death penalty

a lot of ppl probably have heard about the "about to be executed in 2 weeks" of a viet - australian man in singapore for drug smuglin. personally i'm still un-decided on death penalty, although i do lean a bit towards no-death penalty. its always hard with these kind of things, both sides have very good arguments, and i'm just happy i'm not the one to be executed.

one thing that happend, was the massive reaction from the australians. there was rally for nguyen, call for boycott of singapore products, call for MORE government intervention, support from all sort of groups, religious or secular. a huge reaction and support for a confessed criminal. but i'm telling u now, its all BULLSHIT !! these ppl don't give a shit about the life or death of a criminal, wat these ppl really want is to show who is the boss. they couldn't have said it clearer "its not the indonesian, not the malaysian and certainly not the singaporeans." think about dis, if ur frend have done something that opposite of wat ur opinions is, will u go as far as telling him to do wat u want or otherwise u'll tell about the time when he cheated on his wife? its called black -mail it does not solve anything, its not goin to change ur frend, its not goin to do any good except make u feel like u have the power over him. see my point? tsk tks.... and they wonder why foreign relation is so strained......

on another note, religious group should never be concerned with politics, there is no reasoning to a mob of religious fanatics, its either their way or the pitchforks. tch !!
