I am against death penalty...
it must be remembered that criminals are real people too who have life and with it the capacity to feel pain, fear and the loss of their loved ones, and all the other emotions that the rest of us are capable of feeling

Unless you have been the victim of violent crime at the hands of one of these monsters you really dont know what you are saying...

I believe the death penalty is an appropriate sentence for those offenders who have commited crimes so gross it is beyond the comprehension of others...They have no right to exist in this world once they cross that line.

I am really sorry if I sound "cold" or "harsh" but this is something I feel strongly about and although I hear your opinion I disagree but I respect your right to say what you think.

I have been.

I still oppose the death penalty.

just my input. And exactly as you do, I completely concur with your last phrase....I hear you, I respect you.

I am against the death penalty in all forms. I have been the victim of a violent crime, I still don't believe the death penalty is just in any way possible.

I oppose the death penalty for a number of reasons, but the obvious one is the inability to assure that it is indeed the guilty indvidual who is killed. There are too many stories of innocently convicted people being on death row only to be later on proven innocent...some posthumeously.

Doesn't make sense to claim one supports and loves life, yet kill in the name of the law.

Am against the death penalty.

If some of these monsters that commit these henious crimes get the death penalty or not they have recieved the death penalty spiritually anyway...I belive this with all my heart.

There is no place in paradise for these people.They shall rot for etirnity and that is a nice thing to know.It is of some comfort.

I'm against the death penalty because I believe it's taking human life away as 'punishment' or revenge - it probably does serve as a deterrent, but I think it's too harsh to be used as such.

I do not support the death penalty. Either by the state or by a mother's own hands. I am pro life. If killing someone who has murdered someone else is wrong then how much more heinous is abortion? The killing of the totally innocent.

I don't think that the two are moral equivalents and totally support the right of a woman to choose, within reasonable limits, what she does with her own reproductive capacity. I also support the right for those who are suffering pain and degradation, (such as extreme cases of motor neurone disease), to voluntarily (stress that!), choose euthanasia. But I respect others' rights to their opinions <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

best wishes - Jane
