Especially seeing as how a lot of prisons are full, unable to take new inmates. I reckon for severe or repeated crimes you should receive the death penalty, perhaps then the crime in the UK would reduce; as would the overall number of the population but no one can complain for good over evil.

On a side note, I fucking loath the fact that eastern europeans have pretty much flocked the prison system of the UK. Thousands of them are locked up each day. Also, fuck human rights.

I 100% agree with this :y: Smile

Irrelevant. In my opinion you should always play it safe for the sake of the potentially innocent when it comes to life or death.

Without 100% proof that they commited the crime I understand why you would say this but what about those that are caught in the act?

Still irrelevant. Eye witnesses can be bribed and video surveillance can be tampered and manipulated. The risk is always too high.

I am talking about the ones that 100% commited the crime, take for instance James Holmes, it's a fact that he commited them murders.

Are you high?
^ Exactly, sometimes it's 100% proved and james holmes is a good example, and in those cases surely you would agree with putting them to death?
I would only agree with the death penalty though as long as it can be 100% proved like in the above case.

There's always the absolutely stupidly small chance that somehow it's just a huge set-up, and for that reason I still vote against the death penalty. As I said, the risk is always too high.

Even when the evidence is overwhelming? It'd only make matters in most countries better, it'd set an example for those who think prison is a joy ride. However, that's not to say throw the penalty at everyone who commits a crime, there'd of course have to be good reasoning for said action to take place.
