Also to my points.
1) I've been in prison visiting someone often. They are overcrowded. I've heard the first hand stories of how crowded. Yes revamping who goes to prison will fix it but killing the murderers will put a dent in it.
2) Burden on society wasn't about money it was everything in general. Maintaining and caring for the life of someone that has killed in cold blood isn't worth it. Money spent on killing them is. Although I'm not against a single gunshot to the head but hey I'm old fashioned.
3) We can argue this point all day long but it is still punishment. Do something wrong you get punished. Kill someone your punishment is death. You are more arguing about how effective of a punishment it is not whether it IS punishment. If they have the thought "I don't want to die" it is punishment.
4) I could go on and on about this but an eye for an eye. You kill you get killed. I don't care if it hurts another family because you did that to them by killing someone, it's your own fault not the governments. You caused one family to hurt and mourn the loss of a loved one you caused your own family to do the same. I don't see how any of this is laid at the government's feet.
Mind you I am talking about real criminals that made a decision to kill. Kids in gangs killing for the gangs, drunk people, accidental deaths, deaths for inheritance, any death that can't be proven... none of those are worthy of the death penalty. THAT is what needs to be fixed. Who we find 'worthy'. Even DNA isn't acceptable proof because families can be similar and people have multiple sets of DNA in rare cases.
