Eh, sometimes the person is later found innocent. :xThe death penalty should be mandated as federal law in the United States, with the government revoking states rights to abolish it or not. Each citizen would be entitled to five years to make appeals and thereafter swiftly excecuted unless new evidence is uncovered. In addition to this, the death penalty should be re-instated in all of Western Europe and the modern world, with the option of publicly televised excecutions.
Where are the pro-death penalty Europeans...I know you're in here somewhere...
Otherwise yeah.
Or are you implying that this would be for each and every criminal? o_o
