Jeremy Clarkson is like a modern philosopher of our times.
Overall, I agree with Kyu. I'm not against the death penalty for moral reasons, but a very good argument can be made against it from other angles. I think the jury system is the best system we have, and the fact that everyone must agree before a verdict is met is a good idea. I think perhaps a little more regulation is needed though, perhaps having a recording or a review session of the jury whilst it is working out a verdict. I'm not entirely sure how it all works at the moment though.
