capitol punishement should be eliminated everywhere, not added as another form of punishment. it is inherently unfair, and will always cause the death of someone who didn't deserve it, just to satisfy some lawyer's ego at getting the death penalty for some offense regardless of whether the defendant actually committed the crime.
prosecutors don't always make sure they try the right one, just that someone be convicted. they are not interested in justice, but in winning a conviction even when the facts say otherwise. a good example is the duke university rape case in which the prosecutor violated so many rules, and ignored so much evidence proving the accused were not guilty, that he has been disbarred for his actions. he had decided they were guilty regardless of all the evidence to prove they were innocent and he still wanted to prosecute and convict them just because he wanted to do so, not to serve the cause of justice.
taking a life is a serious matter, and if even one is taken and shouldn't have been, then it is wrong to continue taking lives just because trhe law says you can.

What could it take to deliver decrease back capital punishment to Australia? Why, politicians and judges with an oz.. of effortless experience. Over here interior the united kingdom there is carnage on the streets because of the fact the knife and gun gangs roam unfastened. Time and time lower back convicted killers are released via stupid judges to kill lower back. To paraphrase Omar Khyam it somewhat is the actuality, the rest is lies, as quickly as hung the killing with the killer dies. and people who wail and beat their breasts have guards with weapons and armoured vests. yet i comprehend what you recommend concerning to the bleeding coronary heart liberals working each little thing...perhaps we'd desire to constantly dangle them first?

Yes.

The argument that "what if the dude was innocent" is a bogus one. This points out that judges should be more careful in determining whether or not there is reasonable doubt. In other words, only convict if it is ABSOLUTELY SURE. Even if it means 99% being declared innocent, this would be much better.

yes it should, but only in 'without any doubt whatsoever' circumstances.
and it should really only be people with murder charges, or most definately child molestation/murder.
in australia whilst we have a much lower crime rate than america, there is still a notion that our punishments arent that great. in australia, life in jail is 25 years. that is NOTHING. life should be life. an eye for an eye.

No.

It's been proven that it doesn't reduce crime in American states that use it. More effort should be put into rehabilitation, how can you teach people not to kill by killing? It's in the UN declaration of Human rights that everyone is entitled to life, and at the very bottom of my list of reasons is wrongful convictions.

Good luck

ONLY- if you're taking it FROM the U.S.. It's probably THE most barbaric form of "justice"- this side of torture. It's a DISGRACE to ANY Country that uses it.
