Death penalty has no place today. It’s barbaric, and, at least in america, it’s like 5% of those executed are innocent. I don’t know the exact number, but that’s not good enough. Imagine waking up one day to be executed and you did nothing wrong.
You can always release somebody from prison, you can’t pick them up from the afterlife.
That’s great! I hope more countries follow their example.
This is good!
Good, death is an escape from punishment. If you want someone to suffer for their crimes, keep them alive and miserable in jail. The only hell is the one we live in now.
Yeah, but nobody should be sentenced to suffering. Rehabilitation and restitution, yes.
Rehabilitation and restitution
That’s what the Spanish Constitution says in its article 25, and I agree.
In general I agree, but the existence of the death penalty at all is not rehab or restitution, but to cause suffering. I don’t believe in eye for an eye, but if the goal is punishment, death is only an escape from punishment, whereas keeping them alive and in jail for as long as possible is to me way more of a punishment.
