She wants a deterrent - to send a message to the perps. Too bad the DP isn't a deterrent.

It's definitely a deterrent to the perp who commits the murder for which he was sentenced.

She wants the accused to have no rights. If I'm ever accused, I would like some rights thank you very much.

The only right an accused murderer deserves is the right to a fair trial. Once convicted, he deserves the right to a swift punishment.

How do you feel about Bill O'Reiley's stand on the death penalty? He is against it but not because it is "inhuman and cruel punishment" as those Euro wheiners cry. The reason he is against it is that the punishment is not enough and if I think about it he is right. What do they get? Lethal injection, which means they feel a little prick in their skin if at all and everything is over in a few seconds. He feels life in prison at hard labor would be more effective. Now add to it the death penalty and maybe that would be a deterrent
