"The Death Penalty"

Who agrees with the Death Penalty. I perosnally would like to see it come back for cases of Murder, Child molesering and so on. I know people say yo can get the wrong guy, but if complex detective worked is first carried out, I belive that all the Sickos should get fried! Whats you guys opinions?

Yeah!!!!!! Good to see you are on our side, Belldandy!!

I'm against the death penalty in that a dead body is of no use whatsoever to society. Nor is it an effective deterrent for people who, tired of life, decide to take a few people with them before they go.

Lock them away from society and put them to good use instead. Like on a treadmill or something.

Yeah ! Kill them all eh ?

Roj - you're sounding like just the type of person who justifies the existence of human rights groups.

Then 90% sure. If there is sufficient evidence then they should die. And those human rights people can die too, because they are one of my pet hates.

But thats just it, you can never be 100% sure of a persons guilt. No justice system is perfect. At least if 10 years down the line new evidence comes to light proving someone is actually innocent they can be released to rebuild their lives. A dead person would find this quite difficult.

I have to agree with the above statement. Having only recently found out that the actor Leslie Grantham was jailed for murder, I have found watching him in Eastenders very difficult. Here is a man with a successful career, getting on with life. Something his victim has been denied.
