What should we do with the people on death row?

Question

We have a lot of people that are not only on death row but have been for a long time. What should we do?

Answer 1

Kill them all within one year.

The problem with the death penalty is that the appeals process takes decades. Time goes by, people forget about how horrified they were when they initially heard about the monster's crime, and the monster has a chance to gain sympathy.

Give these animals one year to come up with NEW evidence, not technicalities from the trial, but new evidence. If nothing comes up, you die one year to the day from your sentencing. If valid new evidence comes up, you get an appeal in front of a judge - not a jury of idiots.

Answer 2

I think of that every now and then and this may sound wired. I really don't want to offend anyone, it's just a thought I have had. I really don't know any thing about a persons Brain, how ever I have heard Science has proved that a criminals Brain is different from a normal persons Brain.
If a person was guilty via DNA evidence, absolutely the guilty party and they were willing to particapate. I have wondered if there is some kind of Brain surgery that could be done that would make them incapable of committing a bad crime and they could be released.
This is not something that I would be for if it made them a complete vegetable as then they might as well be put to death.

Answer 3

Do you work for the government? I mean can you pull any strings or do you know someone high up? Because if you don't, let it go! I personally don't care what they do with the people on death row. It's not my concern! 1st of all I don't believe in the death penalty. Therefore, I really put the entire situation into God's hands and let Him handle it! That's what's wrong with mankind now! That's why this world is so f*cked up! Because mankind thinks that they are God! Sit back! Re-lax! Go eat a sandwich or watch a comedy and breathe! That's why half of this globe is dying from stress related issues! Let it go!

Answer 4

send them to countries that owe the U. S. tons of $$ .... in exchange we cancel out a certain amount of the debt they owe us ...... taking one lifer off our hands cancels $100,000 in debt

then that country could do whatever they wanted with prisoners ...... put them in jail, carry out death sentence, force them into slave labor, etc. ...... even set them free if they don't want to be burdened with cost of keeping them in jail (but if any prisoners escape & are discovered back in U.S. ....... immediate death penalty)

I think this could act as a major deterrent if convicts thought they might get sent to some country that would actually kill them or make them slaves. And it would obviously reduce our costs of housing the losers. Those countries won't ever pay us a dime on debt they owe anyway, so I don't really see a downside to attempting this policy.

Answer 5

Leave them there and keep shoving food under the door. Let them spend the rest of their natural lives in reflection on their own evils.

Answer 6

There are no millionaires on death row, so there is your answer.

Answer 7

I think they should have one appeal and then take them out back and shoot them in the head. One bullet and that's it. Maximum of one year in jail and execution cost of less than $20.

Answer 8

Bring back the firing squad and shoot them all. Much less expensive than the lethal injection and much more humane, if you ask me. Just get good marksmen.

Answer 9

I would say if they deserve it kill them, but then you have to think that many of the people on it have been proven innocent. I say they deserve to have thir case investigated throughly before the "SYSTEM" ***** up again.

Answer 10

Process them!
I'm tired paying taxes for them.
