Well, if some of you were to do some research... you'll discover that at least a hundred innocent people were released from the death penalty over the last 30 years.

Not only that, there has been around 2 dozen people that were discovered to be innocent after they were executed. Though there are some reports that says it's much more than that, at least a few dozens. Bullshit (Showtime series) covered the subject once and it was quite enlightening.

The concept of death penalty is not justice in my opinion. We aren't the one to play God with people's lives.

I don't believe there's a way of applying it correctly. These people should be punished for the rest of their lives, not to kill them. Killing them isn't going to change anything.
