Message	What sort of society lets those who have committed such horrible crimes get away with sitting in the comfort of jail. Our nation should rid itself of these people.

Message	NO! If you make a mistake, and you sentence the wrong person, you can't correct it. Look to our friends the USA. Death penalty doesn't have any effect on crime rates. You have to see death penalty as a way of preventing future crime and as a repressive way to take on criminal acts. Research has proven that pure repressive ways do shit about crime. Crime rates still rise! Prevention and repression is a better way to take on crime and criminal offenders. Death penalty doesn't fit in this philosophy. Therefor we vote against this proposition!

Message	I have to agree with the Socialistic B2AF Party one mistake could lead to the death of an inocent person, this is not acceptable what if 500 mistakes are made, the curent system of jailing dangerous criminals is dealing with the situation. I will vote no unless convinced otherwise

Message	This sentence would only be used for the most terrible of crimes and as such, it would be preceded by long and detailed trials that as a result, would leave the chance of convicting an innocent person miniscule or even non-existant. These types of crimes will only be committed by the most terrible and persistent of criminals, those that would only be encouraged by a spell in prison, no matter how long and so the only way to rid us of these people would be to introduce capital punishment.

Message	You are winning me over, how about a compromise? Only sentance criminals to death if there is 100% DNA evidence that they committed the crime.

Message	No judicial court system is perfect, mistakes can and are made, false witness, misinterpretation of evidence and government corruption are just a few possible reasons why capital punishment should always be illegal. 1 may mistake should not be exceptable. Sorry for posting in your guys region.

Message	I agree with the Centrist Coalition Party. The death sentence should only be enforced when there is 100% DNA evidence of the crime and so it must be them who comitted the crime and so should be sentenced to death.

Message	As long as the weight of proof is considerable, the death penalty is an acceptable solution for those who we cannot chance to escape, and those who show no remorse for their crimes. There are studies that prove it is a deterrent, but that is not our reason for supporting this.

Message	ok so i'll vote for this only if it is applied to Homicides and child murderers where DNA evidence analysed by 3 seperate labs proves 100% the person commited the crime! And they are allowed an appeal. What do you say?

Message	The NLF supports this bill whole-heartedly (apart from the dodgy spelling lol). People such as murderers, terrorists, rapists, peadophiles and so on are the scum of the earth and should be put to death.
