saw this story just as I was sitting down to dinner. a big why why why to life. to those who hate no info links this is the story of a South Carolina man arrested today on charges of murdering his five children and dumping their bodies in Alabama. details are still sketchy.

Death Penalty

someone who doesn't play well with others shouldn't be allowed to play any more.

Those states already have active death penalty statutes; those laws didn't prevent this did they? He can't play if he's locked up for life AND it's miles cheaper in the long run.

He did it. No doubt about it. Still much cheaper to give him a life sentence.

With mandated appeals and all it costs some 5 to 10 times more to execute someone than it does to lock them away for life, not to mention that life spent in todays penal system is a death dragged out over decades.

He'll be a dead man soon after being released into the prison's general population anyway.

If we are going to have a death penalty (which, at least in theory, I believe we should) we need to be clear about its purpose: punishment. You do certain things - you forfeit your right to life. Those states also have life in prison, don't they? That didn't deter this crime either. No penalty deters crime, obviously.
