I believe that the death penalty is the best and fairest punishment for
people
who have taken other people's lives. Here are some interesting facts about
the death
penalty. Did you know that 70% of all Americans support the death penalty?
Murder rates have also been down since the death penalty was reinforced.
And
rehab techniques are so underdeveloped that no one is ever certain that a
murderer
can be rehabilitated (supporting capital).
First of all, if someone has taken someone else's life, in most cases their
life
should be taken also. If a person is so imcompassionate for human beings
and just
doesn't care what happens to anyone; if they are sick enough to take the
life of
someone else, their life should be taken also.
Second of all, would you rather pay for someone to be in prison for life in
an
environment that is most likely better than where they were if they weren't
there?
You can argue that capital punishment costs more tax dollars.......
