| Message | Against: in extreme cases it may well be necessary to put someone to death. |

| Message | Name one. In this day and age there is no reason to execute a criminal exept revenge. |
| Date | 01:46:42, November 14, 2006 CET | From | Left Union | To | Debating the Government policy with respect to the death penalty. |
| Message | Everything could be a treason, everything could be an extreme case. Justice can make mistakes, how to solve it when there is a death penalty sentence? How can we explain to our children that our government actually kills people, and not in a war? Since when killing is a solution? |

| Message | When the Queen was assassinated the majority of the people at the time supported the execution of the assassin. And indeed, that is what we did. |

| Message | And did that help? Was the Queen resurrected by the death of her killer? It solves nothing, but causes more death and hurts our record on human rights. There was a time when the majority of the people probably supported our state religion and law, did that make it right? |

| Message | Sure it solved something: the assassin was gone. |
| Date | 01:18:30, November 18, 2006 CET | From | Partie Démocratique Libéral | To | Debating the Government policy with respect to the death penalty. |
| Message | That could have been done by putting him in a maximum security prison for the rest of his life. |
| Date | 07:40:36, November 18, 2006 CET | From | Democratic Party of Rildanor | To | Debating the Government policy with respect to the death penalty. |
| Message | when it comes to terrorist, mass murders, and traitors they do not deserve life in prison |
