If you support the death penalty, tell me why now please!!!!

[QUOTE="Trashface"][QUOTE="Marx_Brother"]

I don't support the death penalty mainly because it just doesn't work.

USA impose the death penalty... do they get low crime? I think not. It's idiotic to just kill people off, use your brain.

Suitable punishment yes, killing them off, no. I'm not some guy that is soft on law and order, completely the opposite, but there are better ways than just executing them... we have moved on from the Middle Ages.

It doesn't affect me here in England unless the BNP is miraculously voted in.

I don't know other ways of punishment, life in prison maybe, gulags.. take your pick. Also, who cares if it costs the tax payer, the government should not kill somebody otherwise there would be a giant circle of execution - governments set examples and give people other chances. However, with your logic, rapists should be raped in turn by state funded rapists.... :|

It costs $22,000, if I remember correctly, to house one inmate per year.

I'm talking about murderers and rapists, most states within the US have installed the death penalty for these crimes, but still they aren't exactly short on them, are they?

Whatever, I'm just saying the death penalty isn't a fantastic deterrent. The state shouldn't fund or endorse crap like that. Period.

What's your opinion on the death penalty. You argue but at the same time, never post your opinions.. it's like arguing with a news presenter.

With repsect, your talking out of your ass. Death penalty doesn't make streets any safer than prison, Europe is a safer place than America and all countries within the EU do not impose the death penalty. Maybe it is about the causes of crime and not just killing them off... it's pathetic and mindless.

The punishment should fit the crime. 

There's nothing worse than a murderer spending some odd years in prison only to be released and free to live their life.  Or to spend the rest of their life in prison playing basketball and games everyday and laughing it up with their buddies and having a seemingly jolly time.  And their victim can't do a damn thing.

Timothy McVeigh killed 168 people (19 of which were children) in the Oklahoma City bombing and was executed for it on June 11, 2001. I would like to know how anyone doesn't think he deserved to get executed.snrsmith23

I would rather see killers like that spend their entire life in prison or hard labor because that is a lot worse than getting the death sentence.

Some people are monsters and don't deserve to live and have food and shelter on our money.  The death penalty should be called for the most horrible crimes only, but they should speed up the process,  because we waste so much of our tax money to keep these fiends alive.  Some people will call me barbaric, but it would cost less than $30 to put a bullet in their head and incinerate the body.  A lot better than wasting thousands on lethal injection if you ask me.

It is an efficient way of getting rid of the scum that live on this earth. And it saves us money if we kill a criminal, rather than keep him alive and pay for his food and what not. daniel52587

... It costs you a lot of money to have them executed as well... either way it costs money. Plus, it's not about the money in your pocket, idiot, it's about the criminal.

[QUOTE="romocop33"]in california, which has the largest death row population, the death penalty costs taxpayers $114 million per year past what it costs to keep killers in prison for life without parole.PercivalCox

[QUOTE="PercivalCox"][QUOTE="romocop33"] as far as prison overcrowding, why don't we let the 500,000+ people in for drug offenses out and worry about the real criminals.romocop33

No, it's wrong for anybody to take the life of another.yoshi-lnex

so we should probably kill all the invalids too then? people in a vegetative state that cannot move or talk or do anything don't really have a value to society. romocop33

....

If there's a prospect for recovery then of course they should be kept alive. If there's no hope then it's a healthy move for the family to just let go. Comatose patients who can potentially recover and live a happy life =/= crazed maniac who slaughters and rapes people.
