Quote by BobaFett2haFrom a purely philosophical point of view, I believe the death penalty should be abolished..just because criminals kill other civilians, that doesn't mean the government should. However, I very much recognize that it costs money to keep prisoners in jail, so I know that it would be a difficult problem to solve.

I can understand if they killed for self defense or an accident... but other than that, these criminals are ruthless killers they deserve to die... the reason why I'm saying this is because I'm Christian... to God you have to give an eye for an eye. You take a life you sacrifice your own... unless it's war.

I don't really know. People are put in jails because the law just want to punish people and put restriction on a disorder society. Death is a form of punishment that serves to scare people. For most people death is the scariest thing in their life but I wonder if instead of death, will permanent isolation in jail make people suffer more. I don't really have much to say about penalty in California but I think they should abolish it. But is it only in California that the death penalty used?

It should be abolished everywhere. I can't believe it hasn't in a modern country such as the USA. It's the cause of much disgust here in Europe, and very much what causes people here to think of north americans as barbaric people.
I don't even see the point of it. Justice should never be in the hands of the wronged, because justice should be fair and impersonal. Killing won't bring back whoever's been killed; and besides, it's the ultimate hipocritical behaviour, punishing someone for doing something while doing the same thing to him
You would never educate a child like that; the criminals just won't learn that way. It's proved innefectual; actually, YSA has an over-the-top criminal rate compared to countries in Europe that DON'T have Death Penalty

never really had anything against the death sentence anywhere, one less warm body, innocent or not, taking over this world I really don't care

death penalty is an easy way out.
Find it preferably over life time sentences.

But i doubt criminals would think that way though.
And most criminals which got them a death sentence, probably, in my opinion, wont change. Better dead than living.

There's no need to respect a person's life if he doesnt respect the others.

No they should speed it up, BUT I think before the death sentence can be issued, there must be concrete evidence that they did it. There must be no shadow of a doubt that the suspect is guilty.
And if there is 100% positive that the suspect is guilty, they should be taken out and executed from the court room. No waiting on death row for 15 years.

People that take an innocent person's life are subhuman to me and are unfit to be treated as people. For murderers death is a luxury that if things were as they should be they would beg for me to just kill them.

So you would rather pay tax dollars to keep them alive until we kill them?

No I would use them to bring money in.
1. Slave labor.
2. Force the most dangerous ones to fight to the death. Of course sell tickets and TV rights.
3. Make a public spectacle of their execution. Everyone loves a good hanging.
4. If all else fails just grind em up and put em dog food. Of course alive and feet first, slowly lowered by a chain.

By the way these are some of the more merciful things i would suggest do to criminals.

Old school gladiators. Nice.
I wouldn't want my dog eating them, though.

He might get sick.

I would keep the death penalty for serial killers. People like that don't reform, though some pretend to. When they get out, they go back to killing again.

I don't care how they are executed as long as they are no longer a threat to society.

to me both choices are wrong
but if i really have to chose then i would say that DP should be gone.

*My opinion*
Those that say that DP should exist is no hair better then those that get the DP.

Sorry for the next line
XRW175P6MQ4 you are a sick guy.
with method 1 i could live with it but with 2 till 4 are just to cruel.
even though they are criminals, such thing should never be done.
here a good saying:
Never do something to another that you wouldnt do to yourself

is sad that pple who recieve death penalty kills, but i say, nobody has the right to take lives on their hands... only nature.

Buuuuuuuuuut, there's always a but, i dont mind to have a person who does not add nothing valuable, only disgraces, to this already peakin world, to die. this should be happening to all rapist, pedophiles and killers not matter if they have mental problems, or sexuals issues, they do not deserve to live.

Goverment wasting their money in rehab for this pple, your pple payin taxes to maintain this pple, for Goddess sake! give me a break, tree born doubled its trunk never straightens, and that's reality, so please, its cheaper them to be kill, not them to be maintain.

tha's my opinion
