If the Saudis bombed strategic targets in the US...

... for several years [consider several 9/11 equivalents, for example], destroyed the infrastructure and economy of the country and killed a million people to liberate the Americans from their shallow lifestyle, then promised to get them a more Islamic society and installed their chosen puppets as government while simultaneously promising to use their gazillions to rebuild your economy, would the American people welcome them as liberators?

edit: feel free to apply it your country, if you're not American.

They could reduce gas prices to 70 halalas a gallon [which was the price the year I landed there]. Would that work?

 

I have to say a gun. The Saudi's are pretty socially conservative. They chop far too many heads. I can see bringing their judical brand in to clean up the corruption in congress and the executive branches of our government...corruption = axe treatment.

 

They have Pardon Committees too. It may actually advance your society to realise that forgiveness is an option in justice.

 

we do

 

might help with the republicans

everyone else is coming to realize that it doesn't matter how much oil costs now and how much can you drill, it will end

You can appeal to forgive a convicted criminal?

 

who, me?

no, my nose fell off, unfortunatelly

 

Yes, as long as there is grounds for appeal, if there is an indication that the convicted criminal did not receive a fair trial.

 

No I mean a confessed -convicted not innocent- completely guilty- criminal.

You don't pardon an innocent person.

 

/frown

this is sci
evidence please
a pic would do

 

The justice system is all about sending a message to society.
If you forgive the guilty, you take a dump on the society's sense of justice, and make people think that they can get away with committing crimes.

 

first-degree > second-degree > manslaughter ala extenuating circumstances

 

a moving target

 

Yeah revenge and retribution, code of Hammurabi et al. Old as prostitution.

Beware those in whom the desire to punish is strong- old Jungle saying

I don't see a pardon yet.

 

ok sam, give us a reason why we should pardon criminals
