Should capital punishment be legal?
While I am generally for "an eye for an eye" punishment, I'm against death penality, since the reasoning behind trial is not only the person being brought to his just desserts but also helping the community/saving lives of people who might be affected by said person in the future.
People who would get the death penality would be locked into prison with only the uttermost basic rights, would have to work for their food, and belongings, but should not be killed.

See you later, armadillos! Unless I see you first!

Why isn't writing them off as 'scum' okay when writing them 'off' as human is?
Eh? They were humans to begin with. There's nothing to 'write off' concerning that.

making them living test subjects for medicine and other areas is way more interesting.

Now THAT would be scary. Seriously, this shows what evil masterminds you actually are. Not sure if totally kidding.
By the way, I wouldn't be surprised if that's exactly what's happening in prisons right now.
********'s a pretty good fertilizer

I think we should throw all prisoners on an abandoned island. Let them survive on their own. We don't care about the prisoners anymore, whether they live, die, whatever.
It would be a very cheap solution and a very effective one.
Just throw them on an island, problem solved :P
YES another Australia! I really want to go to the first Australia but an Australia junior should work.

I'm not necessarily against the idea of killing somebody for their crimes if enough proof can be provided, but the system in its current instance is a HUGE sink of tax money in the US for example. And such a system is just a waste, so I'd be for abolishing that if anything.
i agree with this on the whole lol
we haven't gotten to a point where the justice system gets it right 100% of the time. mind you forensic testing has gotten us MUCH closer...though even than the element of a human jury rolls the dice a bit no? i don't like the idea of taking an innocent man's life...
i do have to admit though...the whole 'hey we have twenty witness and physical evidence that say this man chopped off these 20 kids heads...we should lock him up for insanity'...no...we should make him suffer for years...maybe chop off a finger or toe once a year..something along those lines....lethal injection is too quick and painless for crazies like that.

i dunno about you Bio but being stuck in a room for the rest of my life all alone is gonna make me suffer a whole lot more than getting a finger chopped off for a year
its more of a psychological suffering which is worse than physical suffering, because you can heal from the fingers getting chopped off thing you have
plus that falls into the "cruel and unusual punishment" that murca isnt supposed to do

How could I kid on this? If someone can kill another human then they certainly can lie (or try to) lie their way to freedom, and anyway why should they be treated as humans and given a second chance? why should they have a second chance when whoever they killed couldn't and considering the amount of repeat offenders and people that murder on parole should they get a third chance? NO. The world a right now is ****ed up and if you deny that you are blind right now we give murderer's second chances when they didn't give their victims second chances and we let rapists go free. Why give someone a second chance if they **** up? say you're at school and you fail a class, the teachers will most likely let you try and redeem your grade, I'm sorry but you ****ed up you face the consequences, you kill someone you don't deserve a second chance.
Second chance?
People on death row are always offered a last meal. How does eating food equate to being given a second chance. You're pulling all this stuff out of your ***. No one who has ever been on death row has escaped the sentence, ever.
