@DeepSixed300 It depends on your motivation for killing. If you want revenge, if you have little or no sense of humanity, if you believe in an eye for an eye then the death penalty is for you. DNA is not definitive and in trials they give the probablity that it doesn't match the person. The evidence that the death penalty doesn't work is there is no correlation between those nations that have it and their violent crime rate. It plainly has zero affect on crime.

@millertas Your argument is irrelevant to your central argument: what is your evidence for the death penalty failing to work? Yes, indeed: DNA is in its infancy. But those that analysed it understood those possibilities far better than you do, I would imagine. Unless of course that is an assumption too far?

@DeepSixed300 Let a hundred guilty men go free so that one innocent man is not wrongly convicted. That is one of the basis of our (British, Australian, etc.) justice system. You have to come up one hundred examples before I come up with one. Oh by the way, DNA is not a definitive science and it does deteriorate.

@millertas It cuts both ways. James Hanratty in the UK? Hanged in 1962 amidst protest from "the great and the good". Fashionable opinion in the decades after maintained that it was a miscarriage of justice and yet, in 2002, when the family lobbied for a pardon, the DNA evidence was re-examined using modern technology. The result? He had been guilty the entire time. The death penalty is not a debate that can be won outright; it is a matter of opinion.

Beautiful, thanks!!!!!
@vemund1144 No I am not "dyumb". The justice system is about PREVENTION not punishment. Let me tell of one "Baby" Killer. Lindy Chamberlian who in 1980 killed her new born in her car then blaimed a dingo (Australian Native Dog). Later it was revealed that she was right. If you don't think that the justice system can get it wrong you've got rocks in your head. The Death Penalty just does not work.

@vemund1144 So you justify murder. Criminals that kill justify their actions in the same way. You can also argue that rape, assault, child abuse, etc. are all "human nature". Interesting.
