I hate it that here violent criminals and sexual offenders get very light punishments. They're working on fixing the later a little bit, but still.
I understand, it's strange to me that in countries like Japan, Canada, or the UK a serial killer might actually get out of prison after serving less than 10 years.
Not sure where you obtain your facts but Japan executes multiple murderers by hanging. 9 juveniles have received the death penalty since 1966, 8 of them have been executed.

Yes I'm aware that they have the death penalty AND they do a maximun of 10 years. Not every murderer gets a death sentence in that country.
I'm not a idiot. (And do NOT say you didn't say I was because I know you were thinking it!
) I do actually know some facts about Japan.

Japan broke the contract with France and occupied Airfields. All we did was stop giving them oil because of it and THEY bombed Pearl Harbor. Damn... are you saying that we should've kept selling it to them so they could kill more people? You're speaking out of both sides of your mouth. Life doesn't become more precious simply because it's lost, en masse. It's either precious, or it isn't. Which is it? You sound like the people in the US who only get stirred up when a kid brings a gun to a school, but screw the poor kids in dangerous neighborhoods who get shot, one by one, by their neighbor.
They bombed a military base that wasn't even in the US. The US nukes 2 cities.
They attacked a part of the US ARMY. That's an act of war. The US nuked two cities after HOW LONG, John? Three friggin years, and they had a way out. But, they broke the treaty and occupied critical Indochina airfields. You're just like Twizty. You don't care how many people die as long as it's an orderly process. Load, fire, drop dead, repeat... As opposed to load, fire, all drop dead and no repeat. God forbid 300, 000 people all fall dead at once, instead of 3,000 a day for 100 days.

How DARE you say I don't care if people die when you're the one who keeps defending the fact thst we nuked two cities! THAT DOES IT! Don't ever claim that you 'like' me outside of discussing politics ever again because now I know how you really feel about me!

That's cute. For someone so keen on holding people accountable for historical things, he does have a bit of an issue with learning from his own history, doesn't he?
