Are, instead, the states in which death penalty is used as a form of punishment, functioning in a "peaceful way"?
Another one: are states with death penalty functioning in a *more* "paeceful way" than states without death penalty?
Finally: is death penalty *necessary* for a state to make it "functioning in a peaceful way"?

A hypothetical country - consists of 2 states, one has the death penalty and one doesn't, and criminals can be extradited across states.
Where would the murderers be living ?
Where is the highest probability of homicide/murders likely to be committed.
You open a loophole and the criminal mind will be through before you can blink.
Look what Hitler got away with, until it was too late - the cost was 50 million lives. His was a criminal mind and the world 'appeased' him for too long - an extreme example, but it happens if you let it.
