Lol only 75. There are 3,002 death row inmates today (so this isn't even counting all of them from 1976). 75 is 2.5% of 3,002.

Lol I just lol'd.

If you look at the amount of executions that actually took place between 1993-2002, you would find that the number of voluntary executions is around 11% (13% if you broaden the scope outside those years). We can go even further to look into the suicide of those in detention centers and see that the rate of suicide is about 300 per year, but no, I'm sure you are right. Prison is a wonderful place. Its basically Chuck-E-Cheese... No one would pick death over spending time in prison.

Still, you asked for 5, I gave you about 100, and then you brush of my 100. How far can you move the goalposts? Tune in next post to find out...

EDIT: Thanks for the sources Normchacho!

Charles Manson, 80 years old banging a 26 year old: http://assets.rollingstone.com/assets/2013/article/is-charles-manson-getting-married-20131120/19948/_original/1035x713-20131119-manson-x1800-1384973102.jpg

It's not Chuck-E-Cheese obviously, but it's a lot better than death. Thus, the vast majority (and 89% is still a vast majority) prefer life over death.

 

Examples of a few people who are basically celebrities don't really speak for the majority. Also, you are ignoring the fairly large chunk of people who commit suicide in prison..

But I've already stated my conclusions and these discussions aren't really refuting any of my points...
