Death penalty, agree/disagree ? why ?

Answer 1

Personally I am 100% against the death penalty.

Yes you can argue some people deserve it, etc, etc but the fact a chance exists that the wrong person could be put to death (ie they were wrongfully convicted for whatever reason... it does happen) makes it not worth doing at all.

There are many cases of people being taken off death row in the US due to new evidence, etc. In other parts of the world the death penalty seems almost arbitrary and more politically motivated.

We live in the 21st century people.

Answer 2

Not under any religious rules and laws. Totally constitutional one can be applied in certain desrving cases. I feel, some times judges make a great error with a death sentence - they should punish the criminal with maximum humiliating/torturing confinement. eg. sentence - 45 years imprsonmment - first 5 years he will stay in a very dark cell - With in five years the criminal starts repent his act and will prreach others from the cell not to commit such a ruthless crime.

My request to Human rights movements: Not to look at these criminals and give your hand for a help. They will catch hold of your hands come out of the prison and you will be held responsible by the civilized world.

Answer 3

I fully agree with it!
why should my hard earned tax money go to someone who killed another person when it could be goin to something worth it. Like helping to find a cure for leukemia (spelling sorry) No instead it's so these criminals can get a nice meal everyday and a bed and all that good stuff! Hell they even have t.v.'s If ur in prison for life you should have nothing because the people that were killed haven't anything and their families have heartache!
so yeah i am all for it and then my tax money would go for something useful not these pieces of sh!t
I think it would have to absolute solid evidence against a person first!

Answer 4

As a former student of the philosophy of law and as a consequentialist, I'm against it. The sole reason being the amount of money it takes to accomplish is far greater than the amount spent toward a life time of incarceration.

Answer 5

I was in agrrement for a long time but I changed my mind earlier this year. There is a strong, and good argument on both sides.
I think the power over life and death is in God's hands alone. Who knows what will happen during their life in prison, and how God wants to work before we end it and do not allow what he wants to do.
It is not unlike Teri Schiavo (or abortion) - the power over life and death. I believe it is not up to us.

Answer 6

Disagree, I see no earnings to housing and holding criminals indefinitely. Execute murderers, rapists, pedophiles and the different violent criminals. we would additionally could revamp the appeal device so human beings do no longer spend 40 years on dying row. I advise a optimal of two appeals interior of 5 years of conviction.

Answer 7

I agree with it. Sentencing a murderer to a lifetime of free clothes, free food, free laundry service, free cable, free Internet, free gym, free medical/dental care, and all the other freebies they get is not punishing them. Neither is spending their lives playing football or basketball when they go outside, lounging around watching TV, or any of the other things they do while in prison.

Answer 8

Death is not a punnishment. Life without the possability of parole is a punnishment. Two wrongs never make a right.

Answer 9

i agree cus if u take the lives of 48 people and u serve a life in jail its not fair to the 48 people that died at the hands of one person, yeah its a harder life for the person if he/she serves a life in jail but they get to talk eat and still live while the others either go to heaven or down there and can't really do want they wanted to do in life of if they go down there then they didn't have much of a chance to know Christ

Answer 10

Disagree because it has been used in a genocidal manner against blacks who reap unfortunate circumstance from a Zionista/Racist white controlled IN-JUSTICE system....
