Well, we could put them all on an island in the middle of the pacific. That way, we don't have to kill them, they can kill themselves. Oh, they could try and make it a happy settlement, but their minds don't work that way, they have to have violence to live.

Well, we would probably have to have more than one island. Oh, and I'm being serious, that could be a solution....

Against. I like the re-education style of the Chinese prisons. Now don't go nuts on me for that, maybe you should educate yourself first. Read "Prisoners of Liberation," it is a book about 2 english teachers in China during the revolution. How they ended up spying for the American government and subsequently ended up in one of these prisons.

No one deserves a death penalty for anything except murder, anything else doesnt deserve it

death penalty all the way. It teaches people to dont do the thing that the dead guy did

They should go back to using firing squads. that would be more fun.

and firing squad is even better


I think that's a bit extreme. Lethal injection works fine. It's more of a punishment anyway, since in the firing squad you're dead right away. As far as I know, the lethal injection isn't quite instant acting, so they still have a few seconds of dread to feel bad for what they did.

THey will be watched by the police.


24/7? That's very impractical, and would cost more money than just keeping them in jail.

Well, we could put them all on an island in the middle of the pacific. That way, we don't have to kill them, they can kill themselves.


They'd kill each other, not just themselves <.< Also probably try to kill the guys who bring more prisoners. I think that would turn out a huge mess.

^ Well, what If you are for death, and it was your best friend that committed the murder, would you want them to be put to death?

Well, in my opinion, these kind of questions are unfair, family and friends are always a variable that change things.
