Should we also punish families of criminals?

Hows the policy working for Israel?

What kind of fucked up reasoning is that?

But I suppose while we are at it why don't we execute every man, woman and child related to death row inmates? Surely they must somehow be responsible for the wrong doings of their relative.

In fact those should be at lease investigated and if found to hide a criminal, their families terminated as well.

It could be some kind of viral pattern applied to justice

Depends on the situation really.

I don't think we should place kids who were taken away from their parents due to abuse in the hands of said parents' immediate family, for example. Birds of a feather and all. We should at least ask some hard and invasive questions before we do.

But outright punish them? This ain't NK.

Think about it, they raised a criminal and their very existence allows the gene to thrive.

Its only moral to not just treat the symptoms but actually cure the disease.

If you failed education of your child and caused harm to the community I see no reason why you should not share the blame aswell.

Forgive me for taking obvious troll bait, but I have to point out:

Someone somewhere in your genetic line has committed a crime at some point in history. So, bai.

I think he's taking Trumps idea further.

ISIS members usually aren't American, huge difference.
US government cannot execute American civilians, they can execute non-americans.

Nope and its stupid to even consider it.

Everyone has had someone in there family history that has committed a crime. By your logic everyone would be punished.

There's stupid, then there's whatever this thread is.

Given the OP seems to be advocating murdering a vast amount of people, we're closing this here.
