Re: Two Death Penalty Questiosns
This is an interesting line of thought that hadn't occured to me before. One that I can see some merit in.
However, I would still choose a life sentence over death in ten years, as I would still be hoping that a correction could be made. Just this week there was a story of a man wrongly convicted 18 years ago being freed on new DNA evidence.
Add in the apparent biases in race, gender, economic levels, and who knows what else by juries, judges and prosecutors and there is no way I can justify the death penalty in my mind.
