Time To Start Putting 'em To Death

What's the holdup? How come all the scumbags on Death Row still have a heartbeat after years and years of incarceration? This is a joke!
You take an innocent life and yours' should be taken as well. Prison reform, my arse!
The death penalty should serve as a deterrent, not as an assisted living accommodation.

An eye for an eye.

It's just a fact. Why the downvote?

Why would anyone trust the gov't to make life and death decisions? They can't balance a budget, deliver the mail, pave a road, etc, etc, etc. Even worse, have you paid attention to your "peers" lately? Why would you want today's clown to decide whether you live or die?

Cost too much.

With all the stories of planting evidence and falsifying DNA tests I don't think I'm strongly for the death penalty anymore.

So are some in basic lockup. Guess we better release them all.

You want to increase the number of innocent people the state kills.

Since 1973, 144 people on death row have been exonerated. As a percentage of all death sentences, that's just 1.6 percent. But if the innocence rate is 4.1 percent, more than twice the rate of exoneration, the study suggests what most people assumed but dreaded: An untold number of innocent people have been executed. Further, the majority of those wrongfully sentenced to death are likely to languish in prison and never be freed.

Because we have for-profit prisons and for-profit lethal injection drugs and the two lobby to see who gets more tax money out of a convict.

The thing about that is that it's more expensive to put someone on death row, go through the proceedings, and execute them. It's cheaper to just put them in prison for life. Significantly cheaper.

Because that makes sense. Delaying the execution of a prisoner until all options to determine innocence are exhausted is the same thing as releasing all prisoners convicted of a crime, according to you. Wow.

They should bring back public hangings. And without all these delays.

I could say, let God sort them out...but we can free up some cells by eliminating the ones who are guilty beyond a doubt, with eye witnesses, etc.
Like if someone would have witnessed the thug who killed the truck driver yesterday and pointed him out in a lineup...I would say fry the MF!

Just remembered this...
It's getting harder for states to find the drug. 2 legitimate manufacturers have also refused to supply it for the purpose of executions.

Execution drugs delivered to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice and the Arizona Department of Corrections must be refused and either destroyed or exported within 90 days, according to court documents filed on Thursday.
The FDA made “a final decision, refusing admission of the detained drugs into the United States,” said the agency in a document filed in federal court in Galveston, Texas.
In July 2015, the FDA detained 1,000 vials of sodium thiopental meant for the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Sodium thiopental, which also is referred to as ‘thiopental,’ is an anesthetic. Texas has used this drug as one part of a lethal three-drug cocktail which also included pancuronium bromide to induce paralysis, and potassium chloride to stop the heart when administered by injection. The state no longer relies on the three-drug combination for executions.
In January 2017, Texas sued the FDA, requesting the agency release the drug from federal custody.
“The FDA previously exercised enforcement discretion regarding the importation of sodium thiopental used for lethal injection,” said Lyndsay Meyer, a spokeswoman for the FDA. But in 2012, a US District Court permanently ordered the agency to prohibit entry of (or release shipments of) foreign manufactured thiopental that is misbranded or unapproved, explained Meyer.
