i dont have a moral problem with killing a cold blooded murderer.
but the problem is the court system is such joke and the process of execution so ridiculous that the death penalty should probably be done away with. the fact is innocent people are being executed. i dont have enough faith that the problem can be corrected.
That's part of the reason I am against it. I mean killing someone for a crime is one thing, but on top of that you leave that decision up to 12 morons stuck on a jury? That doesn't really seem like that great an idea to me.
Plus with the death penalty a murderer dies in prison, with life in prison a murderer dies in prison and on top of that spends the rest of his life time being punished as well. Can anyone explain how the first option is the worse form of punishment?
i'd take death over life in prison. but i know some idiots wear it like a badge of honor and adapt pretty well to it.
