    amen

    I am against it for one reason because of judicial errors that happens from time to time. In other words innocent people do not deserve to die.

    amen

    Proplog, anyone against the death penalty is an "idiot". Now doesn't THAT sound "idiotic"?

    Some admit to their crimes and WANT to die but they still are not allowed. That's just stupid!

    Why is that stupid? Some convicts want a sex-change operation. By your reasoning they should get one?

    One case to consider:

    No Minimus. You are stupid.

    I love these kinds of questions because they have been debated to "death".

    It also helps me to separate the superficial thinkers from the "real" thinkers. The wise and the stupid.

    In the 21st century anyone who is for the death penalty has been left behind. In fact they have a lot in common with suicide terrorists.

    No it's not. Why should a convicts "wants" be a factor?

    Against...I think they should be able to live with what they have done for the rest of their life on earth. Putting them to death is just an easy way out for them. Just my opinion.
