I'd prefer the death penalty to life in prison.

Life in prison is in my eyes just a slow death sentence.

The death penalty isn't applied with any consistency from case to case.

A prosecutor will go for the death penalty against an unsympathetic defendant but not for a more sympathetic one.

While I'm not for the death penalty, it would be better if justice were applied with a more even hand, everyone who commits capital murder faces the death penalty instead of just low IQ black men with a minor criminal historys.

    It confers right on victim, to justice
This bothers me for a bunch of reasons I don't even want to get into.
