Do you support the death penalty?

Yes, but only for low-functioning psychopaths

Forced labor and psychological torture should be a punishment instead of death penalty.

Yes, if the defendant prefers it over life in prison

Only for cases of paedophilia

Yes if fair trial can is guaranteed

Execute rapists, any unprovoked murders, anything gruesome against animals, and anything against the weak.

Bring back public hangings for those who committed horrific or any type of sexual crime.

How do the cultural or legal precedents in your community shape your views on the death penalty, if at all?

Yes, bring back public executions for rapists, unprovoked murderers, and anyone who has harmed the weak.

How would you feel if someone close to you was given a death sentence for a crime they may or may not have committed?

What are your thoughts on taking a life as retribution for a crime, and can it ever be justified in your eyes?

Should the potential for wrongful convictions affect our stance on the death penalty, and why?

Are there circumstances where you believe the death penalty could be a deterrent to prevent serious crimes, or do you think it has no effect on crime rates?

How do you reconcile the finality of the death penalty with the possibility of rehabilitation or change in a person?

If you were in a position to decide, would you seek to implement the death penalty as a part of your justice system, and what would guide your decision?

Can you imagine a crime so heinous that you believe a death penalty would be the rightful punishment, or do you think a different form of justice would be more appropriate?

How might the existence or absence of the death penalty impact the way society views the value of human life?

Yes, bring back public executions for those who have raped, done anything gruesome to an animal, or those who have murdered anyone for no reason.

Yes, for those sentenced to life in prison as well as for those sentenced to death, but in both cases, only when further appeal is impossible or not desired.

Yes, bring back public executions for rapists, unprovoked murderers, and anything against animals.

No, life without parole does the same thing at 1/3 of the costs.

No, life in solitary confinement would be a far better deterrent

No, automatic appeals make it significantly more expensive than a life sentence.

Allow public executions for rapists, unprovoked murders, and anything against animals. Chemically castrate those who have done anything sexual against others if the family of the victim does not want them executed.

Public executions for rapists, unprovoked murders, anything sexual and anything against animals.

No, but I support it in theory

Only for gruesome murders with a lot of evidence. Also, we should swiftly shoot pedophiles and rapists in the heads.

I don’t agree with the government executing people. I want the feds to arrest the person and then the family of the victim should choose what to do.

Bring back public executions

Execute pedophiles, rapists, and murderers.

Execute rapists, pedophiles, and murderers.

Only in cases of treason against the constitution of the United States of America by particularly dangerous traitors. Also foreign war criminals should be executable.

I do not like the feeling that the state has the power to execute anyone but I believe unjustified murderers, rapists, pedophiles and those who commit crimes against animals should be publicly executed.

I do not like the feeling that the state has the power to execute anyone but I believe unjustified murders, rapists, pedophiles and those who commit crimes against animals should be publicly executed.

Bring back public executions for pedos, rapists, and un provoked murders.

Yes; kill pedos, rapists, and unjustified murders.

Public executions for rapists, pedophiles, and for unjustified murderers.

Bring back public executions for pedos, rapists, and un necessary murders.

Hang pedos, unjustified murders, rapists, and those who attack animals.

Yes, and we should replace all life sentences with the death penalty

Public executions for pedophiles, unjustified homicides, rape, and crimes against animals or those in a weak state. Chemically castrate those who have done sexual crimes.

Public executions for pedos, rapists, anything sexually forced, unprovoked murders, and anything cruel against animals.

I do not like the idea that the state can kill someone but I do believe that anyone convicted of unprovoked murder, anything sexual towards anyone, and anything harmful to an animal without a doubt should be publicly executed.

Bring back public executions but only for those who have done anything sexual in nature, anything against animals and for those who have murdered for no reason. The state should not conduct the executions it should be up to the victims family.

Yes, but there should be a DNA test first and a family decision second :)

Bring back public executions for pedos, unprovoked murderers, any type of sexual assault and anything against animals.

Yes, but only if the prisoner is too dangerous to keep in prison

We need to build a city, preferably in Wyoming or anywhere unpopulated, doesn't really matter, that has all the criminals sent there. 20 Lane highways should be built to LA and NYC to transport criminals. Also a 20 runway airport to transport them.

Yes. Bring back public executions for those who have raped, murdered unprovoked, anything against animals, and anything against the weak.

Yes, but only for the crimes of treason, sedition, espionage, murder, rape, and kidnapping of a minor when it is carried out by way of lethal injection, hanging, firing squad, or gas chamber

Yes, bring back public executions for rapists, any unprovoked murder, anything against animals, and other heinous crimes with absolute evidence.

Sort of. I do not like how the government can execute someone but I do believe that public executions should be brought back. Anyone who has harmed an animal, unprovoked murder, or have raped someone should be publicly hung or shot in the head.

No, this is state sanctioned murder and is not a very effective tool at eliminating violent crime.

Yes, But only with crimes against children, and people with vulnerabilities.

No, the death penalty is to costly

Yes, but only for horrific crimes with undeniable evidence And mandate it nationwide.

Abolish life sentences and replace them with the death penalty.

Yes and mandate it nationwide

I believe it should all depend on the person and situation.

Yes, but only for convicts who committed murder while incarcerated.

Yes, but only for inmates who committed murder while incarcerated.

Yes, but only for inmates who commit murder while incarcerated.

Yes, but only as a last resort, where life imprisonment shall also be an alternative

Yes, but only as a last resort, where life imprisonment shall also be an alternative (life for those who were 21 years or older at the time of the crime, 50 years for those under 21 years)

I think it depends on what the person have done. Sometimes they deserve a second chance.

Yes, but only for horrific crimes with undeniable evidence, because too many people are innocently convicted. Plus, I think that spending life in prison is a harsher sentence because the dead don't suffer unless their soul was sent to hell that is.

Only if there is objective evidence that it is the ONLY way to stop the person from committing a violent crime.

Yes, but an alternative of using these convicts for science experiments to advance technology and medicine would do a better service to the community, nation, and world

No, Exodus 20:13 "You shall not kill"

Yes, but only with euthanasia that kills instantly.

Yes but in practice it is too costly - at least in California.

No, too many people are innocently convicted - even though in theory I would say yes for horrific crimes with undeniable evidence, I do not trust the government to execute this sufficiently

No, the death penalty is state-sponsored murder, and is therefore immoral

Yes, but improve it to go faster and ensure no innocent person is killed.

No, it is no longer necessary with modern technology

Yes, but only if the alternative is life without parole.

No because the death penalty costs way more than life without parole.

Yes, but only for white-collar crimes

Yes, but only for certain white-collar crimes

No, if the death pentality is for extreme cases of murder then murdering said criminals should count thus rendering the process useless.

Yes, but only when the criminal is unrehabilitatable

Yes, but only for cases involving murder

too many people are innocently convicted

Yes, we cannot risk the escape of convicted murderers or sex offenders

State issue, not Federal.

No, it's expensive, authoritarian, and doesn't offer much value

No, but the decision should belong to the states.

Yes, only for sex crimes and school shooters

No, as appeals cases are tiresome to the court systems and end up costing more money to tax payers

No, as appeals cases are tiresome the court systems and end up costing more money to tax payers

no. end the death penalty for murder and other crimes but allow it in the case of war crimes, attempted genocide, and extreme terrorist attacks, like 9/11.

at this moment I don;t know.

No, nearly four percent of people sentenced to death are innocent. The injections used in administrating the death penalty were also not developed by doctors, as it would violate a doctor's oath to do no harm. This results in a painful process with one step solely for the benefit of the onlooker. It's also cheaper to sentence someone to a life in prison. I also just think that it's wrong.

People who commit harsh and terribly horrific crimes with undeniable evidence might deserve the death penalty. I also agree that spending life in prison and dealing with the hardships of prison is the harsher sentence.

No, as I feel the death penalty only does more harm. However, I feel those who qualify for the death penalty, should receive punishments that their crimes deserve.

Yes however the victims family or families should be able to request the legally and fairly convicted person be put through the crimes they committed or sentenced to life in prison without parole.

This depends. Case by case basis. In the instance of Nancy Pelosi, Bill Gates and George Soros - YES!

Yes, but as an optional alternative to life without parole
