yet another inocent person dead at the hands of a crazed and derranged gun man in America, when will this man quite it!
What does everyone think the police should do when they find him? i think the govournment should bring back capital punishment and perform a public execution for this killer/s and all sex offenders too!
What do you all think should happen when they find him? be sentanced to death or put in jail or what?
Bear in mind however that if the police did get the secret message correctly he will strike at a schol next! not good.

I don't believe in capital punishment so I don't think he should be executed.
What a c**t!!!
But until then, he has left very few clues to his identity. So far the police are looking for a man, they have no other idea about who he might be.
Don't believe in capital punnishment so No they shouldn't kill him but they will if the state has the death penalty.
I wonder if there is any real evidence that the shooting of the man outside the restaurant at night IS linked to the sniper. If you were going to Hit someone having a crazed sniper running around would be the perfect cover don't you think.
I mean, what good would it do anyone? odds on there'd be a riot, for a start.
I don't think there'll be an execution if he's caught in dc/maryland because I'm fairly sure they don't have the death penalty. but if he does it in a state where they do then wherever he eventually gets busted (and surely he eventually will) he'll be executed.
I'll tell you what - I'm passionately against the death penalty in any case, but this guy pushes me as close as I get to being for it. This is the most extraordinarily evil thing to do, and what makes it all the more horrific is that he's clearly rational - he's clearly a guy who thinks extremely clearly. At dunblane or something it's a brief, horrific spell: this guy has to think about it again each time and still carries on doing it.
I also read that he may have used a pre-recorded tape of his demands and a voice thingy (You know it messy up your voice) so that may suggest he maybe mad but not stupid!
I think it maybe he could be linked with real terrorists, and if not its just highlighted to the US how vulnerable they really are!
Maybe the sniper/snipers isn’t a ‘real terrorists’ but a mad man on a crusade to clean the street! Maybe he’s watched Taxi too many times. Whatever he is, I hope he/them are caught and killed soon!
Apparently he's an ex-soldier, but the fact that his surname is Muhammad will no doubt send everyone into a craze.
Apparently they caught him through fingerprints found in one of his notes. A fairly basic mistake for someone who's eluded the police so well.
I wonder if it will inspire copycat killers and give terrorist ideas.
Glad they’ve got the bastard tho!
You being serious Harmless, got an argument mebbe?:rolleyes:
Not a given name, but a chosen name. Lest the significance of the difference escape you...
Nope, I wasn't being serious, but in hindsight killing him with his own gun maybe a fitting way to end is life. Some sort of twisted justices.
I don’t see how you can debate on killing a man that murders people, whether his motives were geed or him being insane, or even him being a terrorist he should die.
If this gentleman they have at the moment is the sniper I hope he gets death and not a life sentence
Mmmm - so it's only murder when he does it but not when the state does it!!! Then it's just a killing!! lovely
Surely the fact that they are 'mad' will mean that deterrance has no effect, I think you have just prduced an argument againmst capital punishment...........
lol I'm sure half the people in prison will agree with you there!;)
Well yes, "The state" as you call it, is here to protect me. The sniper is working for his own cause (Whatever that maybe) So I wont see them in the same light!
Fact 1.
The trial and execution of a prisoner in the US is more expensive to the taxpayer than a life imprisonment sentence.
Fact 2.
There is no correlation between the use of capital punishment and successful deterrance.
I mean explain to me please how keeping someone is cheaper for the tax payer than killing them quickly???
Beg to differ...
Have yet to witness a validated occurance of recidivism after the miscreant has been executed.
You show me an example, then I will gladly re-evaluate my position...
Incorrect.
Ballistics verified (this afternoon, PDT) that the weapon siezed had been used in the murders.
A man serving life imprisonment without parole is hardly going to commit further crimes against the community is he?
He might commit further crimes against fellow inmates, but then none of you lot give a shit about them anyway.
Funny how a country that is absolutely obsessed with, and driven by religious beliefs shows such disregard for human life.
Explain that to the citizens of Texas, thru Colorado, who dealt with a crime spree by escaped convicts who were serving life sentences... and the families of the ones they murdered during their spree...
Is not a "disregard for human life", but, rather, a greater value than you would seem to possess. We put a greater value on the life of those that murderers would kill in the future, than the miscreant. You? Value the miscreant.
Capital puninishment is a reckoning, not retribution. But then, understanding that would tax your emotionalism, would it not?
Sorry guys.
The islamic connection is just another interesting aspect of this case, and again, I have a feeling that I referred to this as possibly being connected with terrorism.
Whoops.
Perhaps you should all listen to me a little more often
It takes on average 12 years for an inmate's appeals to be heard, judged upon. On top of that are re-appeals, payment of lawyers, payment of court staff, you still have to pay whilst the inmate is on death row for prison costs e.t.c.
It costs, on average $14,000 dollars more to kill a prisoner than it does to keep them in prison until they die of natural causes.
There is no sound argument for killing a prisoner, it is a simple act of barbaric retribution, nothing more.
And prisoners wouldn't be able to recommit their crimes if you did a better job of locking them up.
There are 95% less escapes of prisoners now in the UK than there were 10 years ago, with the number of escapes about 1 or 2 every 2 years. Each escape will consist of 1-4 prisoners.
This is without arming our guards.
Maybe, the USA could learn a lesson from us? Killing a prisoner brings no benefit to society.
Not to mention that they chose to elect one of the biggest executioners in the history of the US as their President.
