what do you think?

Question

if someone kills two people, do you think they should get the death penalty or rot in jail? i'm curious after watching an episode of hbos oz.

Answer 1

First, let me say, I work in a maximum security prison and I can have no opinion on this subject. I am not the judge or jury. I just kind of watch them and make sure the don't get out.
Second, I just wanted to say, Ashley, God will bless you for taking care of your little one like you do. I commend you for realizing that she needs you like you do. There are a lot of teens who have made the same choices you have made and decided not to "pay for" the wrong path they choose. Keep your chin up, it does get easier. Your baby girl wont be a baby for too long either. One day, you will also find someone to love and respect you both. In the meantime, hang in there. Me and Jesus love you!

Answer 2

They should have the same done to them. If we had stiffer penalties out there and not just 10 years in jail out in 5 for good behavior the bad guys would think twice before taking someones life if they knew when they took someone life they'd also be giving up there own.

Answer 3

Well, in Australia we have abolished the death penalty, and even then, some really petty convictions have been handed down for severe crimes.

I really can't shed my person view on it, as many circumstances come into play. And the death penalty is a pretty harsh punishment.

Answer 4

depends on the state, some don't have death penalties anymore.

Answer 5

i dont believe in the deat penalty, and i always have a fear that if they just sit in jail they will some day escape and do worse things.

Answer 6

I am not for the death penalty.
Put the person behind bars - would be a better punishment.

Answer 7

It depends on how heinous the murders were. Death usually is what they give people who mulitate their victim's bodies.

Answer 8

Guess so.
