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

QUOTE(Kathleen @ May 18 2004, 3:30 PM) There's not many people that are innocent that get convicted for murder. There are many ways in today's modern world to target the real criminal. Besides, if he or she is innocent, there are things such as appeals. It's quite hard to be proven guilty when you're innocent nowadays. If you're innocent, you'll find a way to prove such. this isn't always true. if you don't have an alibi, it turns to be your word against someone else's. in lots of cases there's no way you can prove yourself innocent. and i agree with tkproduce. it just seems wrong that the government is willing to risk the lives of a few (a tiny number, but still a number) of innocent people just to be able to get rid of some criminals. i mean it is wrong for us to act like we're god and kill already living people, guilty or not, but to add to the fact that they also risk killing innocent people to do so, it's wrong. |
