Do you agree in death penalty?

[Kingigolo]

No matter the 'offense' or 'crime' no man or set of men have the right to decide who lives or dies. It's just plain wrong.

[tomalours]

Death penalty should not be a thing. We have multiple examples of people imprisoned for nothing and the truth that come out some months or years later. If you kill someone and then you realise he's not guilty, how should you feel?
Also, we should not imprison people unless they committed a severe crime. When I see the amount of people imprisoned in the U.S. because of weed for instance, that just make me sick.

[salamyman]

Death is too easy a solution.
Those that have done such terrible things should be let alive to think and repent for the rest of their lives about what they've done.

[fritzbird]

Because of the alarming frequency and increasing cases and numbers of heinous, gruesome and senseless crimes of today,
I am obliged and compelled to agree with the death penalty. That is if proven that the said criminal is the real culprit behind
the crimes.

Hardened criminals never repent. If they are let off, then in all probability they will be harassing the family members of the victims. That should never be allowed to happen. The criminal must be permanently removed from the society. This removal can be in the form of a death penalty, or he can be sent to some labor colony where he will remain for the rest of his life.

I'm not saying they should be free - but not killed. Death is an easy escape. To live incarcerated - and see how it is to have your life messed up.

Death penalty doesnt fit modern society. Not to start with the horror stories of innocent people sentenced to death...

Also look at Rodrigo Duterte. Killing because of drugs..? Jesus.

[Jorge158]

I believe that people should be tried by the law and death penalty is too harsh. I believe that there are other deserving punishments for those people than death penalty.

[jomarthegreat89]

If the crime was grave and if the person is convicted without a shadow of a doubt, I would definitely go for death penalty. There's no other way to set a good example for others that might commit the same crime.

[reymartH]

No. Many innocent people are affected by this penalty because they have no chance to speak their rights. As I know, the rate of INNOCENT people being killed is greater than the rate of CRIMINALS being killed by this penalty. We have human rights, but with this penalty, some people doesn't have the ability to show their evidence that they are not guilty.

[lodi123]

I believe that we just borrow our lives from God. And He is the only one who have right to take them away from us.

yap its true.Only God can give and take our life.

Why do you say that death penalty doesn't fit the modern society? What do you suggest as a replacement? I am fine with life without parole in a penal colony. But then you will say that such punishment is too draconian and doesn't fit with the modern society as well. I am NOT fine with your suggestion of keeping the criminals in a 5-star facility for a few years and then releasing them back to the society.

[BlackRock]

The death penalty deserves to be given to the criminals and  terrorists who are are involved in gruesome acts
This will be a lesson for other who will think otherwise before committing crime

[NorihiroName]

There cannot be a certain answer to this question because we don't know what's after the death...it can be like mercy

[kurt1212]

Oh yes for those terrorist who kilss every innocent people and also all the rapist and drug lords.

[Wylie330]

Killing people is a mortal sin. But for me, death penalty is the exception. Because of the heinous crime we are now suffering almost everyday. Those who kill innocent people should be punish by death penalty.

[babala]

i disagree in death penalty because every one deserves to live and giving a chances even you are the worst person in this world that God only can get that life. maybe life imprisonment is more than enough to pay his crime committed.

[Jessica Gayla]

No. Because it's a sin to God. Because God is the one who gave life to people so he is the only one who will take it.

[bernashka]

Think about it - if you allow the death penalty in such brutish conditions as in our "rule of law" - it will be wetted right and left as they are now - on trumped-up charges, for bribes or simply because of personal dislike of the authorities!

Why do you say that death penalty doesn't fit the modern society?

If you want to hear someone else's opinion, I think it doesn't fit modern society because today many people understand that bad guys weren't born serial killers or whatever. It could be said that they have become bad guys because of that very society. And death penalty, besides being an outrage and disgrace to humanity on its own, is refusing to accept this responsibility.
