Halibut Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Yes he is, but isn't it better for him to be here where we can keep tabs on him? Yes, it probably is, good point cressida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeMaquis Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 What is it about not respecting the laws of other countries, why do some think that we are in some way superior to the people of other countries and that our laws should supersede their laws? Is this the first time you haven't thought that the British are better than everyone else? It's to do with torture, something you must have grasped by now. You are implicitly arguing that torture abroad is no worse than our system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANGELFIRE1 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 One smallish plane. one parachute or not (depends how PC you are) one flight over Jordan, one open door, one hefty kick up the jacksey and hey presto as if by magic all our problems with this convicted terrorist will be history, as he would be if I had packed his chute for him, aghhhhhhhhhhhhh hope my 72 virgins are waiting for me:help: SPLAT.

My late uncle used to dismember dead Germans for their rings and watches, because they did it to his mate, god only knows what he did to live prisoners. Suffice to say, I don't agree with you.

No I’m not I’m arguing that, their laws are their laws and it’s not our business to tell them what to do, if I was to break the law in another country then I would expect to be punished according to their laws. We would expect them to send a Britain back to us to be punished by our laws if the Britain committed crime here and fled. You are implying that we are in some way better than them, we are superior and we know best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you actually adressed the issue of whether or not you believe torture is something you're happy to condone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just stop all his benefits. He will then have to find a way to get £600 a week to fund his lifestyle, that would keep him occupied. Hard to preach hatred when your running out of food, and are trying to keep a roof over your head. Just ask anyone who has been made redundant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This bloke seems to condone blowing up innocent people going about there everyday lives. If he hates this country so much, clear off to a country that meets his needs better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSmith Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Have you actually adressed the issue of whether or not you believe torture is something you're happy to condone? I believe each country should determine their own laws and as we are not superior to them we have no reason to assume we know best and shouldn’t interfere with the laws they make. If a one of their citizens commits a crime they should be punished according to the laws of the county they commit the crime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plain Talker Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 What is it about not respecting the laws of other countries, why do some think that we are in some way superior to the people of other countries and that our laws should supersede their laws? Do you not think that the British legal system is much more humanitarian and treats its prisoners with much more compassion than, say somewhere like Thailand, or Brazil?
