RE: do you think we should have the death penilty
(I didn't read the whole thread...)
my opinion:
no, no death penilty. I rather pay taxes to "punish" a person (aka put em life long in jail) then sentencing him/her to death. Not only the "innocent" issue comes to mind, but also the fact that death is often seen as a way out by criminals and by the relatives of the victims. Criminals don't have to live with their deeds any longer if they are sentenced to dead, the relatives of the victims always do...
True, some death row criminals rather keep living, but the true criminal minded ones don't care and rather die.
If someone killed a close one to me, I rather see him/her a life long in prison then seeing him on death row...
(and if politics come to mind: so it is ok to kill a murderer, but not to do an abortion?... but that's an whole other discussion... although, it is very similar)
