Capital Punishment
I know this topic has been beat to death (pun unintended) but I am going give my two cents on the subject. My feelings on the Death Penalty are thus, it is not used enough.
As of right now there are but a few crimes that qualify for it (I am omitting the ones that are eligible for it in only one state for the sake of time); Murder, Child R*pe and Treason.
Now these crimes are all worthy of it. But there are other crimes that are also worthy of it. Human Trafficking, R*pe, Kidnapping, etc. You see, the punishment is supposed to fit the crime. And all of these crimes are worthy of the Death Penalty. Anyone who commits these atrocities should not have to be supported by the very people they preyed upon.
So, until the prison system is returned to what it was meant to be, a place for punishment, and places like ACLU arem't calling anything less than 4 stars cruel and unusual punishment a life sentence is not an option for these crimes.
Argue what you will, but can you tell me with a clear conscience these...these fiends have the right to live off those they preyed upon in luxury?
