What do you all think? Should there be a death penalty?
Why or why not? |

QUOTE(AngelicEyz00 @ May 13 2004, 3:42 PM) I'm against It. i agree w/Christina that the government doesn't have the right to kill someone... I understand the situation, but I think the easy way out would be the death penalty... Rotting in a jail cell for the rest of your life is worse... & I doubt it's so easy to escape when you're held in a maximum security jail QUOTE In 1962, James Moore raped and strangled 14-year-old Pamela Moss. Her parents decided to spare Moore the death penalty on the condition that he be sentenced to life in prison without parole. Later on, thanks to a change in sentencing laws in 1982, James Moore is eligible for parole every two years! He served a lousy 20 years in jail for demolishing every bit of potential to lead an excellent life that Pamela had. Who knows, maybe she would have been the person to find a cure for AIDS? Guess we'll never find out. I know I'm double posting.
