... you all know what death penalty is (hohoho!), but do you also know what your opinion to death penalty is?
Well, if u dont know, leave, think and come back if you have your own opinion, dont dare just to copie others opinions.
Oh well, my opinion comes first obviously, but first of all i want to kill a wrong reasoning in many of your heads:
Prisoners need something to eat and drink, of course, and all of you think now 'why not just killing this guy, he maybe killed someone and now he eats our food and drinks our water!' Well guys, prisoners work, so they dont cost us somethin, they kinda help uz, one them helps generally more than one of you, kk? Dont let me hear kill that guy, the money he'd cost could be mine!
Oh well my opinion... kill that prisoners. What said Ghandi? Eye for eye and the world is blind. Lol funny! I mean, how dare he to tell such a nonsense? Doesnt matter. Why not a beautiful list for my clever arguments?
> Who wanted to get killed? Yes, exactly, no one =>
The murderer hurts also the friends, the family of the victim. And whooops, a friend or a relative takes revenge! Lolol, we have another young murderer, oh dear... Why not just go let the magistrate decide what happens? Ouch! Big story. Also the murderer dies, and really no one wanted to get killed.
Well well, the murderer should get killed officially by a deathsman or even one relative or friend of the victim if he wants, then everyone had his revenge and hey, who wants to take revenge then? All not (enough) reasoned acts of revenge means for the man who has taken revenge the death, punto. And the next day pasts away as if nothing had happen...
Oh and yes, sry for my english dudes :P I hold my opinion basically, i will define it clearlier after some opinions with celver arguments will appear (and contra-arguments for the my basically hold opinion, lets see if you think something is already at beginnin stupid :P)
Death penalty isn't used enough, if used more often in murder cases it would deter people from doing the crime in the first place, knowing the consequence would most likely be death, not just a prison sentence, usually with chance of parole. Only with sufficient evidence though, to avoid 'innocent' deaths.
Unless someone has an obsession with destroying other people's eyesight- then it's probably better for the rest of us if that guy goes blind.
If someone is a danger to the public, stop them in the most effective way possible. If you can, be merciful, but it's more important that you stop them.
why not use them to colonize the moon, or mars, send there dead bodies over, maybe some lye, make them into fertilizer. anyone ever seen soilent green, or read the book? but as it stands, i believe the death penalty is not harsh enough, bring back hangings, crucification, beheadings, oooooohhh the locked in a coffin with carnivorous bugs (my favvy). some criminals see prison, and the death penalty, as an easy and mildly comfortable way to shirk their responsibilities to the economy, and in some cases put an end to a mentally painful and impoverished lifestyle.
oh yah, and that whole eye for an eye bit is kinda lame, if you thin kabout it, youd be the one blind, the person who did it to you would walk away scot free.
I think that no matter what the man/woman did, he/she should get life in prison or whatever he/she was sentenced to, but if he/she does something like escapes, kills inmate, etc, he/she should get the death sentence.
