Re: This is why I\'m for the death penalty.
[ QUOTE ]
A life sentence can be reversed. A death sentence cannot. Sure, a life sentence cannot be fully reversed if someone has served some time, but a death sentence cannot be reversed at all. This is really an obvious objective truth, so I don't know why you would want to zone in on this distinction to make your argument.

My defense of the capital punishment is made on the basis of a functioning fair legal system being in place, and that those who are given this punishment have committed the crimes under the circumstances that I feel warrants this perticular punishment.
When someone I think have fulfilled everything required for him being executed I dont want or need a reversable solution. Those criminals that I feel are deserving of this penalty I think we are better off without, and dont want them in prison or anywhere else.
And Im staying away from the firearm/nuclear weapon comparison.
