Death Sentence Should be Banned

"LWOP cases are much more expensive"North Carolina was just a very mild example. What about in California? It costs 250 million per execution and only 1 million for jailed for life. I will also point out that you have no link to prove that. So how am I supposed to know if the link is credible or not? Therefore, your attack on my debate becomes useless."Opponents ludicrously claim that the death penalty costs, over time, 3-10 times more than LWOP." I have a LINK that says that, so it is proved. I can also find many other links if you are still not satisfied. Think twice before you speak. Also, not to be mean or anything, but can you speak more fluent English? It's kind of hard for me to read."No system of justice can produce results which are 100% certain all the time. "So therefore, we also aren't 100% sure if the guy was guilty? We should not have the ability to execute one unless we have UNDISPUTABLE evidence, while one should be kept in jail if we are not sure he is guilty."Actually has less crime rate than those states without the death penalty."Yet we have no SCIENTIFIC evidence that the death row helps. And I've got a link to back it up. [1] How can we know if it's not just a fluke. So one of the many states has a lower crime rate. Maybe people in Texas don't commit as many crimes as Californians do. I live in California, so I should know.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________Now it's time for me to attack some of your arguments.On your argument, retribution, is correct. They do deserve to die, but they would in fifty years anyway. When you're on death row, you die quicker than LWOP, and therefore have no chance to either learn and/or show that they learned a lesson, while life in jail gives them plenty of time to see their wrongdoings. Therefore, it would be easier to just stick 'em in jail, and good would come out of it, also.On your second argument, the innocence project, you left a ton of flaws. First off, you only said that is HELPS. It doesn't confirm, does it? Even one innocent kill makes a huge difference. Everyone reading this, pretend your most closely loved relative was falsely killed. You would be casted into deep depression you never should've had to feel. Second off, even if the risk of making a terrible mistake is very small, you just said that THERE IS STILL A CHANCE. Did you know that 146 people have been released from death row since 1976 [3]? That's 146 lives that could've been wrongly convicted due to a bias system that shouldn't exist. Way to go, death row just killed a father or a son. If there is no credible evidence that we have never killed an innocent person, there is no evidence against it. In fact, there is more evidence that says we did kill a guy (see link in first debate) that we actually DID! Also, a fatal wreck and death penalty are not comparable at in any way.And on your last argument, you also left me a spot to dig in. The people are obviously mad in rage and do not realize the consequences. Families should see the pros and cons. Because if they did, I have a feeling that many would choose life in jail compared to death sentence. And tax payers are "tired of wasting money on jail." IT COSTS MORE FOR TAXPAYERS FOR A DEATH ROW [2]!!!! Consider that, and that whole argument just proves my point even further. It costs people in California 114 MILLION per year [2]!______________________________________________________________________________________________________________All of that and I haven't even started on my arguments yet? Kind of hard to believe. So I will only be doing a few arguments because I've already listed three very strong ones in the first round of this debate.Argument One: Death Row Does Nothing to Stop Crimes [3]I'm going to come right out and say it: this argument is unarguable. In the south, 80% of death row and executions happen. Yet the south has the highest crime rate in all of America. The death row did nothing to stop that. I will say this again: scientific tests have been run and proves nothing besides people are not influenced to not commit crimes because of the death row. Argument Two: Human RightsThe Human Rights Law specifies that all humans, even criminals, have some freedom. Tell me how sticking them in the electric chair is any form of freedom. At least in jail you get the freedom to live, but live terribly. Even though it is inhumane to commit a crime, it is more inhumane to murder via electric chair or hanging. It's less manlike than a criminal murder, even! The electric chair does two things: commit murders and take money out of our wallets! It should be banned at all costs!It's been very fun debating with you so far![1] http://www.deathpenalty.org...[2] http://www.nytimes.com...;[3] http://www.deathpenalty.org...
