Should The Death Penalty Be Allowed?

How can you be indifferent towards such a major issue? You must have a leaning towards one side or the other.

It would not be the state that kills the individual, they would only create the legislation. It would be a court of law and a jury which would have the final say.

I'm all ears for these other methods.




What's the issue?

I just don't believe rapists or pedophiles have a right to live. I take it you do, and you're fine with taxpayers' money going to keep these immoral degenerates alive?

Had no idea people thought discussing the death penalty was about money and not peoples lives but ok

The only issue I have is I'm sure undeserving people have been executed

I feel only proven serial killers and terrorists should get it, or a murderer showing no remorse

As far as rape, kidnap, torture, homicide, attempted murder, etc give them life and no chance of getting out
Everyone else gets due time



"Victims?"

Some people would consider them victims since the death penalty is death. They weren't victims to me.

Yes. In a just society the death penalty is absolutely necessary.

I firmly believe that murderers, rapists and child molesters should be hung by the neck until dead.

I agree. I never really understood why some serial killers get to sit real tight in prison provided with free meals , healthcare, and beds for years after looking into their victims faces and brutally murdering them. Yet when you bring up the death penalty, some people will claim that is too harsh.

lol k, so you're an animal rights nutjob but don't believe that people who have done something wrong should be permitted to change?

Sure go for it line up all of the scumbags serving life and drop them all one by one it'll save the government a fair bit of cash. I only agree to this extent with cases where there is total proof, obviously we can't murder people just because they look a bit shifty.

I personally believe it's wrong - wouldn't killing someone as a punishment for killing someone else make us just as bad as they are???

I think they should be left in prison for the rest of their lives and made to feel the guilt and anguish that they have caused.

but that's just me

No it was definitely you that said taking things from a thief is stealing

I do think people should be punished for killing another person but not necessarily by the death penalty. I know there's no excuse for murder however sometimes certain circumstances need to be factored in - murder cases aren't simple.

I do think the death penalty should exist for certain circumstances however e.g. serial killers, terrorists - particularly those who show no remorse whatsoever for the killings of innocent people including children.

I agree. But that costs money. I would make them pay for it, too.

What's your verdict? Is it right to kill someone for killing somebody?
