The DEATH Penalty
#33
The DEATH Penalty
SIMILAR THREAD - THREAD MERGED HERE


If you want to participate in this thread, it will be assumed that your opinion on capital punishment (the Death Penalty)
is contingent upon the scenario that a violent criminal brutally murdered your most beloved. Your wife,
your son, your daughter ... whomever you love the most was taken from you in a brutal cold-blooded manner.


My position:
I have always fully supported the death penalty, but not in its current form (at least not here in the USA). Due to the endless appeals process, and the myriad of expenses brought on by attorneys, judges, prison expenses and clerical hullabaloo, it costs the government far more to execute criminals than it does to keep them in prison. The day after they are found guilty by a jury of their peers, murderers and rapists should be blindfolded and executed by firing squad. Bullets are cheap.


For those in opposition:
Keep in mind that you can't have it both ways. You can't oppose the death penalty and make an exception for your loved one. That's just not reality. AND if you oppose the death penalty, but feel you should be allowed to pull a DEXTER by killing the criminal yourself, that makes you a hypocrite, because the real hidden truth is, you have no problem with causing the death of a living being.
