capital punishment in america

The Question on whether or not the death penalty is moral or just is stirring up a lot of controversy. Me personally I'm torn on the subject. I don't like that we're killing people because of their crimes, but then again these people are people that have done so much harm and caused so much pain to other people that just throwing them in jail for 40 years doesn't seem like its enough.

  1. I think tha capital punishment is ok. If you murder someone,I think that you should get be the death penalty because you are taking away many things in life and you shouldn't be able to live after taking that life.

  2. I actually think that they should banish the death penalty. I think sitting in a jail cell (of course it would have to be completely escape proof) for the rest of your life thinking about what you did...what you took away from their families, friends...I think that teaches them more of a lesson and make's them endure torture. Just like they made their victims endure.
