The context is relevant.

And she wasn't 'taken to pieces' by Hislop. Not by any stretch of the imagination. He was quoting lazy arguments from a bygone era.

What if she was arguing that it's acceptable in the most extreme circumstances?

Can’t be arsed mate, you’ve patently drank the Kool Aid if you’re prepared to belittle yourself to the point of trying to defend Patel advocating the return of capital punishment.

After your weird defence of eugenics, this is your worst one yet. Arguments of a bygone era?? For not supporting capital punishment??? Your slavish dedication to right wing ideologies is laughable. Patel utterly embarrassed herself and you haver here.
 


Full debate there (in 2011). Here she is trying to dismiss her own comments as though 4 years is a 'long time ago'.


Look, the acoustics in that room were terrible, patel can't be held to account for what she said in complete context when we can completely imagine her saying something else. Hislop was using age old data from months ago against the modern idea of capital punishment, and it would ruin whiteys idea of porn in killing poor folk.

You can almost imagine the scene in the Home Office, where the civil servants are the Hislop character, bringing reasoned evidence to the table, and Patel just shouts incoherent gibberish and demands they get the unfathomable done.
 
Oh, and never mind the fact that American has the highest incarceration rate in the developed world, so the notion that it acts as a deterrent for anything is patently absurd. As we've seen on here in recent weeks, the notion that you actually use evidence to support your fairy tales is for the birds.
Im also a bit sick of this 'right to justice' nonesense. Can't we just all think 'that guy looks a bit shifty' and hang them at that point just to be on the safe side.

It's also self satisfying punative nonsense from violence obsessed idiots who have no interest in the time or public money being spent preventing the social and econmic circumstances that create crimes. The death penalty crowd just want to jizz themselves silly about being 'tough on crime'.
