---o--- my DCs say I'm dreamy.
Murdering murderers does seem counter-intuitive but on the other hand if someone takes a life, they obviously dont respect life so why should their right to live be respected? I don't necessarily support the death penalty but I also don't really like murderers so |
|
death is very interesting , also we dont know what will happen when we die.. |
|
The death penalty shouldn't exist, those people can be put to better use. |
|
we dont deceide on the question of someone else's life , we just discuss what we think about it =) |
|
I think the world is a better place without certain people in it. I'm not particularly opposed to killing such people. |

I don't really like incarceration either; locking people in cages. |

I know that this is a little off-topic, because this thread is about the MORAL implications, but I found this to be interesting, if it is accurate: |

Things are not as they seem
See... this is so hard to answer... I seem to agree with getting 'revenge' with the murderer. kill my mother i'll kill you sorta thing.... |

I don't believe in the death penalty. No one has the right to take a life, no matter what they did. But I think SOME kind of beneficial rehabilitation is in order. If you don't want those kind of people in our society, send them to another country..a third world country. |

I have no idea whatsoever why this is so hard to answer. What are the arguments for it? |

I'm against the death penalty because it is extremely expensive (so I hear) and because there's always the possibility that they got the wrong guy. |

Surrender your flesh. We demand it.
I support the Death Penalty. Criminals, specially the serial killers and such, should get what's coming for them. Though, I would put in some sort of system to there would be a 5-10 year period before it actually happens, just to be sure they have the right guy. Also, perhaps exceptions for the ones who aren't in the right state of mind. |
|
I'm definitively against it. There are many practical reasons why (Could have gotten the wrong guy, it's expensive, studies show prejudice is an important factor in whether or not you'll be sentenced to it, etc), but most importantly I just don't see how a self-respecting country can figure it's all right to kill people. |

April Ryan is my friend,
Every sorrow she can mend.
When i visit her dark realm,
Does it simply overwhelm.
In a perfect world where it could be absolutely undoubtedly certain that nobody ever got falsely accused, that no person ever was punished because he / she was innocent, I would be for it for some extreme crimes such as intentional murders, months long abuse towards someone, etc. However, that perfect world does not exist, and therefore I'm against it. |
|
Even if you could be certain; are you really saying you'd kill this guy? |
|
But who's going to kill the executor? |

I'd say in a metaphorical sense it's totally pertinent. |
