This was a topic that came up in class today. The majority of the people in my class were against it. I'm curious on what your stand is on the topic.

I personally am against it, but then again, I've never had a family member murdered or raped.

Damn you Clark Kent, having you around here makes me question myself too much! I like just typing dribble to stir crap up, but the more you post the dumber I feel.

Go hit yourself in the head with a hammer a few dozen times and give us all a chance! LMFAO

i have no problem with killing the criminals that do real terrible things. i just dont like how it costs more to put someone to death rather than life in prison.

Not sure... I have to decide my stance on the value of human life and who gets to make the choice of when one deserves to lose it.

I will probably for it be for it. There a few hang ups that I have to work out before I can make the call.

Im for it. But for it to be effective. It needs to be quick. You kill someone in a robery. You or your family repays the debt. Then you get a shot in the arm in a year or two. This waiting around on death row business doesnt work.

you must be from Texas, lol

I am personally for the death penalty as long as the criminal is dangerous enough and has committed terrible crimes and shows no signs of ever swaying from his evil ways.  Then he deserves to die.

Brett Favre gets sacked again.

I don't see anything inherently wrong with the death penalty.

The main concern is that it is pretty much irreversible (not that a prison sentence is really "reversible", but you get my drift).

That, combined with my general concern about innocent people being wrongfully convicted of anything, makes me very leery of the death penalty (or mutilation or other irreversible punishments).

Our judicial system is imperfect, and our punishments should reflect that.
