One of the biggest problems in America today is the number of people still on death row. There are too many people that are sitting there today that were convicted many years ago. These people should be put to death as soon as possible because these murderers are there on American citizen’s tax dollars.
I am a believer in the death penalty. I do believe, however, that a person that is sentenced to death should have DNA evidence and at least two witnesses in the case against them. I know that there were many people in the past that were wrongfully executed and now people shy away from the death penalty, but today this possibility is no longer a factor because, for the death penalty to be issued, there must be DNA evidence in the case. People say that killing a murderer is just double murder, but I see it as just punishment. I believe that the US Government should execute the prisoners as soon as possible after their trial, or completely get rid of death row altogether.
Many people also say that a believer in the death penalty can’t also believe that abortion is wrong. I say bull hock. One is killing of a murderer as just punishment, the other is murder of the innocent.
