A Single act of murder, No.

Purely because sometimes you don't really mean to kill someone, But still get convicted of Murder.

However, If they kill multiple times, Then yes.

Oh, no, I accidently voted yes, but I meant no...

Whoops.

In my opinion, punishing a crime with death makes you as bad, if not worse, morally than the murderer/criminal.

So, Saddam Hussein shouldn't be killed, becuase killing him would be as bad as him killing 10 thousand of his own subjects?

What good is killing him going to do? Answer me that.

Besides, Sadam is a very extreme case; we're talking about rape/murder and things of that nature here.

Personally I'm against it, for the same reasons I've stated in the other topics.

"Kill a killer and you're scum like him."

That's my motto. :)

I've yet to actually see the Death Penalty do any good towards society.  Has it stopped killing?  No.  Does it scare people from killing?  No.  Does it justify the original murder?  No.  Does it bring back the deceased?  No.  Does it make the family/ies feel any better?  No.  Does it stop all the heart ache, pain and suffering caused by the killer?  No.

So I have to ask what good it does do?  None from what I see.  Big deal, so you bump off a murderer who would have spent life in jail anyway, suffering and being miserable and instead granted him a quick and easy way out.

If I commited a murder and was sentenced to death, I'd probably laugh before I was executed because I'd die with the satisfaction that I'd brought great missery and pain and didn't even suffer for it while the victim's family has to suffer for the rest of their lives.  Win for me! :/

Hardly seems like an ideal solution does it?  Murder, murder, murder, quick escape.  Murderer 1, everyone else 0 >_<

I'm quite glad we scrapped the death penalty over here, it's inhumane and barbaric.  How can anyone say with pride "my country kills people in the name of justice :w00t:"?


Still stand by it.

I don't support it, even though many families of the victims are supporting it, usually blinded by the fact that they hate this person deeply. :r
I feel that killing a killer is wrong, since killing him is as bad as commiting the very crime he commited. :ermm:
So, no. >_< Life in prison is the same thing as the death pentalty, without the injection, and takes several years longer. (Due to the fact that all humans die, of course. :P)

:ermm:
