You can tell when someone's lost because they resort to correcting spelling mistakes. Never mind he's just utterly torn you apart, look, his English isn't 100% correct!

Well looks like I won.
Imagine getting beaten in an argument by someone who never participated in it. I suggest another career path!

You can't win an argument by arguing something that is factually incorrect.
I'm happy in the one I have thanks. I suggest you go and read s.1(1) of the theft act 1968 so you can learn what stealing is.

Boom! Pfizer will stop supplying drugs used for lethal injections, hopefully another nail in the coffin of capital punishment in the US. A lot of people may argue that states' responses will be to follow the likes of Utah and reintroduce previously used methods of execution. However, I would argue that the popularity of lethal injection was gained by its providing a facade of a less violent, 'medical' process. I think a lot of legislatures would be uncomfortable with the reintroduction of methods they've previously deemed too cruel; it would be easier for them to halt executions (possibly indefinitely, or at least until it is formally abolished).

That is an alternative but until you understand something don't argue about it

Why the death penalty should not be reintroduced:
- If the government kills someone for killing, people will begin to think that it is OK to kill people.
- People generally murder in anger so the thought of them dying would not stop them anymore than the thought of life imprisonment.
- It costs more money to execute someone than the cost of their life imprisonment (this is not my favourite argument lol)
- Executing is morally wrong because people should be entitled to their own world view and their life which no one else has the right to take away.
- Brain analysts will not be able to understand the human brain to see why murderers and rapists do what they do.- Social workers will not be able to see when children have brain issues that must be addressed to stop them from murdering/raping in the future.

Some people don't deserve to live. But I do not support the death penalty.
Yes, but only under four strict conditions:
1) It is 100% proven that person did the crime
2)The crime must involve severely hurting someone undeserving
3)If the person was released from prison, they would almost certaintly do the same thing again. They must have a life sentence with no chance of ever getting out in their lifetime
4)The cost of executing them would be significantly cheaper than keeping them in jail their whole life
Basically any serial killers, pedophiles, serial rapists etc. (or any other mental disorder which involves the repeated hurting of people) who definitely carried out the crime and whom we would be spending money on that could be used on other things.
Death penalty for things like theft or one off crimes, no I would not support it. Also, someone above said its more expensive to execute, in which case no one would fit these circumstances xD Even without that one, few people would meet them so I don't think it would make much difference anyway.

Well no one would be executed under that system because no one will ever be proven to be 100% guilty

Jeffrey Dahmer had severed heads in his home, as well as photos of dismembered bodies. He also had a range of other body parts. That's pretty hard evidence to me xD

That's evidence beyond a reasonable doubt but it doesn't mean you can be 100% sure he killed those people. He could have found their bodies, they could have been put there (I'm aware they weren't but it's something you'd have to consider if you wanted to prove guilt without doubt).

Yes! That is another point I forgot to make. If the person has already been executed, you cannot release them from prison if they have found to be not guilty because they are dead.
I also understand Laurenloops point that sometimes you have to take action but I think this would only work in a situation such as if there was a policeman and he had to kill a murderer at that moment or else he would murder more people. Also, it would only work if at that moment you couldn't put him/her in prison.

Number 3 will also basically never happen.

I think with DNA evidence it should be allowed for the rare cases where someone is never allowed out of prison.

because that has never gone wrong before...
Have you ever done practical experimental science? It doesn't always work... and that's ignoring corruption etc.
I don't support it on the grounds of you will never be able to eliminate miscarriages of justice. So even though I think a strong case can be made for killing certain people, I am not prepared to sacrifice innocents so there isn;t even any pojnt having the debate on whether or not it can ever be right for the state to murder someone.
