nah sex offenders should get it too

Beaten until critical condition and permanent damage

Like in Ubik?

or castration

why keep people in prison for life?

isn't that worse than killing them?

and more expesnive

Well yall have a good one

I'm gonna go to bed

What if you got framed? Can't pardon a dead man

its more expensive keeping them in prison, 2 bricks slammed in the downstairs job done

Castration doesn't stop rapists btw

Download the criminal's consciousness and then if they're exonerated just upload to a robo body. No big deal

@Beemann sadly thats true

the framed point i mean

They're both true

But really it's far more expensive the way the US handles the death penalty to go through with that than life in prison

i dont know about the 2nd one so i cant say either way

@Beemann whats the longest someone has been imprisoned and then pardoned for being falsely framed

They chemically castrated a rapist and he went after women with implements instead of his now dead johnson

Decades iirc

im not talking about chemical

im talking about with bricks

Cutting it off does the same thing

then death for reafenders

yes, but how many? if the max is like 50 years, then just go 50 years than death.

The death penalty carries a lot of fucking safe checks as it should, and the cost of all that ends up being more expensive than life

we have people who have been on death row who are innocent, how is this any different?

@Schedrevka ive heard that being said yeah

and if you kept someone in prison for half their life, maybe it would have been better off killing them, then giving surviving family money if he is found innocent.

@Grenade123 i 100% agree with you there

And as good a our justice system is in comparison to most of human history there still are mistakes that are made, and making a mistake with the death penalty is far too big a risk to take for too little to gain.

I don't agree with the death penalty just because of the possibility of innocence

We HAVE found people to be innocent after their executions.

what good is releasing a man in his 80s just to live in poverty until death AND be a drain on society.

and his family

And what is to be gained from an execution? Some people feel slightly better that a dude is dead?

id rather get executed and my family get paid than rotting in a prison

@Schedrevka doesn't cost tax payer money, and you are not torturing a person anymore

well you could ebay off pulling the switch and put it on pay per view to pay off some of the deficit

If you're following due process of course it costs tax payer money. More than life in prison.
