    Default Re: Death Penalty

    It's like this, a life term in prison, (in India atleast) is not a life term at all....it's 14 years I think.
    Now, there are some people, who kill, despite knowing that it's wrong....they are aware of everything, and yet they do it. Such people ought to be executed themselves. They don't deserve to live. It's like show respect and earn respect....if you don't respect the other person's right to live, you don't have right to live either.
    In my opinion, all people who commit a murder ought to be executed. This is something that should be absolutely 'not-negotiable'. And if not this, then atleast, atleast they ought to make life imprisonment mean a chap should remain in prison until he dies. It's useless otherwise send a man to prison once, and he won't think so much of going in again.
    I remember reading this news in paper several years back. The police had caught a killer for hire, who'd committed quite a few murders. Political ones mainly. They'd shown a pic of him in the paper as he went into the courtroom, and he was grinning in it. As if he feared nothing. Such a man, a cold blooded killer....does he not deserve to die? ofcourse he does. you sentence him for life, he gets out after some 10-20 years, comes back out and starts on hiw old profession again....what then?
    I'm for stricter laws. You abide the laws if you want to stay well. If you toe the line, you pay the price. No dilly-dallying then.
    Infact I'd say, in such cases the courts should only be used to decide if the person in question even deserves a quick death or a slow one.
