Death penalty ban in all circumstances: Protocol added
to the European Convention on Human Rights
Strasbourg, 21.02.2002 - The Committee of Ministers of
the Council of
Europe has just adopted a text banning the death
penalty in all
circumstances, including for crimes committed in times
of war and imminent threat of war.
No derogation or reservation will be allowed to
Protocol No. 13 to the European Convention on Human Rights.
The adoption is a strong political signal that the
death penalty is unacceptable in all circumstances.
The text will be opened for signature to all member
states on 3 May 2002, in Vilnius, when the Committee of Ministers
meets for its 110th
session. The text of Protocol No. 13 and its
explanatory report will soon
be available on <http://www.coe.int/cm>. For more
information, visit our theme file <http://www.coe.int/dossiers>
****
The Council of Europe represents a death penalty-free
area. No execution has been carried out on its territory since March
1997: 40 member states have abolished capital punishment, 3 others
(Armenia, the Russian
Federation and Turkey) have established a moratorium
on executions, and the
Committee of Ministers recently invited them to speed
up moves towards abolition.
It was the European Ministerial Conference on Human
Rights (Rome, 3-4 November 2000) followed by an initiative from Sweden,
which also underlined
the need to abolish the death penalty for acts
committed during wartime, or
imminent danger of war, and to amend the European
Convention on Human
Rights, whose Protocol No. 6 still contains an exception concerning
this point.
The abolition of the death penalty in all circumstances has been
recommended by the Parliamentary Assembly since 1994,
and reflects a general international trend. The Council of Europe is
the first organisation to have drawn up a legal text which
allows no exception.

A political organisation set up in 1949, the Council
of Europe works to promote democracy and human rights continent-wide. It
also develops common responses to social, cultural and legal challenges in
its 43 member states.
You cannot pick and chose those 'signals' that you
find 'good' and those you find 'bad,' since you are
obviously translating YOUR opinion into a valuation
of those presumed 'signals.' For whatever reason,
if you find this to be a 'signal' to OTHER sovereign
nations, then you are attempting to translate your
views into their society. Apparently when you see the
U.S. sending such 'signals' you get incensed, yet
when the EU sends 'signals,' you find them to be
applauded.
I'm just trying to make a small point, Earl. I have no
problem with your posting this. I only needed to also
put MY opinion into the mix. You are, in fact, quite

Gratifying news, Earl. When this Protocol is signed by all of Europe, as
I'm sure it will be (unless the Dirty Man decides to drag his feet again,
as he has done for almost every major decision in Europe over the past
couple of decades), this fair continent will once again confirm its status
as a beacon of human rights, its light dispelling the sick and revolting
shadow of legal killing from third world countries like China, the Yemen,
Iraq, and the United States.
Vive l'Europe !
==============================
"... this fair continent will once again confirm its status as a beacon of
human rights"
ROTFLMAO at this silly statement. Just one example..... ask the Jews about its
status as a beacon of human rights.
Desi, your just trying to rattle our cages with this statement. Right? As I
recall, millions upon millions fled "this fair continent" for America.
Oh yea, one other thing, America is not a third world country.
Jigsaw
Not Continental Europe perhaps but England certainly was.
Once again, Desi's statement is just silly. The Gross Domestic Product of
California exceeds that of France. Now let us talk of a 3rd world country.

I never claimed the US was _more_ 'moral', that would be foolish. We
(collectively, not me specifically) hide behind religion and claim morality
all the time; but it's all bullshit, of course. We are quite human and the
good among us do generally stick to the golden rule (either one, take your
pick), but we can hardly claim the higher ground - of course, Europe has
climbed in and out of the ditch more times than I care to count.

False premise Richard. The Council agrees democratically on the
Protocols and these then become binding on all members. The same
principle applies to all laws enacted by any Society or society.
Otherwise a vaild defense to a crime would be to simply opt out of
agreeing to obey a law you didn't like. I'm sure you can see the
implications.

Quite right. And it rather demonstrates that William Robert

Seeing as how you genuflect before, and draw your inspiration

trying to make points that any normal half-wit would prefer not

No, in the US you senselessly slaughter each other and then crow about

As I read the post, Craig, Protocol 13 is drafted and proposed by the
Committee of Ministers of the Council, and is now up for signing by
the member states. To me, that indicates it has yet to be formally
adopted by the states. In the next sentence, however, the news
release states: "No derogation or reservation will be allowed to
Protocol No. 13 to the European Convention on Human Rights." This
indicates no futher democratic action or discussion will be allowed
regardless.
Member states do not have to sign or agree with the adoption, but must
adhere to it.
It appears to me, just looking at the language of the release that
this is already a done deal irregardless of the number of states which
sign the Protocol and if that number is a simple majority or not.
Geez, Craig, I just asked the question what happened if one of the
nations refused to sign. I can but assume that a nation who did not
agree would have no choice other than to be forced to adhere to the
rules or be dismissed from the council with all the disadvantages
trade-wise that encompasses. Play our way or go home, eh?
That isn't democracy, that's legal blackmail by a bunch of want-a-be
United States of Europe.

Yet, the previous poster - Desmond - DID do the crowing -

The 'crowing' is coming from the OTHER side of the ocean.

day anti-Semitic practices in Europe. Tell your lies to a
Europe that STILL engages in senseless slaughter between
Serb and Muslim. Do you want to see the MOST HYPOCRITICAL
political statement I've seen since Hitler? It is today's news that
Serbia has today abolished the DP. While making the claim
that it has not been carried out in Yugoslavia in the past 10
years... see

the U.S., we do not SENSELESSLY slaughter each other,
and then piously claim we are abolishing the DP, and have
not used it in 10 years, while the dead and murdered lie

says "Europe does not violate its citizens' human
rights."
I am reminded of Chamfort -- 'If it were not for the government,
we should have nothing left to laugh at in France." Deal with

You will notice that my reference is in respect to a

2) The Lockerbie terrorist attack was caused by a wind gust.
3) Switzerland is not in Europe.
4) The dead cannot be honored.
5) It is Better that Theodore Frank be free to murder 3-year old
girls again rather than he be executed.
6) There is such a person as a 'selective' abolitionist.
7) He cannot tear his eyes away from the firm, comely, just turned
16 year-old thighs of Sarah Hughes.
8) Although defense is defined in the Oxford English Dictionary
specifically as 'protection,' in its main definitional meaning,
he disagrees, finding himself far superior in defining words.
9) Europe does not violate its citizens' human
rights. Bosnia thus also not in Europe.
10) America and The United States are not synonyms,
although every dictionary defines them thusly.

===========================
I can remember only one post made by Dezi that could be considered a valid
arument. All the other posts he has made have been attempts to belittle the
person he was answering. I guess it is just his co-dependant nature because of
his unpleasent, insecure childhood.
Jigsaw
It was actually directed at _both_ of you - you'll notice that I singled
neither of you out - and was nothing more than my expression of
amusement at a very silly exchange.
Your disclaimer will mean nothing if PV is developing
a persecution complex. Did I post 'if'? Talk about
giving him the benefit of the doubt.
I had thought dezi's hiatus might have caused him to
reexamine his flaws. And I was ready to operate from
a clean sheet of paper. But apparently it has only given
him an opportunity to hone those flaws to a dull point.
Abolitionists here need to realize that Desmond is the
WORST possible thing that could happen to their cause
in this newsgroup. Much worse that Don represents to
the retentionist side of the issue. And abolitionists need
to call him OUT every time he demonstrates his stupidity
to avoid being tagged as hypocrites themselves. John
Rennie is the ONLY abolitionist I see doing so, at an
acceptable level. It seems all other abolitionists are
somehow AFRAID of Desmond's moronic presence. I
will continue to point out the imbecilic statements I've seen
him make, which he certainly can't deny. Truth be told,
I've only scratched the surface of his stupidity.
Anyway, it was late, my button was pushed, and I simply
was not prepared to roll over and play dead for someone of
the caliber of stupidity that Desmond represents.

I've had a few too many beers with Des on one occasion. He's a very
nice chap. A very nice chap with whom I disagree about a great many
things. You will find my disinterested dissection of your posting
regarding the silly things that he's been known to assert.
I don't care about Donnie. He's a joke. A joke who has been extremely
vindictive and sometimes dangerous, particularly on comp.unix.*. Donnie
is billybob is Desis* is a freaking hydra troll. I enjoy provoking
Donnie. Des is, at least, someone who is prepared to post under one

I speak for _my_ cause, not everyone else's. Des can feel free to speak
for his and I don't regard it as an embarrassment any more than I regard
Donnie an embarrassment to retentionists. People only serve to
embarrass themselves when they express their views in a public forum.

I don't object to that in the least. Not in the slightest, PV. Nor did
I object to the exchange that prompted my posting. I just found it

I'll quote:
"QZD: Will you kids just _shut_up_. I'm trying to _drink_ in here."
Did I say "PV" or "Des"? No. The second sentence should have indicated

I think the point to be made is you never fail to respond
to a post from some of those here we all recognize have
a different agenda than you, who you strongly disagree
with. Yet I find you especially condescending to Desi
in particular. And Craig, where you assumed a brotherly
protective status when he began hissing his ugly venom.
And dirt, in whom you find much to find humorous when
he remarks on sex with another poster's Mother. If you
yourself, do not see the subconscious MENTAL
SICKNESS that is so obvious in those repetitive
remarks, I certainly can't make you understand. It is
certainly an axiom that there is a fine line between
brilliance and insanity in the style of dirt, and one can
usually see the direction it takes when the word Mother
or Mum appears in one of his posts.

You need to look a bit further than that. First you presumed
that it had STARTED with me, in your remark on our dialog.
Then you presumed it had ENDED with me, by directing your
post to MY comment. You may find it thin-skinned on my
part, but I am rather curious as to what you believe would
have been the response from Desi, had you directed it to
a post from him? I find it strange that we have dissimilar
viewpoints regarding the DP, and you claim that had nothing
to do with how you PRESENTED your comment. As I
said, it was late, like 2 in the morning, and you obviously pushed
my button. But I can tell you, that if I feel you have not
presented a balanced observation of shit like that which
happens, I will again remark on that fact. So I can only
say you should try to insure you ARE being balanced.
It would be much better if I didn't even have to mention
that.

Ah, but I was taking the piss out of the _pair_ of you. In the context
of the whole thread, this post appears to be _extremely_ graceless. You
were equally as guilty of pisstakeworthy silliness as PV and it might
have been wiser to admit it by remaining silent.
If you want to talk about monkeys and footballs, it appears that I am
not one of the former and they appear to be fighting for exclusive
possession of the latter.
Des deserves a spanking for crudely claiming some kind victory just as
you do for your implicit claims of knowing what I was thinking when I
posted originally.
1) God should protect murderers in an escape to Mexico.
2) The Lockerbie terrorist attack was caused by a wind gust.
3) Switzerland is not in Europe.
4) The dead cannot be honored.
5) It is Better that Theodore Frank be free to murder 3-year old
girls again rather than he be executed.
6) There is such a person as a 'selective' abolitionist.
7) He cannot tear his eyes away from the firm, comely, just turned
16 year-old thighs of Sarah Hughes.
8) Although defense is defined in the Oxford English Dictionary
specifically as 'protection,' in its main definitional meaning,
he disagrees, finding himself far superior in defining words.
9) Europe does not violate its citizens' human
rights. Bosnia thus also not in Europe.
10) America and The United States are not synonyms,
although every dictionary defines them thusly.
11) PV is 'evil' because he is Catholic, obviously presuming
ALL Catholics are 'evil.' Isn't that kind of thinking what
started it all from day one?
12) bin Laden, didn't plan or carry out the attacks of 911,
but he knows who did.
13) The Bush Administration,and Mossad also know.
Desmond places his money on either Israel, or Pakistan being
behind the attacks.
And the newly arrived --
14) The failure to scramble and shoot down the Jets taken
over by terrorists in the WTC attack, using F-16's
(mistakenly identified by him as F-15's for whatever that
means), offered 'crystal clear' evidence that such was
"a case of either criminal neglicence, (sic) or treason."
It just KEEPS GETTING BETTER.

I damned well would.
I've decided to stay more or less out of PV/Des flamefests just as I
have in the case of doggie/PV flamefests. They're entertaining to read
but walking in, no matter what your intentions, tends to get one caught
in a hideous crossfire.
PV has the staying power - doggie's and especially Desmond's responses get
weaker and weaker. They should try to do better - humour is more effective
than abuse.

Shut up you pompous old fart.
If one was to continue arguing nonsense with PV, one would simply be
there all day and night wading through a big pile of sanctimonious,
fundamentally flawed bullshit, trying to work out a coherent thread in
his reasoning which one may attack.
I has found that adopting the position of res ipsa locquitur is by far
the least painful approach once I have had my say (which, of course,
is always correct).
You should try to understand better, John, and not be drawn in by PV's
wind and piss which left you so patently out in the cold and wrong
regarding the ol' attempted rape and intent debate.
Good troll, though. OAPs united and all that.

Now, if I were you, I would incorrectly identify this comment as being
one laced with hypocrisy, since you have contantly alleged that I have
never had a "grip" to lose.
I am not you, however, and therefore shall simply point out that you
are contradicting yourself.
My "grip" on the use of apostrophes, however, is nigh on impeccable.
Yours, sadly is not.

I don't have to, sport. All we need to do is look at THIS post,
to see it. Or do you see nothing 'evil' in vicious, little indoctrinated
twats? What makes you try and DENY the obvious? Good grief...
I see YOUR posts as 'evil.' You can at least be HONEST with
yourself, and see the bigotry YOU display. I find YOU 'evil'
not because you are a group of ANYTHING... religion, country,
race. I find you 'evil' because YOU are evil. Not that you are
evil because you happen to be in a particular group, which
is what you claim of the Catholic religion. THAT'S BIGOTRY,
Desmond... and you should know it quite well.

No they're not! Desmond didn't use a greengrocer's apostrophe when he
said "F16s".

Not everyone is like you, PV.
Not everyone has such a high opinion of the value of their opinions
that they seek to characterise them as fact by using insidious
propaganda-speak such as the uttely valueless term, "evil".
Thus, even if Desmond does consider you a viscious little
indoctrinated twat, that does not mean he will claim you are "evil".
Again, what fails you is an ability to properly distinguish words
whose contextural similarity leads you to the misplaced conclusion
that they are interchangeable. "viscious" does not mean "evil", and
nor does "indoctrinated" or "twat". Just like a cetain "D" word
doesn't mean a certain "P" word.
Silly billy.

Let me make this clear. Perhaps for the first, but hopefully for the
last time. SG was a bigot... SG was a racist.... SG was a jingoist..
But, God damn it, there was just something lovable about that
ol' rascal. I could not FORGIVE him for being those things... but
I tried to move on and address those point where he had not
demonstrated those parts of his character. Now listen very
carefully, because I'm about to tell you something very profound.
"I don't find that lovable ol' rascal quality about you." Not even
one tiny, minute little particle. Don't take it personally (although
it is). I see others here that I cannot move beyond the faults I
see in them as well. With yet others, I can do so more easily.
I could draw on, and examine those points that SG made, which
laid beyond the faults I saw in him, and even laugh (albeit rather
a little uncomfortable in doing so) at some of the foibles I saw in him.
As hard as I try, I cannot raise myself to see you in the same light.
I would hazard a guess that this is because I see your character
as much more flawed then his, in spite of his faults that I saw.
And perhaps it goes back to our fundamental clash on first
meeting. It was obviously too deep to ever set aside, for me at
least. And you must admit, you obviously have some deep-seated
emotional problems, regardless of any presumed intelligence.
I don't say this in condescension, but in how I perceive you.
It's just that your flaws seems to go to your VERY CORE,
rather than the same faults in SG which seemed to be mocking
the idea, rather than insulting the heart of the idea. I have to say
that when SG offered similar arguments to yours, I seemed to
feel he was asking one to THINK, while I feel you reject that concept
totally, holding a philosophy that thinking is alien to our species.
Believing only insult survives. A rather jaded, totally pessimistic
and sickening outlook to me. When SG argued these points
you could FEEL that he wanted to push the envelope. I see you
only wanting to spit on it, with an innate HATRED that runs more
deep than one could EVER imagine existed with SG. Rest his
soul, probably in Afghanistan right now, having finished his 3
week accelerated orientation course at the CIA, and immediately
shipped out as cannon-fodder.

I wasn't asking you to compare St George to me, was I?
Read the post again.
That's right. I was comparing your reaction remarks made by _Desmond_
to far more "offensive" remarks made by St George.
Therefore your nonsense rant failed to either address the point _or_
cause any offence to myself, since I already know that you don't like
me, but sucked up to St George. You've trotted that speech out more
times than I care to remember.
What a waste of time that was for you....

Can you SEE how just a slight adjustment of names, changed
not one word of the meaning. You MUST realize how similar
your personas have become here. I always knew you were
both twits, but the past few days have been the 'twilight zone.'
The similiarities weird and might I say, almost frightening.
Almost as if one of you has went on vacation, and told the
other to 'take over my handle until I get back,' in some
back-channel communication. - probably part of the 'gang.'
