Instead of paying for cable and the education lets send them to a deserted island and let them go after each other.
I am for capital punishment as long as they are guilty by DNA evidence.
As for right now the criminals get a free ride in prision 3 meals a day, room and board cabe tv a college education. We does it end. Instead of paying for cable and the education lets send them to a deserted island and let them go after each other.
My vote goes for the death penalty if, the person or persons are KNOWN to be the killer. Their are cases were circumstancial evidence can be flawed, for those, if found guilty by a jury, hard time should be served. If you are guilty beyond a shadow of a doubt, with eye witnesses and evidence to prove it, the perpatrator should be given enough time to set things straight with their God, and then put to sleep.
i also have a hard time looking at capital punishment as one man killing another. i see capital punishment more as that person committing suicide, they are fully aware of the possibility of being sentenced to death if they are caught for their crime. so in my opinion capitol punishment is the "gun" and their actions are their own finger pulling the trigger
Exile is actually a very libertarian solution, one with which I can readily agree, assuming certain details are ironed out. It's certainly far better than what we have.

They were judged by their peers. mistakes can be made. After they are judged by us, they are judged by God. If it was intentional to frame someone, those people that knowingly send someone innocent away will burn.
Capital punishment does work as a crime deterrent. Travel to some of the third world countries where the people KNOW if they mess up that they will be killed with no if, ands, or buts. No life in prison, killed usually right there on the spot. It works.

But, if someone were to harm my family, I'm pretty sure I'd be driven to take care of justice on my own. So, if I'm saying I'd want someone who committed a grievous act against my family to be pushing daisies because it is personal, capital punishment must be available for other victims' families as well.
