Answer 1

1) yes
2) yes
3) i trust the process. no one is found innocent and executed.
4) Babies don't get trials -

If you ever studied logic, you should quickly see the fallacy of this argument. What does an unborn baby in the womb have in common with a murderer or a robber, a rapist or a child molester, a kidnapper or a terrorist? The answer is absolutely nothing!

That child didn’t ask to be conceived and that child didn’t ask to be aborted. That child wants to live. But the person on Death Row knew the difference between right and wrong, and yet chose to commit the crime that put him there.

Answer 2

There is always that possibility that an innocent person may be executed and that is a tragedy whenever that may occur. However, that is the same logic used in support of abortion on demand by keep bringing up the posible death of the mother if she were to bring it to full term.

One thing that can not be argued is that every child that is aborted for whatever reason is the innocent victim of abortion. You cannot say that with capital punishment, most are guilty of henious crimes and that is justice, not murder.

I never could understand what is so difficult for the pro-abortion anti-capital punishment proponents to be so confused with the difference between the guilty and the innocent.

Answer 3

The death penalty is a calculated action taken by the government acting on behalf of people. It is a response to a specific decision on the part of the person being executed. Yes, in a few rare situations people have been exonerated after execution and this is very sad. This is the reason for the very extensive appeals process in place in most states for those on death row.

However, if you agrea a fetus is a human life then there is no reasonable comparison to abortion.

Abortion is signal persons decision to choose their personal convenience and comfort over the life of another human. Even though that human has done nothing wrong.

Answer 4

Abortion is not killing innocent people and should not be compared to capital punishment. Capital punishment is not the problem, the court system is. The rich get off while the poor get blamed. If we investigate all the cases as we do those of the rich then the right people would be put to death for the right crimes.

Answer 5

luckily now with DNA testing it is harder to convict an innocent man. but it does unfortunately happen. i dont agree with the death penalty because i think it is the easy way out. make them live in a tiny cell with no contact with humans for the rest of their lives. i dont think someone who could take a persons life is that afraid of death.

EDIT:

okay the innocent man thing. my gramma is writing a book about a member of the black panther organization from a while back. he is on death row for a murder he didn't commit. he has been sitting in jail for i think over 20 years now. no one is doing anything to help him. he will eventually be put to death and he is innocent.

i am sure there are many cases of innocent men being put to death. and it sucks. this is why the death penalty is wrong

Answer 6

Yes
Yes
I don't

There are cases on file of innocent people being put to death, which is why the US Sumpreme Court abolished it for a while.

I don't like paying $50,000 a year to keep some killer alive in a prison, with cable TV, cell phones, 3 meals a day, access to computers.

The guilty should have to pay. Prisons should be self-supporiting and if prisoners are found innocent they should be given a grant equal to their pay.

Instead of outsourcing to India, we should outsouce to prisons!

Everyone faces this issue.

Your 8 year old daughter is playing outside in the front yard. A man comes by, grabs her by force, no one sees it. He takes her away, strips her naked, has sex with her then kills her and dumps her body in the woods.

Kill him or keep him alive?

Keep him alive your tax dollars pay $20 to 100,000 per year for him to have cable TV, movies once a week, food, free weights, natuluas devices, a music room, access to computers and the internet.

He might get out in 7 - 15 years.

You cool with that!

Answer 7

1a) this is a stupid question, you comprehend there are human beings accessible who believe this 1b) no, i'm adversarial to abortion , yet no longer as a results of the undeniable fact that is killing harmless "human beings" (except of direction we can agree on the definition of folk) 2a) yet another stupid question, you comprehend that there are human beings accessible that are for capital punishment therefore 2b) no, back, i imagine capital punishment has its position, yet my reason behind helping capital punishment isn't properly expressed through "because it rids the international of murderes" 3) even with the very undeniable actuality that I reported no to both 1b and 2b, i imagine my position will be resembling what you've been soliciting for, i became basically uncomfortable along with your wording, so i visit furnish slightly more desirable element abortion is destruction of a residing aspect, oftentimes for selfish causes, and without due approach of regulation it would want to be resembling capital punishment if capital punishment were meted out to the harmless on the whim of a unmarried human being capital punishment is the states felony reaction after someone is convicted of a particular form of crime that isn't any diverse than jailing someone for his or her crime, or whipping them, or fining them or regardless of i visit no longer regularly await section 2

Answer 8

It is a shame when a error is made, if the error was made on purpose the perpetrator be it prosecutor or judge, are guilty them selves of murder.

It is the sin of the government for executing an innocent. That is why here it takes so long to put one to death.

And still I support it!

Answer 9

1)I am sure that there have been.
2)yes but God is in control, and controls all judgement. So whomever is really guilty will never be free from punishment.
3) the majority are not innocent, and we need to trust God with our lives.
