  im asking this because lately in the uk 2 girls were murdered that were only 12 yrs old and now 59% population of the uk want the death penalty reinstated.. i assume you already have the death penalty in the usa, but do you think it is effective reducing 1st degree murder and potential child molesters,would you like to see the death penalty removed in the united states or not.. i wonder if the death penalty will be reinstated in the uk what do you think, personally i dont think it will maybe the politicians are afraid they wont get as many votes.

  so what is your view on all the inmates that were on death row and found to be innocent after the fact. this has happened several times in the past few months alone.

  so, with all of these statistics, you think that no innocent person has ever been executed? i know that everyone involved is as careful as can be, but they are not infallible. executed people obviously can't commit more crimes but someone who is imprisoned forever can't either. i realize they could escape but the statistics on the number of people who escape from maximum security prisons is extremely small.

  just trying to keep the argument simple, and I honestly am still on the fence about it. just like playing devil's advocate.

  i say keep them alive just in case there was a mistake somewhere. if they are alive, the mistake can be remedied. if they aren't, then nothing can be done. the police, judges and juries are all extremely compentent in what they do, but no one is perfect.

  the chance that an innocent person could be executed is too high if an innocent person is sentenced to life in prison, 

  however, they can always be released. can the dead be resurrected? it is proven that innocent people have been executed in the past 

  so what hit/miss rate is acceptable kill 99 murderers for every one innocent? is that acceptable? i don't think so. add to this, i 

  think that spending decades inside a tiny cement cell is probably much more painful than a quick death. they have forever to dwell on 

  what they did, alone in their cell. sounds like hell to me.
