Thread: Death Penalty or Life in Jail? This is for your life

My first instinct was to vote "death", but I put LWP because I would probably not be able to give up my life voluntarily if push came to shove. It's an interesting question in the sense that convicted criminals don't get a choice and if they did, they wouldn't be able to choose death anyway because our justice system is so bent on doing the opposite of what they think a criminal wants. So technically, if one were to choose the death penalty, chances are there would be a backlash. Remember Gary Gilmore? And "Lanie" - if you are a female, you should know that women rarely get raped in prison - except by guards. It is physically impossible for a woman to rape another woman and that old Linda Blair movie was a bunch of BS.

You could always kill yourself later....

I take it you have never been to woman's prison or jail...of course woman cannot physically rape another woman with a penis...they are kinda missing that part, but they improvise...they use other objects and fingers and such. It does happen..and in women's facilities, they are more viscious against each other more so than most men would be. I don't know what movie your talking about, but I'm basing my opinion off reality.
