Heated discussion again?
This deals with the death penalty.
You have to love quotes like this: "They had to execute him twice," Mark Elliot said. "If Floridians could witness the pain and the agony of the executed man's family, they would end the death penalty."
Frankly, I could give a rats ass about his family. What about the victimes family?? Nobody brings that up do they? However, nobody even talks about how this man MURDERED someone previously. Gotta love it.
Discuss your opinion both pro/con.

Some people just deserve to die for the crimes they commit, they are unsafe to be around law abiding citizens, maybe there is a chance they can turn their lives around, but seriously, I'd rather not take that chance

Execution costs as much and sometimes more than life in prison.
Yeah, let them suffer. The constitution shouldn't apply whenever we feel like being petty and vengeful. The court of public opinion is so much more important than the court of law, after all.

And the reasons why executions cost more is due to the APPEAL process that takes years and years and years of taxpayers money. We all know damn right it cost way more to keep someone ALIVE for 60 years than it is to kill them off in 5.
