No, this judge is guilty of false imprisonment, if I kidnapped you and
falsely imprisoned you for 3 years in a 6x9 cell where you would live
with another inmate, and prison officers who may turn a blind eye when
you were raped by the other prisoners, I should be expecting to die for
my crimes.

No, I support flogging of graffiti vandals (killing for repeat
offenders), and assasinations as a means of removing government
criminals, nuking is too indiscriminate.
