we shouldn't interfere in the work of our creator-god.we,human beings are puppets in the hands of the mighty and should remain so;not trying to be proved better than him.Furthermore,there are numerous of alternatives to be considered before choosing the path of ''death penalty''. |

I think the death penalty is horrible and no one should be killed incase future evidence comes up later. |

I disagree.
To what everyone has been saying about how capital punishment violates the constitution because of a person's rights to happiness and life, stop and think for a second. These people are being executed because they have violated someone else's rights to happiness; they have murdered someone.
I, as a Christian, I agree with forgiveness, but there is a point when people need to face their actions. It's not like we're killing innocent victims who can't fight back for themselves; quite the opposite. Once someone has killed, it only gets easier to do it again, not harder.
When these people killed, they made a conscious decision to do so, and they must face up for what they did. |

Sir:
In my opinion the death penalty,goes against the constitution of the
united states.Because it says Behold these truths to be self evident
that all men are created equal, with certain unaliable rights.And among these rights are life, liberty, and the persuit of happiness. |

made a mistake in last comment. The government SHOULDN'T be able to decide who lives and who dies. Our government need change and we need change and they need to abolish the death penalty |
5/8/2009 |
| Briana |
the death penalty is the government legally taking the life of another person. If anothe rperson can;t take the life of another perosn why should the government be able to. The government is just abusing its power. The government should be able to decide who lives and who dies |

I think that the death penalty is just a waste of time because there ain't no way the victim will just come back to life like that if you execute the criminal...and thats STUPID! |

the capital punishment that can lead to a injustice which can take a precious life away and let the criminal freely and i think that it should be banned in every country that is going on like iran and usa. |

i think that capital punishment is very bad because you is pitting a lot of effects on the society around you. If you really didn't know it is really not stopping crimes at all because the more you do death penalty the more crimes because people feel like if you hurt my family or friend i'm gonna hurt you. |

capital punishment is not the only way that justice can be served. killing someone is immoral, and i believe the government agrees with me, but then why is they a thing such as capital punishment. Im strongly against it and will always be. |

plus even if we did kill the murder we would be sinking to there level.
so would that make us any different |

the thing is with capital punishment is that how can you be sure if the persons guilty or not.
we could be killing an inocent man |

capital punishment should not be banned
criminals should be punished
we must first find out the real culprit then punish the latter |

capital is inhumane and should be removed from our justice system. It is not right for the state to kill off someone who killed someone else because then its just being hypicritical. How can the state kill off someone in the name of justice, its just not right. Morality is never upheld by a legalized murder. Killing off the accused is not going to bring back the victim, and no matter what kinda of justice the state gives the murderer it is not going to fill the void one has for there lost loved one. The death penalty is not only barbaric, in what is suppose to be a civilized society, it is a cruel and degrading punishment, and a deniel of human rights. |

I like to think about it like this: If you enter into a contract with a painter to paint your house, and he fails to complete the job, do we just forbid him from entering into any other contract? No, we sue him, not only for cost of having the paint done but for damages as well (pure punishment). Well, when someone kills someone, they've violated the social contract (see thomas hobbes), so instead of just incarcerating them, we should kill them. Think about it logically and rationally rather than emotionally. |

If you are against the death penalty than I sincerely hope you or a close family member is raped and killed. That way, you will know what it's like to have to give your money to pay for food and shelter to someone you raped and killed a family member of yous. Then, and only then, do I want to hear your opinion on the death penalty. Oh, and the purpose of it is not to deter, bu to punish...that's it. |

i just wntd to comment on mr unknown for sayin" i bet that all them white people were the ones who wanted the death penity to be a law"
i am white, my best friend is an african american and we both agree that death penalty should be banned as we are all human being no matter what colour we are, we still don't have the power to decide whether a person should lose his life, his last breath or continue it happily knowing that it was a matter of second away from losing his life, no human being have the power to take someone's life away even if that person is guilty. maybe life imprisponning can be enough as the guilty person will have to live his life with his sins and guilt that will torture and hunt him for the rest of his life inside the four walls. furthermore, why should we entre race in his topic, colours don't matter,they made a crime they have to pay for it no matter what gender, nationality, religion or colour. In law's eyes we should be all equal. |

What does she mean by "48% homicide rate"?... 48% of what? Also there are obviously going to be more homicides in New York than Wyoming. Capital punishment is just one factor. There is no evidence that there is no deterrence. I'm not really sure if there is evidence for deterrence either. |

My parents opened my eyes to be against it because who are we to judge anybody. Give them life in jail..maybe someone else will end their life. |

I don't think that when you comment a crimeyou should get the death penity,because everybody really does need a second chance. If you are with the death penity you really need to think about if that was you! |

Yo mama is so fat, when she got the death penalty for shooting a man who broke into her house, and they hung her, they had to use a construction crane. |

I agree that Capital Punishment is a cruel and unfair crime. Basically, it is premeditated murder... I dont think that anyone should agree with it because it is a crime and shouldnt be allowed in the U.s |

| Miashe |
That such a great argument! |

| Annonymous |
My opinion on capital punishment is that I am for, yet against, capital punishment... To me, it's entirely situational... Also, shut the heck up to the people who're just posting random stuff about teachers and "Yo mama" jokes and wasting our time
For example:
If an old man were to shoot a guy who was trying to break into someone else's house, steal their possessions, then KILL them! I believe that the man who killed the intruder shouldn't be sentenced to death.
Actually Happened! How messed up is our society? |

capital punishment is not good because human life has its own value.Basically the person is well and good but some nature to make the person bad.we give a chance to the person to change is behaviour.and in other hand it is good why because we are unable to change the person is very criminal and natorious then the capital punishment is required... |

We should not deny even the most hardened criminals the chance to reform and make amends to society. How can they realize their mistakes if we execute them? |

Personally, I have no problems with the captital punishment and I am, suprisingly, what some folks were call a card carrying liberal.
Here is why i hold my view...
1. Denial of basic right - Isn't that what the person being executed did to their victim(s). Let's not forget, we don't exececute people for
jay walking. They are on death row because they killed someone.
2. The possibility of error – This is a sticky point for me as I do work for the innocence project. There are plenty of people who are wrongfully convicted and there have been a few cases where peopel were wrongfully executed. I don't really have an answer for this and it would be the one and only reason I would be against capital punishmnet.
3. Unfair Judgment - This may be true, but the person still kiled someone and death in a death penalty state is an option. I don't argue that minorities may very well recieve a death sentence more often, but that does not require we discontinue it, merely equalize the judgments for all felons, regardless of race or gender.
4. Lack of Deterrence - I agree with this, at least in the US. There is no evidence that capital punishment deters crime. However, I am not against retribution or lets say it, revenge, which is really what capital punishmnet is in this country.
5. The prolonged uncertainty – If we are competent enough to lock a person away in an 8 x 10 box for the rest of their life, we are competent enough to execute them.
6. Justifying circumstances - This is a factor across the board in our justice system, not just in capital punishment. In fact, more individuals are locked away for long periods instead of recieving hospital treatmnet than are executed. In either case, how we prosecute persons is teh question, not the judgment we hand down.
7. By giving capital punishment, the family of the victim is permanently traumatized and victimized. They are often punished by their loved ones without their fault, even though they are innocent. -
And what of the family of the "victims" victim? i have little sympathy for the so called victim of execution as he or she had no sympathy when they killed. They may after the fact, but that is AFTER the fact. It's unfortunate that the killer's family must endure the pain, but their loved one caused pain and must pay a price. In this case, it is death.
8. Effects on society – And by playing violent video games, people are motivated to committ violent acts. Really? I don't think so. Whatever happened to CHOICE? FREEWILL? PERSONAL RESPONSABILITY? Are we as humans so frail and easily influenced that we cannot do these things because we stupidly choose to? |

Capital Punishment i think is cruel and should not be if you did give the life you shouldnt take it. A government tells its society not to kill but yet they do the opposite. |
