Since there is no guaranteed “life in prison” I say that those who argue for it are either deceitful, deluded or ignorant. In order to ensure protecting society today and tomorrow, it is society’s responsibility to make absolutely certain that this person never does it again. The only way to be absolutely certain is the death penalty.

You've ID'd the root problem: a broken penal code and prison system that does not put restraint (protection of society form dangerous criminals) as the #1 reason for incarceration.

It's easier to kill 'em than to fix the broken system. Nobody cares about criminals generally which makes it easier to stay with what we got.

Nobody cares about criminals generally which makes it easier to stay with what we got.

I care more about the VICTIMS of the criminals not the criminals. You're more worried about the criminals. See the difference? I don't give two craps about someone who murdered a victim - I care about the murder VICTIM and their family! You're here on a conservative forum sticking up for the rights of murderers over VICTIMS.
