The worst thing about being tried by a jury is the prospect that someone like Pissflaps might be responsible for deciding your fate. Bad enough you get a dozen loving idiots presiding over your case, but what happens when deliberations go on for 17 weeks because Pissflaps can't agree with

For those that are interested, the Supreme Court has uploaded the docs and timetable for the Article 50 hearing: https://www.supremecourt.uk/news/article-50-brexit-appeal.html Hadn't realised Scottish and Welsh governments have both also submitted cases against the Gov as "interveners".

The punishment/retributive side of prison is removing them from society thereby suspending certain freedoms for a specific length of time. It is possible for prison to be both this (punishment) as well as a place where prisoners receive reformation in a specific manner This isn't hard.

Namtab posted:Pissflaps is using retribution when he means punishment lol @ dictionary definition: retribution: punishment inflicted on someone as vengeance for a wrong or criminal act. punishment: the infliction or imposition of a penalty as retribution for an offence. So retribution is a punishment, and punishment is the imposition of retribution. Right, got it.

Many people on Twitter saying Labour canvassers told them to vote Lib Dem. Labour were indeed stupid to stand a candidate. Whichever way it goes, Labour gets negative press.

There's really only three motivations people have to commit murder. 1. Profit. These types of people kill for personal gain. They also think they're smart enough to not get caught. The only effective deterrent is to make sure people's needs are met. 2. Passion. The type of person who 'snaps' and kills out of impulse. Your classic 'Find your lover in bed with another person, you snap and kill them both' etc. The only effective deterrent here is to raise people who are well adjusted enough to not go over the limit, or massively reduce the stress in people's lives. Security and safety goes a long way to protecting against this type. 3. Compulsion. Genuinely mentally ill people who are compelled to kill. Serial killers etc. The best deterrent here is proper access to well funded mental health services, in addition to the removal of the stigma associated with mental health problems. If there is genuinely no help yet, then humanely keeping them separate from society is probably the best option. Retribution doesn't work against this, and isn't actually a deterrent for any of these types.

Another Tory out of a job, huzzah! Not that he will have to sign on, mind. Also, do the monster raving loony party always run that chap who looks like Boss Hog from Dukes of Hazzard? He must have money to burn, all the deposits he has lost. I'm mostly surprised a Tory keep their word.
