So it would have been ok if they had been killed in the 1970's with everything we know now?

But the police did falsify confessions and it would have been hard to grant appeals on any grounds if they had been put to death in the 1970's. They were totally innocent of those bombings but the state would have hung them all

Because you can reverse a decision and release someone or declare then innocent after their sentence, harder to put things right if you have hung them. The ability to appeal ends if you stop breathing

I know I keep repeating this but plenty of people have been released from jail after years after guilty verdicts and many appeals. When is it safe to says there is 'no doubt'.

And child killers who were found guilty but then acquitted later, what is 100% guilty, confessions have been false, tests have been wrong and altered.

I was trying to avoid having to write my second post as it was far more blunt and this is a football forum, thought people would understand what I meant by 'boys' in the context of a discussion about terrorists. I do not class them as 'men' personally!

The Sinn Fein politicians who may not be around today to hold high governement positions if it was the policy of the UK to put to death terrorists

Amen to that..............sorry did I say that outloud?

And lets not get started with the Sinn Fein boys!

Do you have 100% faith in our justice system? With the death penalty you have to be right every time, no errors at all, ever

WTF?

So the corrupt cops would be hung 30 years after the innocent men were hung they lied about? How does that help the dead innocent men?

The point is they did not confess, the police wrote the confessions, they did not do it remember! Who collects the DNA and tests it again?

The Guildford Four and the Birmingham Six confessed, that sounds like 100%?

Like the Guildford Four and the Birmingham Six? (an oldy but a goody)

Terrorists?

Not that many in this country I would have thought,
