Should It Be Legal: P4 - Death Penalty

Yes

36

No

18

Yes, including public executions (IE hangings)

Is the death penalty right or wrong? When someone commits serious crimes, is it right to choose to make more life loss? Is getting the death penalty the easy way out? What do you think? The death penalty is banned in many states and countries because they do not believe that the way to solve conflict is to shed more blood. They also thinks it's savage. But the death penalty is legal in places too. This is because they believe that the only way to make the world a better place is to get rid of those who make it worse. Sometimes, even public death is legal to justice in it's purest form, an eye for an eye. What do you think? Should your state/country endorse the death penalty? Why or why not? I say legal, including public.

    Yes. However I feel as though the modern method of execution is simply overly expensive, when more barbaric methods are practically cost free. I shouldn't have to explain what I mean by barbaric. We spend more money on lethal injection than making them waste away in a cell, providing them with adequate nutrition everyday, and allotting various amounts of "free time" for life. The law prohibits cruel and unusual punishment, but in what manner, in the eyes of the law, is ending their life not cruel? Why should their life cost more than a complete college education, just because they have to be comfortable when they die? I find it absolutely invigorating that it costs so much money to do what can be done with the pull of a trigger or the swing of a blade.
