If you are found guilty of murder or some other heinous crime, you should pay the ultimate penalty. I personally favor the electric chair over lethal injection. How much of a punishment is it to get a shot in your vein and die peacefully. I know people on the verge of dying in great pain who would choose that option. I say let em FRY!!! I will be more than happy to flip the switch!

i like the electric chair so they feel some pain but it is a waste of tax payers money just use a rope it can be used pretty much forever.

i do not like the death penalty at all....i am totally against it...i feel that the death penalty puts us on the same level as the evil doers...

I believe that for certain crimes it's appropriate. It needs to be enforced more consistently though, and the eternal appeals thing needs to be curtailed. The electric chair is fine with me; so is hanging or the gas chamber. It's supposed to be punishment. Lethal injection is like all other political correctness; a saccharine way to say the same thing or achieve the same end.

And for Cassie: "If a man spill the blood of another man then by man shall his own blood be spilled". - That's in the Bible. Of course, like most "born again" zealots, you are probably very selective in what parts of the Bible you allow to guide your life.

Both good if the person is found guilty of murder or something else as terrible.

the chair is best because you get some of the pain back that you have caused.

I don't believe in lethal punishment, but I also don't believe in luxury accommodations for murderers. Somehow, we should figure a way to put the all on an island together away from everyone else and away from all hope of escape. Feed them K-rations, no TV, no Internet, and no conjugal visits. Give them a few musical instruments and some books.

either one just use it don't talk about it

I'm against the death penalty and consider both forms of punishment inhumane.

I am a firm believer in capital punishment. I think there should be an express lane.

depends what they did but mostly against it


Cassie
I get so upset about both that it is hard to talk about...........both are inhumane and hardly what the risen Christ had in mind when He ushered in a new kingdom of peace...........you tell me where Christians decided one murder is better than another's murder.

I'm okay with the inmate making the choice - as is allowed in some states. If he wants the Electric Chair, then why should we, as society, complain?


crystal_payten
the death penalty is wrong. noone should have the power to determine who should live and who should die but god. how is punishing someone to death for killing someone ok, pretty ironic.huh? if you do your homework there were people convicted and sent to death, and after they were dead found innocent. This is not the early ages when people would be subject to hangings.
