two biggest myths of the politics of crime -

1.) Banning guns reduces gun violence
2.) The death penalty deters crime

[/ QUOTE ]

The Death Penalty would deter crime if it was enacted publicly within 24 hours of sentencing. You can thank the appeals process for the loss of deterence.

You can also thank it for saving hundreds of innocent people from Death Row, so I'd rather not lose it.
