My personal opinion on the death penalty and the reasoning for it summed up in one picture;

This isn't freedom. This is fear.

Blame this site for that, it's so hard trying to insert or copy an image onto this site. Editted the original post with the caption.

In that case, I fully agree with you. That is the exact reason why the death penalty is still used in the countries that use it the most. This country is the sixth highest, "only" executing 39 people in 2013.

We're behind Saudi Arabia (79 the same year, despite a much lower population), Iraq (at least 169, despite an even lower population), Iran (369, starting to see a trend?), North Korea (they don't release their records, but it's believed to be thousands), and China (they also don't release records, but the estimate is 2,400 official executions, key word there is "official").

The three countries below us are Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen, three places we also aren't exactly friendly with, who I doubt have justice and deterrent in mind when they do it.

This should tell you something.

I am the peel doesn't captain America also say the punishment usually follows the crime. We don't kill potential murderers we kill convicted murderers. This isn't project insight.
 
I believe the death penalty should be reserved for homicide related offenses as well as heinous acts such as statutory rape (see Kennedy) that significantly and negatively impact someone to the point where it is nearly similar to death

Like, are you for real?

So if an 18 year old has sex with a 15 year old (statutory rape in a lot of states) you think they should DIE? 0__0
