Any morally sound person would oppose the death penalty.
Time and time again, I hear people advocating...well, murder, really. It's strange how we always leap to violence as a means to an end. A quote by Nietzsche nicely sums up my feelings on the death penalty:[i]"Be careful when you fight the monsters, lest you become one."[/i]
When we kill killers, we become the killers ourselves. What we do is no better than what they do. Showing mercy to murderers is what separates us from them. If there's not that distinction, then we're not a system of ideals, we're just a regime.
Opinions?

7 RepliesMercy is for the weak, especially when dealing with scum that I don't even consider worthy of being called "humans" anymore. That's only reserved for people guilty of -blam!-, murder, or other violent crimes like that. Personally, I say a bullet to the head into an open grave would be the simple solution for a lot of the filth we waste money on in prison cells, but oh well.
