Is the death penalty neccessary?

Death penalty for Islamophobia and Xenophobia should exist.

I mean it’s a pretty good deterrent. But then again if someone is mentally unstable and kills some one but ultimately wants to end their life then maybe not so effective

Don't be ridiculous. You're about as smart as you look!

Death penalty for racism!

When a suspect kidnaps a random member of society and locks them away in their house for many years, what is our response? We pick that suspect up off the street and we put them in a cell for many years. The difference is the lawfulness of the act: it is lawful when the suspect is imprisoned but not lawful when the suspect imprisoned their victim. The same logic holds for the death penalty.

No where in that statement did I say you were foreign. By the sounds of it, I think you are unaware of how much money it costs to house each prisoner which is approximately £65,000 to imprison somebody in the UK and a further £40,000 each year they spend incarcerated. If somebody has been convicted of a brutal serial murders, they should be killed.

Every heard the saying "eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth"?

Hey hey now! This is mean.

I agree, depending on the crime committed in relation to racism

I think believing you are superior to another person and discriminating them based on their race is a crime punishable by death.

We all bleed the same color and no one should feel so isolated that they can't go to certain areas due to ethnicity.

I agree with the death penalty and I think it should be around in the UK as there are some criminals who get less than a year punishment for serious crimes. But is it effective in the USA?

Exactly, but you cant necessarily sentence someone to death just because they have discriminated against you once - but if it is reoccurring and abusive then yes i totally agree

Ever heard of an eye for an eye makes the whole world go blind ?

What about the people who were brought up in a time when racism was okay? I'm not excusing racism but I'm point out that racism in people in a product of what other people have been indoctrinated into again rehabilitation I vaguely remember the EDL guy who left the EDL after having an actual conversation with a muslim. Why do we need to exact retribution on people when we can educate them? And if they don't commit a crime and just are racist i.e don't act on their racist thoughts what are you going to charge them with being mentally racist? that's not a far cry from a thought police

i think it should be the case. maybe we should have to ask their grieving families and see what they say. but ultimately if someone has killed someone who is close to you then you will want revenge for them. however if their is a reason, then it should be dealt with the justcice system. however prison time must be served regardless.

Nah. No one should have the right to take away anyone else’s life.

Plus, it’s an easy way out. I’d rather a murderer/pedo had to live a long and horrible life with what they did. Death is revenge, not punishment.

There will also always be cases or wrongful convictions, you can’t un-kill someone when new evidence comes to light years later.
