, it is to his benefit. Unless Hell actually exists, the offender has no significant experience of the punishment besides the brief time before, and even that discomfort is relieved by the DP. The bulk of the punishment is really being inflicted on the family and friends of the criminal who have to live with his death.

-It gives too much power over the individual to the state. The state should not have the power of life and death. They can't be trusted with it. Give them an inch and they'll take a yard every time. And it is an especially bad idea in a place like Cambodia where the judicial system is totally corrupt, and regularly and blatantly manipulated for political reasons.

-Courts are fallible. It could (and has) happened to innocent men, and its impossible to amend. My home state of Michigan was the first English speaking state in the world to outlaw the death penalty for just this reason.

Death penalty for dickheads then ? I thought he was doing a really good job of digging his own grave. (X-cuse any pun on the subject.)
You didn't need to ban him UT. Calling BS and a stoning would surely have done the trick.

Poster x was starting to sound a lot like our old buddy Captain America, I'm glad he's gone and was just giving UT shit for fun.

Or if you have keys for moto or house, shove them into his neck.

I believe she did manage to stab him with the scissors

Yeah I know that, my comment was more to reply to Prahkeitouj comment on if you can "kick him in the balls or blind his eyes with mud".

Keys can be a very effective weapon if used in the right way.

Really?
