I'm all for the death penalty. However, we keep getting the wrong people a lot of times. So, reluctantly, I cannot support it.
America's entire prison system is fucked. The percentage of Americans behind bars has skyrocketed since 1980. We throw people in jail more frequently and for much longer than other civilized countries. But politicians don't want to seem soft on crime so we'll lock your ass up over trivial shit for years and years. And then when you get out you won't be able to get a decent job ever again because you're an ex-con.
If you go to jail in the US you are fucked for life no matter how long you stay in.

Everything I needed to know about life I learned on Dagobah.
