I think gang members and the rest of these sub-human garbage should do very long stretches, like 150 years or so

Why stop at 150 years. Why not make it 1,000 years. That is so rediculous. Do you know of any criminal that has actually served 100 years much less 150 years?

How do you know in the future that the SC won't determine that extremely long stretches are cruel and inhumane and let people out after 20 or so?

As it is there is n consistencey and some get out in 6 years after murdering innocent people. The whole point behind the death penalty is to remove these dangerous people from society so that the rest of us can live civilized lives.

It is cruel and inhumane to expect loved ones to have to support, feed and clothe those that have murdered their loved ones for the rest of the criminals life.

Not to mention that it is not right to expect society to care for them. The funds could be better used to help the victim's families. God instituted the death penalty.

Such absurd sentences are given today and with very good reason and purpose. The purpose of a sentence of 150 years is to work around the parole set-ups that make people eligible for parole after as little as a third of their sentence has been served. In the words of a judge who gave a sentence of 1500 years to a con who said, "judge, I can't do 1500 years" The Judge said, "Just do what you can, son".

A death sentence for a minor is simply wrong. A true life sentence is not. That's just the way I think it is. If a life sentence really means "life" then society is protected.
