The Death Penalty for or against? YOU be the judge

In this blog the opinions I state are only MY OPINIONS so i dont wish people to call me up for them.


I am personally AGAINST the death penalty in all forms. A recent discussion on facebook made me want to relook up all the facts i had read that set my opinion.

Fair enough i may sound like a hippy and as someone said i may feel different if my parents were murdered and the guy was just in jail. You may also feel different if your family members were on death row. Even more so if your family were on death row for crimes they did not commit.

And dont act like there were never people on death row who werent there by accident.

Allan Gell Faced the death penalty and was on death row for FIVE years for crimes he did not commit he was quoted to say "I cant explain what it feels like at all to wake up each morning on death row with death looming over you and you dont belong there"

In 2004 after 5 years on north carolinas death row allan gell was released from prison when it was discovered that the two whitnesses against him lied to the police. Why would they do such a thing? The whitnesses had commited the murder Mr Gell had been sentenced to DIE for. not good enough?! On the day of the murder Mr Gell was ALLREADY IN JAIL!! for a previous crime of car theft. If the system is so strong and powerfull and looks at all the facts im sure they could have looked this up. WHY DIDNT THEY? and what makes this case more fucking annoying?! When this evidence did appear it took the state 2 YEARS to retry him.
this is rediculous. must be a one off right? WRONG. According to the death penalty information center since since 1973, 121 have been released from death row because they have been found non guilty or the charges against them have been dropped.

I shall move on and talk about my main reason for hating the death penalty it is inhumane
since 1976 there have been more than 1,000 exicutions in the u.s
152 electrocution
11 by gas chamber
3 by hanging
2 by firing squad
817 by lethal injection

Hanging Was said to be humane because it would be a quicker way for thinner people to die yet it has snapped the heads off of people.

Then there is the firing squad i fail to see how being shot is humane in the slightest

then theres the gas chamber which isnt an exact science some inmates will have different chemical balances to others so when the cyanide tablets drop it may not be enough to kill them.

and what about exicutions?
There have been some really badly done exicutions this way where the inmates head catches on fire there are pictures of a shirt that was worn to the electric chair im not gonna post it because it was incredibly graphic. The inmate was burned so badly that the skin on his face MELTED OFF and went down the front of his shirt. How does this continue?
So people by this part of the rant say the lethal injection how can you say that isnt humane?
Well to start the goal of lethal injection isnt to make it easier for the person being killed its for the person killing to have an easier time. But let me explain what happens in a lethal injection before i start.
First you are strapped to a table or whatever
the exicutioner puts two needles in your arm incase one gets clogged
assuming there is no call from the govoner the exiction begins
First you get 5000 grams of sodium thiopental... it puts you to sleep for about 30seconds
then you get about 100 grams of Pancuronium bromide it parylizes your lungs and diaphram so you stop breathing.
And finally you get some
Potassium chloride which induces cardiac arrest. 2 minutes later a doctor pronounces you dead.

Sounds peacefull eh? A study published in a medical journal which examined details from autopsys in 49 exicutions over different states doctors found that 43 of the 49 had lower levels of the sleeping medication sodium thiopental than required for surgery 21 of thoose had low enough concentrations that they were likely to be awake and aware what was going on. so if you dont get enough of the thiopental you would stay awake and the pancuronium bromide stops you from moving but does not effect your awareness which means those 21 may have experienced suffocation and intense pain without anisthesia and without the appearence of suffering,
the study concludes that this method of killing fails to meet the standards for putting down animals.


I dont think any human being should suffer this if a human being cannot be rehabilitated they should be put in solitary confinement for the rest of their days. Prison is a big enough punnishement for any criminal i dont believe in eye for an eye. My studies may sound biased so i invite you to go have a look into the death penalty and draw your own conclusions.


I leave you with this,


If you support the death penalty and even one innocent person is killed and killing an innocent person is murder then YOU become a murder.



thanks for reading

Devline™


Devline™


I get the feeling i should take the time to explain my latest thing Devline™ as alot of questions are starting to arise on the subject.

Devline™ is going to be my clothing line i decided to set it up as i've always wanted to make t-shirts and sell them but been to afraid so i showed some friends scetches and they were entusiastic about what i had came up with so i decided just to go for it. Im not sure how popular it will be or how long it will last but atleast i iwill have tried :)

Im going through one of those faises

Where everything is shite but everything is good.
Im sad but im also incredibly happy.
I'm bored but i've never been more busy.
Im confused but everythings so simple.

its strange how your at your happiest when life is completely out of control.
I honestly dont know what to do with myself at the minute my feelings are exploding and going mental. I absouloutly love the feeling of chaos and everything being out of control. Although alot of people are starting to get nervous about me. but its like i keep saying to everyone Im only gonna live once, so lets have fun go mental and if i burn out before old age i wont mind as ive had my fun :) god this blog is going downhill and making it sound like a sucide note I promise you all mr devlins gonna be here for a while yet!

Girls & Boys

Was reading the paper this morning and i came across this and thought it might interest my readers so here we go.

There is a saying which goes: "A sons a son untill he takes a wife, a daughters daughter forlife." and a new study seems to prove it's true

The survey carried out by costa has reavealed that a sons loyalty to his mother switches when he gets a girlfriend.
Mums might spend years caring for their darling little boys but it seems they are always destined to loose them to another woman.
The poll also showed that mothers come second to best friends in the loyalty stakes of their grown up sons.
Women, on the other hand, tend to stay close friends with their mother wether they have a man in their life or not.
But this is far from the only difference between the sexes.
from the moement we are born, our gender can dictate just about everything from how quickly we learn to how we play and relate.
Here we rake a look at some of the most crucial differences

IN THE WOMB
scientists have discovered that boys and girls behave exactly the same in the womb, its only once they are born the gender differences begin to emerge.
12 MONTHS
Babies show preferences and behaiours based on their sex. Even at this tender age girls are all about people. A study carried out by psychologists at cambridge showed that little boys would rather watch windscreen wipers than people talking. The girls prefered the latter.
Boys are also much better at working out the laws of motion than girls at this age. where as the girls suprise suprise are much quicker when it comes to learning to talk.
18 MONTHS
By this age girls and boys show typical gender stereotypes. One study showed that if 18 month old children were shown a picture of a doll or a vehicle, Most of the girls would pick the doll where as the boys would opt for the vechicle. Scientists also carried out a simmilar experiment with monkeys and the male always opted for the toy car where the female always opted for the doll.
AGED FOUR
Even girls who are brought up wearing a wardrobe that never favours pink generally hit the age of three or four and want to wear nothing but pink.Boys are not as bothered - their appearence is low on their list of priorites.
ADGED SEVEN
If you put a group of seven year old boys in a room with lego they will always try to build the biggest possible tower. But girls will always build something more meaningfull, like a house. They will also spend time discussing the project as they build, redesigning and improving
AGED 10
Girls are programmed to be more polite than their male counterparts. Given a lemonade drink made with salt rather than sugar, the majority of 10 year old boys refused to drink anymore.
But the girls continued to drink politely untill being pushed into revealing how they actually felt about the drink.
TEENAGE YEARS
Scientists discovered that for girls aged between 12 and 18 most of their attention is taken up with getting a boyfriend. Whereas boys of the same age have an equal interest in sex and cars and sports. This carries on into adulthood woment talk about relationships,people,diets,clothing and appearence. Men talk about work, Money, Polotics and the mechanics of things. To teenage girls, friendships are crucial and scientists have proven girls are more likely to use drugs if two or more of their friends did. Bots are more likely to get into drink and drugs if they regard it as normal amongst their wider age group.
ADULTHOOD
There is a reason between why men are so bad at housework - it is in their nature. Give a man a task such as take the bin out or cleaning the windows and he will do it. But he'll never notice that the room needs hoovering or the laundry bin needs emptying the way women do.
But there's a reason why skills like parking and reading a map can be tougher for women say scientists, they claim that women who struggle did not get enough testosterone in the womb.
Testosterone boosts the brains right hemisphere which controls spatial awareness.
Men and women also handle the break up of relationships in very different ways, a women will cry her heart out, talk to her friends endlessly about the situation and listen to sad music to get up and on with her life. A man has more trouble letting go. Six months down the line he is still holding on to all the hurt and heartache. He is probably sending ill advised drunken texts too.
When a woman reaches the menopause she goes through a varity of emotional and psychological and biological changes. In a man, it provokes uniform reaction - he buys aviator sunglsses, driving gloves and goes shopping for a porche.

hope it interested you as much as it did me

The Internet.

The internet is an addiction there is no cure.
We sit on it every night having the same conversations with the same people and call it 'social networking'.
We are members of every new website that pops up: Myspace,Bebo,Facebook,Myyearbook,twitter,msn to name a few. We go on theese websites every day check them then sit bored on msn forcing pointless chat asking people we care about how there feeling then sit akwardly for a while.
But we cant help it we wonder if someone has commented us messaged us and things like that.

I think we should beat this addiction!
Right now im going to turn off my computer and go do something
you should to

Peace out

omg i couldnt help but laugh

If you can read this without laughing, you must be devoid of laughter cells......

This was originally shown on BBC TV back in the 70's. Ronnie Barker could say all this without a snigger, though God knows after how many takes. The irony is, BBC received not one complaint. The speed of delivery must have been too muchfor the whining herds. Try getting through it without converting the spoonerisms [and not wetting your pants] as you read....... This is the story of Rindercella and her sugly isters. Rindercella and her sugly isters lived in a marge lansion. Rindercella worked very hard frubbing sloors, emptying poss pits, and shivelling shot. At the end of the day, she was knucking fackered. The sugly isters were right bugly astards.. One was called Mary Hinge, and the other was called Betty Swallocks; they were really forrible huckers; they had fetty sweet and fatty swannies. The sugly isters had tickets to go to the ball, but the cotton runts would not let Rindercella go. Suddenly there was a bucking fang, and her gairy fodmother appeared. Her name was Shairy Hithole and she was a light rucking fesbian. She turned a pumpkin and six mite wice into a hucking cuge farriage with six dandy ronkeys who had buge hollocks and dig bicks. The gairy fodmother told Rindercella to be back by dimnlight otherwise, there would be a cucking falamity. At the ball, Rindercella was dancing with the prandsome hince when suddenly the clock struck twelve. "Mist all chucking frighty!!!" said Rindercella, and she ran out tripping barse over ollocks, so dropping her slass glipper. The very next day, the prandsome hince knocked on Rindercella's door and the sugly isters let him in. Suddenly, Betty Swallocks lifted her leg and let off a fig bart. "Who's fust jarted?" asked the prandsome hince. "Blame tha! t fugly ucker over there!!" said Mary Hinge. When the stinking brown cloud had lifted, he tried the slass glipper on both the sugly isters without success and their feet stucking funk. Betty Swallocks was ducking fisgusted and gave the prandsome hince a knack in the kickers. This was not difficult as he had bucking fuge halls and a hig bard on. He tried the slass glipper on Rindercella and it fitted pucking ferfectly. Rindercella and the prandsome hince were married. The pransome hince lived his life in lucking fuxury, and Rindercella lived hers with a follen swanny!


hope this gave you a laugh like it did me
