Death Penalty Mug

Death penalty is a punishment for criminals. But is it really ? A punishment is not supposed to be definitive. But don't misundertand. Murderers of any kinds must be stopped. Problem is, who ever said we could take a life ? The criminal took one (or more) while he was not allowed to. But we are not allowed to either. We can't hope for respect if we ourselves don't apply it. Even if the criminal killed someone, we don't have any right to take his life. Not that he does not deserve it : he does. But let's be logical. Is it usefull to tell a child not to smoke while he sees you smoke everyday ? I don't think so. It is useless and dumb to kill someone because he's killed someone. Of course, this one killer won't do it again : but others will. Moreover, to die is too easy. A murderer who has raped children and killed them has to live for the rest of his life thinking about it, regreting it. If he dies, it's quickly over. If it was only me, I would torture them (physically or psychologically) every single day until they ask for suicide because of too much remorse. Only then, they can die. They have to earn their death. So for the criminals, I would rather choose perpetuity over death penalty. Or death penalty but more sadist than just an easy death. The problem is that nowadays, perpetuity costs a lot of money because criminals clearly live well in prison. This is not even jail anymore. Prisons must become prisons again. And then, death penalty would not have to exist anymore.
