Just something i wrote a little blog entry for and was wondering on your points of view and what you think of mine 
Quote: | The other day at school, we got on the subject on if being sentenced to die is correct or if we should abolish it. Everyone in the class went one way or the other with out any real thought besides me. wassat
Okay, tell me this. Why can a Man/Woman take a child, rape it, kill it in the most vial , painful way you can think of. The victum goes though the worst pain you can imagine, things that you don't even want to think of. Screaming for help , but the cries go unheard. THen they are thrown into a lake and left there for months until the body is finaly recovered.
Then, their murderer is found. He is brought in front of a jury of his / her peers and sentenced to die by leathal injection. A process that does not hurt AT ALL thanks to the drugs they give you before they actually proceed killing you. You basicly go to sleep as peacefully as can be. In a thought , the cards have been delt and the peice of scum has died, justice served in some's eyes, mine not being one of them.
Okay, tell me this. WHY should someone that could do this to a child, or anyone for that matter , for NO reason what so ever, put someone else through so much pain, and the family of freinds included and then get to die so peacefully? WHY? This is where my view gets a tad twisted, but follow me.
I belive they should have to go through pain, i mean absolute boarderline torture. The fuckers do NOT deserve rights, they took a life, a beutiful life, one of Gods creations. They didn't give that poor dieing woman /man / child the right to life, they stole that from them in the most brutal of ways. THEY SHOULD NOT BE GIVING THE PLEASURE OF DIEING WITH A GOD DAMN NEEDLE THAT PUTS THEM TO SLEEP. They shouldn't even be gave a last meal, a last phone call, nothing. That would be nice, and these people are not NICE.
"Well, what way would YOU suggest changing this??" wassat
People always complain "Well it cost so much to put someone to death, it will cost less to let them live" Have you ever taken your head out of your ass and thought of why??? I'll tell you why, Its because of all of the money we spend on giving them the last meals, last phone calls, THE DRUGS WE USE TO KILL THEM!!!.
How do we fix this? Eaisly. Instead of housing them for YEARS and then using leathal injection. We put a gun to there ear and pull the trigger. Our cost would drop DRAMATICLY. 1 bullet per custumor, we let them bleed to death, no last meal, no last phone call, the sentence is carried out a max 2 months after it has been decided the guilty will die.
wink Just my thoughts.

Incognito | While I find myself agreeing with you, I must disagree with your seventh paragraph. It isn't just the meal, phone calls, and lethal drugs that drives the cost up, it's the years of appeals. Each court case costs money, and who pays for it? The government. This is where most of the costs come from. As you suggested, the execution date should be moved up a lot. I wouldn't go as far as saying 2 months because this doesn't leave enough time to double check the evidence to ensure that they are, in fact, putting the right person to death for the crime they have been charged.

Killing criminals instead of letting them leech off of society for the rest of their lives is much more logically sound in the whole scheme of things.
