what do u guys think about the death penilty(electric chair, poisen gas room, ext..)
like when u do something bad, as in killing someone else or doing something really bad
well heres what i say: An Eye For An Eye
if they killed someone or a lot of people, they shout be put to death, feel the pain that he/she put on the other people
Yea, but one thing i dont like about death penalty is, what if an innocent person was accused and put to death?? Wouldn't that suck... ass? That would be more like murdering of innocent civilians. That's the only drawback that i can see to it.
Today's death penalties are ALOT better than before i think... back then they'd use to hang people, drown them, chop their heads off, burn them on a steak.... *shudders* just the thought of those things make me tingle
I am personally glad that Canada does not has the death penalty.
In my opinion, death penalty is worse then prison for life. For one, you know that you are going to die, and not be locked up. Second, its almost painless (if its injection). Except if that guy's christian, then he might go to hell.
personally i think if sum1 is sentenced to death, that is better than living life in prison. but here's my idea, tell ppl they r going to the chair so they r tortured about their crime in the fact that they know they will be killed, but dont put them to death, instead put that person in soletary confinement for the rest fi his/her life so that he can tell knowone. those element would most indefinatly be worse than death.

Uh.... If that guy's christian, then he might go to heaven....
unless he was a bad man, then he goes to hell and burns forver.
I think that the death penalty should be used. Only if there is enough information to condemn the accused. That means the judges would have to be a lot better and more strict.
There are many problems with just jailing the person. The guy can get out...
I don't see the point in a death penalty, it's just another man killed...why not hire police to follow the criminal while he rolls around the town, and with restrictions on where he can go and how far. but when it comes to night, he sleeps in the jail...
i've heard sometimes that when some people kill like a child and then there just put in jail, some of the other criminals kill them, and the guards let them do it, thats not exactly the death penety put that it pretty

close
Ya I heard of that.
Like when they are a rapist, the other people in the jails that have families and kids, beat them up. No one really tries to stop them because the guards probably have kids also.

yeah thats what i'm trying to say, the people allready in jail don't like wife and kid killers so they beat on him and kill him and crap
lol, jail is hell...
freedom is a caged man's heaven.
death is his way out.
WTF?
Anyway, I think some one who killed another human being should be killed. That's the price for killing a person who loves other people and is loved by other people. You're not just ruining their life, but everyone else that person knows, (Family, Friends, etc.)
I don't think the death penalty should go away but.. maybe they should make it so you get a few years of parole afterwards.

lol ok that confused me at first i was just like WTF

lol j/k j/k

[justify]Good think Canada does not support this.
You should not put someone on a death penatly. If the person is innocent then once he/she is dead he/she is dead forever. Sorry won't do anything,
What I think should happens is, for those who deserver to be put to death should just get put in prison for life. If they are innocent they can still live a life, even though they were in jail. Plus money always helps

. So many innocent people get millions of dollars are a sorry note.[/justify]

if hes innocent and put to death, hes not agan complain
He/she won't but his/she (got to be politicaly correct nowadays

) family will. And they will have a bad reputation as to having killed an innocent person. Also think about how you would feel if you were innocent and yet they are still going to kill you because they think you are guilty?

How would you feel permenantly waiting in the cheapest apartment in the world with a metal ball attached to your foot? Life sentence = same thing, it's a LOT worse for the innocent victim than Death.

your mother, she will drag you down to a cave and beat you by a stick.
even THAT sounds better than life sentence.
i've heard about this one thing thats still going on, were this guy killed 3 people so everyday he has to write a letter to the 3 families and he sends $5 and a sorry note, because a lot of people didn't want him to die or something like that, man if that was me i would be emmbarassed

[center]I'm all for the death penalty, only if it's enforced equally.
Say I go out, and kill 10 janitors/hobos/carnies, I'd probably just get something like life, or less, right?
Now, say I were to go out and kill 10 cops, I'd most likely be getting the death penalty, right?
Is this fair? Who's to say that the cops were more important than the other people? If you kill someone, you should be punished the same way if you killed someone else. If you're getting the death penalty for killing the cops, just because it's deemed a rebellion to the authoritarian system, then why apply a harsher punishment for anything else that's considered the same action? It's because this country is full of hypocrites. Nothing in this country is fail, and even if it is fair, it's not handed out fairly.
If I were to travel back in time, and kill Hitler, before he revealed his adgenda, would I be punished as badly compared to if I killed him after he took power, and started his deeds? Say I could tell the future, and knew exactly who to kill, and why? Could I be punished for making the world a better place in the long run? Man, I'm starting to sound like that Minority report movie, so I'll end with this: The death penalty is a fair punishment, only when used in accordance to the crime you've committed.[/center]
I am vehemently against the death penalty in almost all circumstances.
Good thing we don't have it here - we're not backwards like some American states.
I don'tmind it. Probably gas chamber.
