no, not even "worthless child killers." i'm not mad at or resent those types of people, i feel sorry for them. they probably had a bad life, bad parents, picked on, ignored, or what have you, and the only way they saw fit to cope was to kill, or all the negativity directed toward them from "innocent non child killers" turned them into bad people. it's not the best idea, i admit that i have considered killing people, and i'm sure it would make me feel better, but i would never actually do it. i used to be the most non violent person, but my dad and others just made my life miserable and i started turning crazy and acting out violently, so i had to get out of that house and i went back to normal.
the only way i could see it being okay is if the prisoners volunteered to do it, because i'm big on the idea that government shouldn't tell us what we can and can't do, as long as it doesn't hurt other innocent people. so if 2 prisoners mutually agree to fight to the death, then more power to them, but i don't see many people volunteering. they may seem so tough and ready to die, but when you give a specific date on when they'll probably die (especially if it's just optional), they'll turn into pussies like that.
I don't like it at all when people act as if child-killers (or other criminals for that matter) bear NO RESPONSIBILITY for their actions and attribute everything to their bad childhood and stuff, with tears in their eyes. Sure, those thing may play a role, but you are STILL responsible. To deny that is a sign of a weakness and lack of character in my view. Besides, for the killing of a CHILD there can NEVER be mitigating circumstances.
ah yes, keep on being all high and mighty, and looking down and judging those who haven't figured everything out like you have. There's a reason only God can judge people. For instance, only he can fully know and understand what a person went through, how little choice they had, and how/if they could of possibly turned out better. and why legally insane people can rightfully get out of any prison time for murder.
"ah yes, keep on being all high and mighty, and looking down and judging those who haven't figured everything out like you have."
I'm not being all high and mighty. I'm just pointing out your argument doesn't hold water. Also, I've never said (or implied) I've figured everything out.
"There's a reason only God can judge people."
I don't know if there's a God (that's one of the things I haven't figured out), but I assume there isn't one, since there is NO proof. Anyway, you are saying that no-one can judge, which is bullshit and pretty much a judgement in itself.
i'm not going to get in a religious debate with you, but God or not, His principles still hold true. being judgmental is a piss poor quality(and one of the absolute worst imo) to have and it's why there is so much hate and negativity in this world.
IIN I think gladiatorial fights to the death should be reinstated?

But what if it are just some wortless child-killers who fight (and kill) each other? What's wrong with THAT?

"being judgmental is a piss poor quality"
Isn't that a judgement in itself?
