"death penalty"
Right now I think there are far too many people that don't deserve life. But on the other hand who can really say who does and doesn't? Also once more there has been people who have been killed and later they were proven not too be guilty, that is unacceptable. The thing about it all the stuff they offer at prison makes it a waste of cash (cable, entertainment, Labour free) but the current cost of executing outweighs that of keeping an inmate in prison for his entire life (average). IMO the whole system needs too be reworked or for all the flaws to be pushed out. I feel we are too easy going on our inmates and no one really thinks about the fact they will be punished untill after they've done it, what kind of deterent is that?
The system may be one of the best in the world but it still lacks complete justice to the victim and the nation harbouring the crimnal. I think if the person is going to be inhuman to there victim then the government should have the right to be inhuman back, plus that saves us millions of dollars (instead of spending all that money on the execution put them in an alley and shot them in the head).
