Death Penalty being expensive is only a problem that liberals created because they think the absolute scum of the earth need to be killed in the most “humane” way of pumping them full of expensive chemicals. Christ, one shot to the head, shallow grave. Definitely costs less than 25 years of food and shelter.
Ok, except some people on death row have eventually been found innocent. There should be a balance.
That’s a completely fine justification of NOT having the death penalty. But, you either don’t have the death penalty because of that or you admit that the worst of the worst don’t deserve painless deaths.
I don't trust the criminal justice system to not kill innocent people, so I'd like those people to at least get a mercifully quick and painless death when it does happen. Call it a compromise.
I think if it’s impossible to be sure of innocence then you should not be possible to be sentenced to death, as one of the worst things a government can do is directly kill an innocent man. However there are some very clear cut cases (video+audio evidence and plea without coercion) where it should not matter and any execution that is quick and easy will do. I also agree with other people’s sentiment that firing squad can be more quick and painless and certainly cheaper than the shitshow that are lethal injections.
