ah, another fun topic
i see both sides...but, as i am sure some of you guessed, i am for the death penalty. yes, you will always grieve for the loss of the victim, but at the same time, you have the satisfaction that the person cannot do it to anyone else. you're saving someone else from the same kind of grief. and the idea that these people will really suffer in prison is, i think, kinda off. these ppl are put in locked facilities, yes, but they are also in
great facilities. i mean, tv, air conditioning...hey, that's better than a lot of ppl who haven't done anything wrong. ya know? i say, it's better to punish them here on earth so the family can experience some kind of closure to the event and to send 'em on to the Big Guy for Him to deal with in the most proper way. if they are innocent, then they're still in a better place than here...and if they are guilty, then they are where they should be in the first place. does that make sense?
