This is my hot button issue. I think the death penalty is wrong on every level. I dont understand a government that can prattle on and on about the sanctity of human life when it comes to abortion, yet doesnt seem to take issue with the fact that grown men are being killed all the time. Convicted criminals, yes, but that doesnt make them any less "alive".
Maybe I'd be in favor of the death penalty if we had a perfect judicial system with no flaws where all the guilty were definitely 100% guilty. But we dont, and because of that innocent people die. If 1 innocent man dies because of a flawed system, the system needs to be changed. |
