My No to death penalty:
- Too many wrong sentences that cannot be corrected.
- No deterring effect
- Irrelevance regarding crimes of passion
- "Death" as a penalty is a self-contradicting, illogical concept. To suffer a penalty, either in the meaning of "revenge" or "behavior alteration by aversive stimuli", the subject must live.

- Death as a preemptive measurement to prevent somebody from commiting future ongoing most serious crimes, projecting severe criminal influence, or becoming the motive of serious crimes of others, is something different. Examples: drug barons, mafia bosses, weapon traders, major pimps and slave traders.

Has been discussed before, several times.
