The death penalty means someone getting killed by the state in prison for killing someone else.

They're basically murdering someone to show them that murdering is wrong.

Two wrongs don't make a right. And there's lots of innocent people getting put to death.

What's your opinion on the death penalty?

I think they should do away with the death penalty. It does nothing to deter crime.

If it's wrong and illegal for someone to murder someone then why does it make it not illegal for the prison system to murder that same person?

They should just put the person in prison for the rest of his/her natural life and let nature takes it's course.
