I think the death penalty is a joke.
Who laffs?
Some suicidal chickin pooped person who wants the system to kill him.
Mass murderers who see an easy way out.
Etc.

If anybody kills another person in an act of revenge, Is he better than the person who commited the crime?
I think not. Revenge is a sorry ass excuse for anything.

Abolish the death penalty and let people do their time.
Any person doing 30 years talks more sense to more people than a person who has been executed. WTG Hard Time Program. Glad you guys are alive. Thanks for the good work. Was that called The Hard Time Program?
OH GEES....It was Scared Straight.............Anyways, I meant well.

WTG on the scared straight program. You dudes in the can are scarey. Thanks for caring about today's youth.

I am not sure that what I am about to say will soothe the aching hearts of people whom have lost loved ones to monsters who rape and kill but it may open your hearts and mind and free you from the bondage.
However, unfortunately, among those campaigning against the death penalty are some of those that capital punishment is supposed to help ??? victims of crime and their relatives. It never does. There is increasing evidence that capital punishment does not act as a deterrent against crime more effectively than other forms of punishment. Proponents of the death penalty claim that it helps the process of recovery of victims' families. While some do find consolation in such retribution, many others do not. It will never bring your loved one back.

Moreover, we have no right to take the life of any human being. Today, I find it very difficult to advocate death penalty even if it is to a murdering rapist serial killing monsters. The death penalty has an essential fault ??? it is irrevocable. Mistakes can be rectified, death cannot. Yet mistakes are inevitable in all systems of justice, however scrupulous the process and however honest the participants.

You have to trust that there are many alternative which exists to the death penalty. Thus society will have to recognise that its motivation in keeping the death penalty is one of revenge. Revenge serves no one and We will have to look long and hard at ourselves as individuals, our maturity, our religions and our culture. And then we will have to abolish the Death Penalty. With its abolition, our society will finally escape the noose, and our soul may yet be spared.

We must abolish the death penalty, TODAY!!!

Fry mother f***ers fry. I think it's called survival of the fittest. We have to replenish but these monsters pop up like mushrooms; you fry one, another one pops up.

I feel very strongly that people who commit very heinous crimes should not be allowed to live amongst us. Thats how I feel and my mind is made up on this issue.

Crips co-founder Tookie Williams faces execution in California on Dec. 13, 2005 unless the governor grants him clemency. Williams, convicted of four murders, ...Time is running out for Williams, who is scheduled to be executed Dec. 13 for the 1979 slayings of four people in two separate robberies. California's Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and the U.S. Supreme Court both have rejected bids to overturn his conviction. His last hope lies with Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, met with Williams' lawyers and prosecutors in a closed-door clemency hearing today. If clemency is granted, Williams' death sentence would be commuted to life in prison without parole.
It's wrong and we must stop it!

Life does not = Death. You cannot and according to true Christians, you may not take a life, if, you cannot give life. It's a shame that we are able to do this is this great Nation today. Our four fathers are rolling over in their graves daily. i think they would be disappointed with the progress.

Death penalty is a crime in and of itself. Violence = Violence.

"The death penalty is racist....The federal death penalty is used disproportionately against minorities. According to [Justice Department] figures, nearly 80 percent of inmates on federal death row are Black, Hispanic, or from another minority group."

"The imposition of the death penalty is racially biased: Nearly 90% of persons executed were convicted of killing whites, although people of color make up over half of all homicide victims in the United States."

"Death row in the U.S. has always held a disproportionately large population of people of color relative to the general population."
