Debate: Should the death penalty be used as punishment for specific crimes?
Side: Against Death Penalty

Fair in what terms? In death? I refuse to allow more deaths to occure. Where's that Moral lesson that you learned when you were a kid? Elders told you to value life of human, if you don't do so. You're judged as immoral. If you kill my mother, you become guilty. If I kill you, will that end your guilt? No, you'll just die, nothing happens, no one learns nor is there any wrong corrected. Your delusion of justice is not fair in terms of peace. It's only fair in terms of death.

Your delusion of justice is not fair in terms of peace. It's only fair in terms of death.What is moral to you need not be for another. Morality depends on what you've been taught as a kid by your parents. More specifically, it depends on the environment you grew up as a kid. The only thing then that would make sense is to have justice which doesn't depend on morality. In which case a quantitative standpoint like that of what I stand for, would be the best solution.
Debate: Should the death penalty be used as punishment for specific crimes?
Side: Pro Death Penalty

Justice that doesn't depend on morality? Morality is the only basis of what is right. Without morality we cannot provide justice instead it makes what's worse more worser. Also without morality we lose our dignity and respect to ourselves, look at the poor prostitutes who trade themselves for money. They also think it is the best to have sex with foreigners just to give their family something to eat. Same to those executors who kill just to provide safety for the citizen. Tell me , If a person has a benevolent intention but makes a cruel action can it be qualified as good ?

Tell me , If a person has a benevolent intention but makes a cruel action can it be qualified as good ?You just seem to support my point.. the question you asked in the end makes it clear why "justice" should be morality free. Morality leads to dilemmas that can't be explained to have a common solution, some people would classify your question to be among good acts, while many would do the opposite. One thing we can all agree upon is logic, hence a quantitative decision is the best fit for the situation.

Even if justice were more quantitative, it would still depend on morality, which is a little less malleable than you seem to think.

We dedicate quite a bit of brain space to moral reasoning. .Well, we wouldn't be debating on this topic if we weren't. But that's not what I'm talking about, I'm talking about the final decision made in a case(like this) where morality among people leads to conflicting opinions.
Debate: Should the death penalty be used as punishment for specific crimes?
Side: Pro Death Penalty

Yes, the death penalty should be used as a punishment for malicious murderers, as they should be paid back with what they deserve and for the safety of our society. For example, a criminal who has murdered multiple people deserves a death penalty, as he/she has destroyed the person's life and ultimately the people close to them (friends, family, etc.). In many cases, criminals have been released from jail, only to repeat the same crime and cause more damage.

A man was sentenced to hang for stealing a horse. He told the judge it wasn't fair to be hanged for stealing a horse. The judge told him he wasn't being hanged for stealing a horse. He was being hanged so horses won't be stolen.

Debate: Should the death penalty be used as punishment for specific crimes?
Side: Pro Death Penalty

The death penalty in the United States is used almost exclusively for the crime of murder. Although state and federal statutes contain various capital crimes other than those involving the death of the victim, only two people were on death row for a non-murder offense (Patrick Kennedy and Richard Davis in Louisiana) when the U.S. Supreme Court addressed this issue in 2008

Then will make them understand. Do you know why restorative justice is settled at Norway? Because they are a civilized country had know that using violence doesn't make inmate repent and has understood that the person who does felony only had mental issues. You see, even tough they don't use capital punishment they have low crime rate
Debate: Should the death penalty be used as punishment for specific crimes?
Side: Pro Death Penalty

no because no one should be killed even if they killed someone else its unfair to handle the business of nature no one has the right to take any one other than their self's life it should just be handled appropriately by just sentencing them. the reason i say this is because the judge is punishing him for killing but yet they kill the person who did it and it makes no sense because their's 2 life's taken so they should be sentenced to death if they kill people cause it does no justice

Debate: Should the death penalty be used as punishment for specific crimes?
Side: Against Death Penalty

Consider the money we use to house and feed inmates every yearBelieve it or not, the cost of executing an inmate is often more than the cost of keeping them alive. Most of this cost goes into extensive legal processes, which can and often do drag on for decades. Consider the crimes committedRegardless of the crime, regardless of whether or not I personally lose sleep at night because we execute someone who is the lowest of criminals, their previous crimes do not justify our own bloodlust. I do not begrudge an individual to seek revenge; the state should not have that kind of authority.Consider that tax money is being used from citizens to care for inmatesCovered in the first paragraph.Consider alternate methods to the death penalty- are there better ways to handle crimes other than the death penalty?Yes, absolutely. Let them rot in prison until they die of old age, let their years waste away while being stuck in a box. If I were in that situation, and knew I would be for the rest of my life, I'd probably want to die anyway.How many people are being punished with death penalty?If the Death Penalty Information Center is to be trusted, most executions are performed by China. The numbers of their executions are considered a state secret, however, it is known to be in the thousands for last year. Trailing China for total number of executions, the list goes: Iran, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Pakistan, Egypt, Somalia, and the United States. I dare you to find me a ranking of any kind that places us in league with those countries in a positive light. How severe does a crime need to be to give someone the death penalty?It should be obvious by now that I do not think we should be practicing the death penalty, not when we have legal alternative of life in prison. However, all of this said, If we are to keep the death penalty, it requires reform. Our practice, while reprehensible, is made all the more despicable by the fact that we take great pains to pretend it isn't a problem. We perform executions in intentionally out-of-the-way locations. We do them at one in the morning. We mix up experimental cocktails and pump them intravenously- giving the appearance of going out peacefully, though often, it is clear we are torturing the accused to death. This all must change. We, as a society, need to face the worst side of ourselves. We need to bring back public executions, even televise them. We need to focus on not making an execution look pretty, but make the execution quick- I wholeheartedly recommend taking a hint from North Korea, and lining up the accused in front of 14.7mm antiaircraft machine guns with a rate of fire of 600 rounds per minute. Such a machine will make a human being more vapor than solid in the blink of an eye, but you certainly don't have to worry about them suffering.Maybe, after all of this, we can look at ourselves and honestly ask how civilized we really are.

In my point of view, yes, everyone makes mistakes, but some mistakes like murder should not be forgiven. It seems quite cruel even as I'm typing but I really believe that some people just should not be allowed to live. I can't remember the name of the murderer. but there's this guy who was charged with murder and received a life sentence in 1982 or so. Somehow, he was released in 2010. He then proceed to stab two people just after his releases and was caught by the police. He later explained to the police "I felt an urge to kill". I feel like people like this guy get off too lightly with life sentences. I am not saying the conditions in prisons aren't harsh, but still he was fed and have a place to live in. Prison time should be reserved for those who can be reformed. These people clearly can't be reformed if they kill as they please and should receive death penalty, it is a fitting punishment for them to go through the same things their victims did. I also think that while this won't make it easier for the victims' families, it would at least make them feel that their loved ones' deaths were avenged.

The capital offenses include espionage, treason, and death resulting from aircraft hijacking. However, they mostly consist of various forms of murder such as murder committed during a drug-related drive-by shooting, murder during a kidnapping, murder for hire, and genocide.some people are crazy they should die too.

I see and respect you for your point but we are paying for the criminals' food, water etc with our taxes now so don't you think if we have to pay money anyways it should be for a better cause?

it also not right because you are watching the person suffer like the gas chamber,electric chair,hanging
Debate: Should the death penalty be used as punishment for specific crimes?
Side: Pro Death Penalty

But don't you think that some criminals deserve death penalties? Serial killers for example, they caused so many to suffer so don't they deserve to suffer too? I mean, from the victims' families point of view, their loved ones were killed yet the murderer still lives and is fed with their money(the tax they paid included paying for the criminals' expenses). Isn't it too unfair to them?
Debate: Should the death penalty be used as punishment for specific crimes?
Side: Against Death Penalty

Excuse me for interfering. Yes, maybe they deserve death penalty but no one has the right to be a killer. Can anything be fair if we continue killing one another? It's just right to provide for the citizen-inmate, they also need mental support not violence.

no i think you should serve the time if they did a big crime like murder he should have life in prison its their fault for doing it serve the time
Debate: Should the death penalty be used as punishment for specific crimes?
Side: Against Death Penalty

No. We cannot ever be 100�rtain we have the right people on death row. We have and will continue to execute innocents by mistake. Following that logic the state is a murderer and would have to be put to death for its own crimes. There is no evidence that it is any more of a deterrent to crime than life imprisonment. Which means its unnecessary. Which means its "unusual". Thus putting it under the purview of the 8th amendment protection from cruel and unusual punishment.Whether you buy the argument that its unconstitutional or not its just not a good policy to have.

I agree! The person that committed the crime caused harm to other people's family, so it would be the criminals fault for getting the death penalty and making their family sad.

It's not the suspect's fault why they're killed. It's because of the executioner who takes vengeance. We're just too dumb to find another solution besides violence for detterence and justice.
