Long live peer pressure.

For a crime like this you may be right. The death penalty may be a worthy punishment. That isn't the issue though. If somebody says they have done something it doesn't mean they have. A confession alone can't be solid ground for a conviction. In this case, already there are doubts over this...

That isn't the same as capital punishment though is it? I never said we should ignore what they say and not investigate them. daclassicgamingmaster however, said that if somebody confesses to something then they are proven to have done it and the death penalty is a worthy punishment.

If I was an innocent person, locking me in a small dark room indefinitely would be equally unjustified. I may even go as far as to say I'd rather be killed. A lot of people admit to a lot of things. It doesn't mean they did it.

You highlighted the wrong part, so I corrected it for you. Just because I don't use it doesn't mean that it shouldn't be there. I know many people that use their camera, and MP3 capabilities. My phone isn't 'cluttered' either. In fact the interface has improved markedly from my previous phone...

What experience of Sheffield do you have Kop_007? Mine is limited (one year) but some of my best nights out have been there, and I've been to most cities. It's also something like the safest city in the UK. Personally I would just go to Manchester. Partly because I'm lazy, but also because...

My phone only cost £25 (post christmas sales) but it does colour screen, [admittedly rubbish] camera, MP3, calendar and all that rubbish. I doubt I could have found a cheaper phone but it seems people go out of their way to hate modern technology. It's not like all of these things push the...

Free will isn't a religious concept.

As Dzz just said, that doesn't follow. Morality is a human invention, physical law is a human discovery.

Atheist born and raised. My parents went out of their way to make sure I was never religious. I think that's the right way, because I would have believed it if they told me God existed.

You haven't explained why it wasn't lost. All you have done is described what happened. Anyway, there were goals. The aim was to stop North Vietnam expanding into the South. They failed.

We don't need another hero.

I doubt there are in excess of 5 million sunnis unaccounted for. Even when Saddam was in power, and the Sunnis the favoured group, there was no evidence that sunnis outweighed shi'a.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Iraq Religions: Muslim 97% (Shi'a 65%, Sunni 32%), Christian or other 3% Don't go spouting lies. Also I want a coup. Let's have one now, it'll be fun with all the weapons that I HAVENT GOT. I agree, although I wish they would just fuck off and stop...

It's his third term; he was still considerably popular by the end of his first term and was elected with a second landslide.

These establishments are all private property; privately owned and privately run. If you choose to eat there you do so on the terms of the owner. If they say smoking is allowed then you either accept this or move on. In your house, or in another place where the owner doesn't accept smoking...

Was that written by someone on here?

This isn't true, because I don't smoke and I get far fewer girls than anybody smoker. This is because I am a loser. Maybe I should start smoking. Also 1 cig = x minutes is bollocks.

Well they actually enjoy it too. One of them didn't smoke for about six months and then decided he preferred smoking so he started again. Seems ridiculous to me but he was serious. There's a lot of things people spend a fiver a day on for little enjoyment anyway (e.g. petrol). Also not...

I know loads of smokers that don't regret it. They might later though.
