whilst I find it hard to understand why sentences are so short, id hardly call time in prison a "slap on the wrist"

another point that ill make; no justice system is perfect, would you rather wrongfully imprison somoene or wronfully kill them?

edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_rights_in_the_Democratic_Republic_of_the_Congo - this is the nation who you say deal with this "FAR better"?

I know of people who have been in prison for whatever reason... And they had Internet, PS3's, Wii's... It's hardly a hard life is it?

And of course, no justice system is perfect. Far from it. And i would only support capital punishment if the offender was proven by forensics or whatever.

Sure, they don't exactly prove it in Congo... But IMO this country would be a lot better off if we had the death penalty re-introduced for certain criminals.
