The Case of Troy Davis
#34
Hi,

Quote:So what you're saying is when such decisions are no longer made by human beings?:lol:
That might have to be the case. Someday we might have a chronoscope that lets us see into the recent past. Then guilt will be determined without question. I'll push that plunger, flip that switch, or pull that lever myself. And sleep like a baby. But 'what if' can keep me awake.

As I said, I had a much higher opinion of the police and judicial system before the evidence piled up. Lock them up for life, and you can at least partially recover from mistakes. Plus, the way we do it, it would probably be cheaper. And, in many cases, killing them fast may be too kind.

So, right now, I see no real upside to the death penalty.
