| Message | The major problem with the death penalty is; if it's later proved the person is innocent you can't correct the mistake. Anyway, it's more economical to keep them in prison and have them produce a good then it is to execute them, what a waste of perfectly usable resources. |

| Message | It's more expensive to have them in prision than the goods than they may ever produce. The cost of jails is high. |

| Message | AfF, we are in favor of hard punishment and prison work, but that does not justify in any way the need of death penalty. |
