Death Penalty

If you don't kill them there is only one more thing: you keep them alive

ouch

For it:

A)People who kill deserve to be killed.
B)The world is too crowded anyways.

😈 agree

A)So the ones who kill the convicts should also be killed, is that what you mean?

B)the population in the world will stabilize on
8 to 10 000 000 000 citizens.

people who killed deserve justice, they have to think about what they've done, we all don't want to become killers huh? Well, then start with stopping the death penalty! It's the same thing!

What was that line again: "We kill to show that killing is wrong"?

Yes, I'm sure that was it... 🙄

what are you talking about?

About the oddity of a death penalty.

ok, sorry, missed the point there

'A killer of that scale is in no way going to benefit society.
By his deeds, he has proven he has no regard for the life of another.
He must be dealt with in such a way that will inhibit him from inflicting ANY
damage on anyone else. He knew what he was doing was deeply evil and
wrong, and he still did it.'

This was a quote form my local Newspaper, In our country we dont believe in the death penalty, but i know in other countries they do.

So i will ask these questions

1. What is the advantage to society gained by putting such evil people to death?

2.How is is better then a "Natural Life" verdict without the possibility of parole that would ensure the criminal died in prison?

3.Is the "benefit to society of putting the worst human animals to death worth the risk of potentially putting the innocent to death?

Ok you guys probably want to know what i think,well i don't see how anyone could think that this is anything but an emotional argument for those who support it.I would really like to hope that our society is beyond eye-for-an-eye mentality which only breeds more hatred 🙁 .

I feel as a race we have not reached that point where we have learned to forgive, i mean we have so many great role models such as Jesus,Buddha,Gandhi but we just tend to ignore all that.

Sometimes i think we have come so far in our progress in technology and medical cures but we have not overcome our basic need for revenge when someone wrongs against us 🙁

I'm for the Death Penalty. But I think it has some problems.

First- too expensive. All these appeals, and a last meal end up costing way to much money. Plus the chemicals used to put the guy "peacfully" to sleep forever. I think if found guilty, he should be shot in the head or stabbed to death, preferably stabbed because it would be cheaper to simply use the same knife over and over. I also think the death penalty should be expanded from just Murderers to Rapists as well, neither of these people have any reason for living.

Second - Yeah, it sucks that innocent people get put to death, but you can't blame the death penalty for that, thats the fault of our crappy judicial system.

If we could fix those two problems, then everyone would love the death penalty.

yeah but why should we kill them i mean isn't it better to see him live and then atone for his crimes

Nah, I'd rather kill him and be sure he would never hurt another person again, rather then leave him alive in jail, where he could possibly escape and kill/rape/hurt again.

Wasnt a thread like this that got closed 😑

The Omega and myself against the world! 😄

Im against the death penalty. Through and through.

phew!! i am glad some agrees with me 🙂

I think you'll find quite a few people will agree. ✅

burn the witches, hang the buzzers, shock the killers, poison the bad, and let the misderminor's walk...

I'm also against the death penalty. is barbaric and is against my religion and faith.

indeed but why do a civilized society like US have the death penalty in the first place
