Amnesty international is a group of [[gay|far left leaning]], rich, white, over educated organization of [[leftard|libtards]] that believe that it is their right to claim that a people's religion is wrong and their god a fraud so that they can come in and replace the current [[cult|group think]] with their own when it comes to the death penalty. | |||

Much like the [[Clinton]]s who have monetary interests in private prisons that are built for profit, AI would rather see prisoners ware-housed and stored in prisons indefinitely because they have decided that this is the best way for private citizens to feel safe. | |||
== Jesus and the Death Penalty == | |||
[[File:Chuck Heston 7098.jpg|thumb|right|250px]] | |||
One of the problems with the [[Bible|Christian Religion]] is that 100% of the people who believe that Jesus is a go-to source for someone who is against the death penalty and are looking for cool lines to quote are wrong. Many of those that are against it accuse those who are for it of putting words into Jesus' mouth to rationalize their stance. | |||
The problem with any book, idea or soundbite is that most people are so [[fuck]]ing stupid that they have no idea about what they are quoting. For instance, many argue that Proverbs 13:24 gives them the right to beat the [[shit]] out if their child quoting, "Spare the rod; Spoil the Child", when it never says those words. What they are actually quoting is an old poem, ''"Hudibras"'' by Samuel Butler. ''"If matrimony and hanging go/By dest'ny, why not whipping too?/What med'cine else can cure the fits/Of lovers when they lose their wits?/Love is a boy, by poets styl'd/Then spare the rod, and spoil the child"'' | |||
Proberbs 13:24 acrually says ''"He that spareth the rod hateth his son"''. The quote is making a metaphor to sheep herding and discipline. <s>A sheppard's staff has a crook on the end of it so that the sheppard could grab a sheep around the neck and gently return them to the fold. It actually directs parents to lead by [http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2005-03-13/news/0503120312_1_corporal-punishment-rod-hudibras example].</s> This seems like conjecture. The verse goes on to say, "but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes." Chasten does not mean lead by example. It means reprimand, or punish. It is true that "spare the rod, spoil the child" is a contemporary English paraphrase of the Biblical quote. It's difficult to draw any coherent instruction on parental corporal punishment from a few verses in Proverbs, especially given the lyrical and often allegorical nature of Biblical literature, and I can understand the appeal of a "gentler" interpretation. However, there's no reason to blink eyes at an ancient Jewish culture having different attitudes to childrearing than the contemporary West, and to dismiss it out of hand in exchange for something more comfortable. | |||
First and formost, as the laws of Moses are proper proof of a [[G-D]] fearing man's right to the Death Penalty, "An eye for and eye." (Exodus 21:24), Jesus also noted that this law was correct and should stand when in Matthew 5:17 He said ''"Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil”''. | |||
Many open-minded, so called enlightened liberal types try to argue Matthew 5:39 ''"But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: | |||
but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right | |||
cheek, turn to him the other also."'' By claiming that Jesus is rejecting the laws of Moses and retributive punishments. | |||
While Jesus may be speaking to a group he is also speaking to the individual and telling them that they have just as much responsability over an event as the person who provoked it and it is their place not to let the problem escalate with self defense or by becoming offended. Matthew 5:39 is rather Confucianist in its lesson saying that, "If you, yourself, don't go seeking a punishment, then none shall be given. If you rather give up your coat then have it stolen from you, then no one took anything from you by force." | |||
The [[Catholic Church]] has in recent times been gravitating toward a strong anti-capital punishment sentiment, with recent popes such as John Paul II and Francis advocating its abolition (Benedict XVI being more ambivalent). It is a matter of debate between theologians: for two different perspectives on the matter see [https://edwardfeser.blogspot.com.au/2015/03/capital-punishment-should-not-end.html here (pro)] and [https://www.firstthings.com/article/2017/12/against-capital-punishment here (against)]. | |||

The Death Penalty (also known as Capital Punishment) is a permanent IRL banhammer issued by the government. It is loved by conservatives and hated by liberals – who ironically have absolutely no qualms about vacuuming a dismembered infant out of a woman's vagoo. When you have done something so heinous, so unbelievably despicable, you may qualify for the death penalty, depending on the state you're in, as some are pussies and don't execute faggots. If you live in Asia, expect a death sentence at pretty much any time. Those chinks know how to get things done. If you live anywhere else, you are safe because you live in a pussy nation.

America
Some states like Texas and Florida love to execute you, while others like Alaska and Hawaii are dumb cunts that don't know how law and order work. Executions performed in America are done by lethal injection because the libtards are crybabies about firing squads and the electric chair. When someone is sentenced to death, it takes at least 100 fucking years to execute them because America's courts suck ass. Despite what those retard libtards want you to think, there's a better chance for you to die with a needle in your arm if you're white. For some reason, this loser country still has a problem putting chics in the chair despite their rising statistics. Watch out for White Knighting, sissy states like Ohio because as white women only make up 27% of the Murder victims in Ohio, 65% of the people executed in Ohio murdered some White, ass bitch.

Amnesty international is a group of far left leaning, rich, white, over educated organization of libtards that believe that it is their right to claim that a people's religion is wrong and their god a fraud so that they can come in and replace the current group think with their own when it comes to the death penalty.
Showing how far the world had degraded to an unrepairable level under the Socialist leadership of Jimmy Carter, Amnesty Internal began in 1977. Holding an International Conference in Stockholm Sweden AI made its first Terrorist demand on the world when it delivered its manifesto to the world demanding the abolishment of the death penalty across the world which won it the 1977 Nebel Peace Prize.
Amnesty International basis its pussy, liberal arts ideas on the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights from 1948 that says that people have 2 basic rights.
- The right to life
- The right to live free of torture
Despite some Murderer or Serial Killer breaking into a person's home and depriving a person of these rights, AI claims that Legal Systems have no right to do the same to these before named examples.
Amnesty International accuses countries of being inferior to their beliefs and ideals by claiming that the death penalty is inherently wrong as they accuse the legal systems of foreign nations being beneath them, flawed and corrupt. AI claims that the death penalty is being illegally used to control and reduce the numbers of unwanted people such as homosexuals and political protesters such as journalists with kangarroo courts that falsify evidence so they may kill unwanted populations and avoid the stigma of dictators who use mass executions for the same goal.
