[QUOTE="TwinCrier, post: 14889227, member: 4714"] Again, how can I show it's a deterrant? Isn't everyone who doesn't commit murder deterred by something, even if it's just their lack of oppourtunity? You know how many people are deterred from committing murder? EVERYONE who doesn't do it. If someone is truly not deterred by the thought of facing execution, then wouldn't every murderer just simply turn themselves in? I'm not saying those of you who are against justified execution of murderous felons wants them all to go free, I'm saying that is what will and does happen. Sentences of "Life without parole" are given parole all the time. Why even hold parole hearing except that they intend to give them parole evenutally once they figure people have forgotten. Why allow those given "life sentences" to apply for early release? I can understand why the murderers want commuted sentences, what I don't understand is why a potential future victim such as yourself would want to give killers such oppourtunity. I have no problem with executing the right people. Innocent until proven guilty is great. It's the idea that once they are proven guilty that we should continue to treat them as innocent that I have issue with. [/QUOTE]
