For what types of murder do you favor the Death Penalty..? (poll, crime)

[miamiworshipper]

Being for or against the DP in general,is wrong...

There are many types of murder & people's attitude varies widely.

So,in my effort to have a fairly accurate portrait of ther public opinion,
I list a few types of murder which may deserve the DP.

U have multiple choice.

Vote as many types as u think they deserve the DP.

i think you forgot your poll, so you might want to try it again.

any type of murder with torture as a component-death penalty-no appeal.

those people have already lost their humanity.

Any type of murder that is not in self-defense should be met with the death penalty.

1st degree no doubters..the Petit case in Connecticut for example.

[miamiworshipper]

I voted for ALL 1st degree murders & then specifically all the other cases...
Have in mind that 1st degree means a mean S.O.B without mitigating ( favouring leniency ) circumstances...
Out of 15 K homicides /year in USA, only some 3K are 1st degree.
So,1st degree means the killer deserves no leniency,clemency,grace,pardon etc.
He enjoyed killing...

My stance is changing on this subject. If it is not in self defense. Forget about it. Way too many murders are being commited today, on the innocent. Are children, our elderly, and inbetween.

Does not really matter, i am getting tired of the babies, small chidlren being murdered, the innocent little souls, taken from us so soon.

Elderly women being brutalized in their own homes, raped, then murdered.

I can no longer accept the brutal killings that we witness almost on a daily basic. Eye for an eye sorry.

If it is not in a self defense situation, murder of someone innocent, someone we love, is murder, i don't care how the murder is committed, it is taking someone innocent from us for no reason.

And loved ones that i know of have been murdered, lets not go there.

I voted for all 1st degree. Life for a life...no other way, as long as the evidence is overwhelming against the defendant.

I would also add "hit and run" killers to those who should receive the death penalty and those who cause multiple loss of life by driving drunk. Add to that, rapists and child molesters who can all be given the death penalty, as far as I'm concerned.

I say that murder is a crime that we should take no chances that the one who did the crime can ever do it again. The state has a right to take the life of any murderer to protect the rest of the people.

An impossible answer, it would depend on the situation of each and every different trial, which is limitless.

Your poll left out Murder Via Abortion.
