Death is not a punishment it's a liberation from what ever crime has been committed.

You would become a criminal IF the person turns out to be innocent, which is a reason I'm opposed to it, with the legal system being corrupted.
Sensible jurors are routinely weeded out by scum sucking lawyers and the jurors that are picked are dumbed down like sheep and either uninformed or misinformed concerning their rights.
I assure you that you can't have a death penalty under a system like this, and don't anyone accuse me of being a liberal.
If the system was not corrupt, there should be a death penalty, and my reason for not wanting it and liberals' reasons for not wanting it are DIFFERENT. The victim's life means something and this is a way of bringing about justice, when the system itself is just. The argument that it is "not a deterrent" is (1) an untrue liberal myth and (2) irrelevant.

I am 100% pro death penalty.I would not have the courage to give the lethal injection.I think there is a Hugh difference between killing
and murdering. To remove a bad seed makes the rest of the fruit fine.You can rape and murder a baby see a shrink get some Prozac and you out to do it again.If we put to death these inhuman animals there would be a whole lot less atrocities in the world.

Pro, The law provides for the death penalty, so no you do not become a criminal. As for personal belief, I feel that there is a difference in murder and killing. It's like war. Soldiers kill to stay alive.

No, biblically speaking. God set up his law (The Torah) to protect his people from the corruption of sin. As such, he demanded that people that commit certain offenses be removed from the community of believers by death. Carrying out this law, was to protect the community as a whole from the sins of that person. It also served to show that the wages of sin were death. Both literally and spiritually.
Since our laws were founded on biblical principals to begin with that would be the reasoning.

Pro
At some point we have to accept that there are people that cannot be rehabilitated. It's not reasonable for society to carry the weight of their incarceration after bearing the scars of their crimes. If it were legal to put prisoners to work to pay off their debts to society I'd be in favor of keeping prisoners in jail indefinately.

Against. We as mere humans do not have the right to decide about the life or death of another human.

Against. Killing a killer wont bring the dead person back, nor does it seem to be much of a deterant in the US.
