The Queen's QOTD: DEATH PENALTY

  Do you support the death penalty???


if so, can you explain to me is the death penalty worth innocent people, or shall i say, the wrongfully convicted,  losing their lives??? 

if you are for it, why or why not?

If you are against it, why or why not?

i am not trying to pick an argument, i am just trying to get a better understanding of peoples views.  please.... be respectful of different view points.

my thing is, the whole thing is based upon the potential of human error.  The Jury. yeah, there are some cases that are open and shut, but are those being rightfully put to death worth the lives who are wrongfully convicted just so the sociopaths get what they deserve?
