I wish we had a way of wiping their brains and making them into zombies and having do hard physical labor for community service for the rest of their natural lives if they are murderers, or child rapeist, or chronic violent offenders. It all depends on the circumstances. I do feel that there are different types of murderers, some are simply on the spur of the moment snap but really heinous violent murders deserve the harshest penalty we can give them. Since we cant make them into zombie slaves then yes I do believe they deserve the death penalty. They contribute nothing to the society they have wronged by living their lives in a place where they dont have to work, get to watch tv and have gyms, 3 meals a day and free health care at our expense.
