1. K&R!

Video isn't working for me

I don't know. It's appalling. We're the only "civilized" country that still has the death penalty. How ANYONE is okay with it is beyond reason.

4. same here

3. I would add

It's also becoming more barbaric, the way we put people to death. Disgusting. Any person with sense, with a conscience, with a compassionate bone in their body, would be against this.

If Matthew Shepard's parents can forego the death penalty for his murderers, so can the rest of us

5. When you're insecure you make up reasons to exist.

6. Who is insecure? The ones who aprove of death penalty??

Hunters wgo hunt for prestige and records??
Who exactly are you referring to???

12. People who kill other beings for sport. As far as the death penalty, I feel it's barbaric and..

...totally unfair and illogic but not for the usual reasons given.

7. I have no idea why we still sentence people to death,

it's barbaric and is not a deterrent to other criminals.
If someone is truly evil and not fit to be in society, then keep them in prison until they're at the age where they're no longer a threat to society.

8. I don't get it either , but I was born in Europe so maybe thats why

:'(

It really paralizes me. I'm a nurse , I fight to save lives every day.
And yet, our society thinks its OK to kill perfectly healthy humans, just as revange????!!!

It makes me ill :'(

10. That's exactly what it is, revenge,

and I look forward to the day that the DP is abolished in this country, although, at my advanced age, I fear I won't live to see it, but at least my children and their children and so on and so forth can look forward to it.

9. Because it's mostly minorities and poor people.

If rich white people were just as likely to get the death penalty when charged with a crime, it would go away so fast your head would spin.

11. There's no good reason for any of it. Just rank rationlization. Its purely shameful.
