| Message | 1: death penalties are more expensive then a lifetime in jail. 2: the reason we have prisons is to try to rehabilitate criminals, if that fails, we can lock them up for good. Everybody deserves a second chance. |

| Message | Anyways, the death penalty is a horrible circle of logic with no real justification. The State kills people who have killed people to demonstrate how killing people is a crime only punishable by killing. Maybe we should kill the State instead? |
