Same here, but a death penalty wouldn’t prevent me from doing so in that instance and that is an extreme example, most who commit heinous crimes of murder regardless of circumstance do so mainly because they are psychopaths and again, a death penalty wouldn’t be a deterrent.

Was watching a documentary on the moors murders, and those poor parents and family members who had to listen to recordings of their child being tortured, abused and murdered must have been absolutely horrific, and personally I don’t think I would have called them nutcases for wanting to exact revenge if they had the chance. Though not murder, I was also thinking about the Dutch keeper Robert Enke there who committed suicide after his daughter died. Such a horrible thing to go through and grief of that magnitude must be so hard for people to cope with. It’s quite easy for us to say things without going through these things.

BlueStar Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I think the debate around the death penalty for child murderers is a bit of a separate one to that around capital punishment in Saudi Arabia, where you can be put to death for adultery or witchcraft.

For the death penalty you need a few male witnesses (presumably two male witnesses saying you did it outrank 20 female witnesses who say you didn't as their testimony isn't allowed) Saudi Arabia's War on Witchcraft A special unit of the religious police pursues magical crime aggressively, and the convicted face death sentences. https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2013/08/saudi-arabias-war-on-witchcraft/278701/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheHoob Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I'll probably explain this badly but I do think that 'sportswashing' gets thrown about a bit lazily at times as a bit of an easy criticism without much thought behind it. Sportswashing obviously exists, and no doubt Saudi in part at least have purchased Newcastle as a way of raising their profile, perhaps with Newcastle being a very public face of their investment strategy with diversification, further investment into sport etc. But I don't buy that they've bought us and are potentially going to be spending billions just to have Gary the roofer from Benwell defend them on twitter under some BBC news articles, it just doesn't really make much sense and becomes a very easy to stick to beat us as fans with, which is where I've got a problem with it.

The amount of NUFC fans on Twitter defending the Saudis has been equally grim. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
