I hope they do. All of this PC bullstuff is giving most hardened criminals a better life than most low income families can manage, and you wonder why most crime is commited by those same low income people.

  Well stuff too late to change my vote, I believe certain people need to die, but those people are dead now anyway, mainly horrible leaders that slaughtered millions and would probably rise back to power because of the forgeted up supporters.  It is more expensive to kill criminals than it is to keep them on a life's sentence, and like others have mentioned there's no going back if you truly were innocent.

Cesare Beccaria summed up everything what was wrong with the "dark age" practices of criminal law and proposed new ways, thus laying the foundation of modern criminal law. You might as well read his pamphlet, it's not that long.

Modern lethal injection has evidence showing it can cause extreme pain and suffering before it kills.

There is no "humane" way to kill anything, no matter how people try to justify it.

I just said it was less humane than people think.

Kill some one that killed someone else.
That would make you a killer.

Lol.

Lol.

Capital punishment is funded by every taxpayer. Therefore it makes every taxpayer a killer.

[Leafsoo7]

i think death penalty should be if you killed 3 or more people, not just for some one who killed one person

I'm not disagreeing with you here, I'm adding to your fact.

That Lethal injection treatment isn't going to scare would-be criminals from commiting crimes in the first place. I say bring back the Brazen bull.

I say if it is death penalty, send them into war with no training :o. Then, they can't get back and might commit crimes in an enemy country, lol.

This is the main reason why death penalty is wrong. It overlooks the fact that during a trial, the fate of a human being is at stake. Even if one committed the most felonious deed, they were still human beings while doing so.

We aren't exactly given a choice in the matter since the IRS will rape you if you don't pay up.
