    But Life In prison deter? If I want to murder someone, do you think I would care for example. People, these guys know that murdering someone for example will get them Killed or Life In Jail, so do you think they care even if they did get life? They are Useless Human Beings, derserve to be killed. SInce they kill a fellow Human, In my opninon, they lost their right to live.

    If you're an irrational serial killer do you really think you care anyway?

    The true question here seems to be do humans have the justifacation to declare that this man should die, but that man can live.

    Christains say God, others say maybe none.

    1. Effective For the People Who Think about it, Some Don't care becayse they think they can get away with it, then they get caught and say "I'm a good person, please let me have Life in Jail........".


    2. Well, God Isn't talking about it, so God will understand, trust me. And the non Believers, if they say none, then.......?

    This is horrible indeed. I prefer a long time in prison to the death penalty, and in this case I am still entitled to my opinion. Put the cousin and King together in a nice two-person cell, in which they can together reflect on the awesome deeds they've done.

    I don't think the death penalty is really a deterrent, to be honest given the choice i would rather have the death penalty then spend all the rest of my years in prison, quick and painless rather than a horrible long dragged out process.... and this is why i have been rethinking my position on the death penalty, it almost seems more humane to me to kill someone than keep them locked up until the end of thier days.

    But then the idea of having someone trapped under our power and then finishing thier life just seems sick to me, not as sick as the original crime but not far from it, as im sure you've all heard many timeres two wrongs do not make a right...

    I don't think the death penalty really works as a deterrent, im pretty sure most murderers don't care or think they won't get caught, and crimes of passion usually don't allow enough time to weigh up consequences...

    I don't think the death penalty works as a deterrent. Frankly, I don't care. Some people deserve death. I remain against the death penalty in most situations, but if the crime was brutal and the evidence conclusive beyond a shadow of a doubt, I'm for it. For in theory, against in general practice.
