Some people are insane, some people killed and raped 20 innocent people, some people committed crime against humanity, some people are evil, I do not see what forced working camps are more barbaric or ethically wrong compared to killing someone in an electric chair.
are you sure, that there is something like good and evil? Anyway, Im not entirely sure, but working until death is torture. Torturing to death is even worse, than a 'simple' execution. Furthermore, that would introduce slavery like conditions. Which sane person could possibly want to etablish slavery in society....
Death penalty is only acceptable in extreme cases. It should be reserved for cold-blooded mass killers who have no remorse over how terrible they are and can't be reformed. If keeping them alive will certainly result in more innocents being killed by them than it's time to bring in the lethal injection.
I absolutely agree with that. People that are a constant danger for the society and which are unable to reintegrate after commiting terrifing crimes could be eliminated, but only if there is no doubt about their guilt.
Innocent people are very often sent to prison as well, does that mean we abolish prisons?
chocolate can cause obesity and diabetes, does that mean we should abolish chocolate? you are comparing apples with pears.
