AggieDave 6 #29 August 30, 2004 Quoteyes. Texas is only #2 in executions, still trying to catch China. That doesn't mean that we go beyond the bounds of human rights like China.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Ron 10 #30 August 30, 2004 QuoteI hope that our leaders can see more shades of gray than that. I am not a cop, nor do I want to be. But if I saw someone being raped and I could do something about it I would. I wouldn't say to myself "I decided to not be a cop, and therefore the only other choice is to not get involved at all." You can't have it both ways Bill.. You can either support efforts to make other leaders "fair" (Like you don't in Iraq), or you can not bother to care...(Such as Sudan, Cuba, China, Korea)."No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms." -- Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Jefferson Papers, 334 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #32 August 30, 2004 QuoteThat's debatable. So you're saying that Texas has children sweat shops churing out Nike's, etc and basically has no civil rights. Come on man, we even use clean needles for our executions.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhillyKev 0 #33 August 30, 2004 I didn't say it was beyond the bounds of China's human rights violations, but definitely go beyond the bounds of human rights in general. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who's definition of human rights? The European Union's definition is definitely violated by executions.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.
