General - The death penalty. - View Post

Those who support it. How would you feel if an innocent man was sentenced to death? Even sending one man to his death is reason enough that

Despite how good technology may become there is always the chance of making a mistake and  corrupt government/CIA/police planting evidence to incriminate a suspect. 

Imagine if your: father, son, brother or friend was innocent of the crime and was put to death? No innocent man should face the death penalty. 

In the past there have been a number of innocent people who have been executed and they were innocent of all charges. no evidence and no DNA. Witch hunts/hearsay, plantation of evidence was enough to have a person framed for crimes they did not commit. 

Watching a man cook in an electric chair, hung and his neck breaks, face the firing squad or a number of other ways of execution is not a pretty site. It is still murder. 

In Middle East they frequently throw stones at a person until they are dead. Bloody mess. What if that person was innocent and framed for a crime they did not commit? Too late for that poor man.
