Does method of execution, crime committed or overall cost matter to you?

    C) Cutting the cost of putting someone to death just increases the chances that you’re putting the wrong person to death. It’s expensive cause that’s the best way to ensure that it’s being done right. Cutting costs just means you’re going to make more mistakes.

    D) The reason we can’t do it humanely is because anyone with the training to do it right doesn’t want to participate in the process. It’s not that we’re not smart enough. And even if we can do it painlessly, it doesn’t mean that it’s still not a horrible experience.

    Why are you putting people do death? What’s the purpose? Cause it makes you feel better that this person isn’t alive anymore? Then that’s a terrible reason.

    So they won’t do it again? We already have them locked up, they’re done commiting crimes.

    So it stops others from doing it? Well, we already know that doesn’t work.

    So what’s the reason?

      People run gangs while inside. Being incarcerated definitely doesn’t stop them from committing crimes.
