Should the death penalty be abolished?

Why should it be? We're over-populated anyway...

是啊

I don't agree, haha

May be ~!

The death penalty is not justice. By allowing the government and the legal system to decide who lives and dies is bestowing upon them a power not meant for mankind. Family and friends of the victim often say that the death penalty is deserved by the criminal. Deserved? Is justice the motive here, or is it revenge? If death penalty advocates favor executions because they believe justice is being served, would they still be for the death penalty if one of their family members or friends was on death row? It is doubtful.
I believe that man has no right to decide when a life ends. Whether the issue be abortion or the death penalty. Yet, when a murder is committed, someone has decided a life should end. This person should be sentenced to life imprisonment, not execution. Killing this person will not bring back the victim, it will only serve as revenge.
