do you think the jury was right in sentencing scott peterson to death?
this kind of corrolates with capital punishment...but theres also the problem of whether or not he really did do the deed..etc

I don't agree with the death penalty for anybody. Isn't it the same thing as what they're punishing scott peterson for? You might call me religious, but God gave us life and only God should have the right to take it. Plus, what if he turned out to be innocent.

It's a bigger crime than what he's being punished for.

Seperate church and state, the thing our country was founded on. It may not apply to common life but the one place it still applies in is court. Court is the last thing in America where every man is infact created equal (barring the jury hasnt been bought or some other tampering). For people who say "blah blah leave him in jail make him think of what hes done." have you ever truly seen what a national maximum security jail is like? Its like being a low middle class citizen. You have free time, you have work (like everyone else) you have computers, tvs, books, and even music for your enjoyment (Be it only an hour or so a week). Inmates get the best medical service in the country, better than the rich pay for theirs. Living in jail your whole life isnt like it was in the 50s when the guards would walk around bashing your head in. Infact for some of the people who live in slums and ghetto these jails are a better lifestyle than they see in their own neighborhoods. Many street criminals have admitted that they would rather go to a mininum/regular security prison just to get away from the normal life.
