Ok, yes I support the death penality… but what crimes I believe should require it? Here is my list.
- First Degree Murder – Obviously if you set out to kill someone, be it in a crime in itself or during the process of committing another crime, once it not proven to be accidential or in self defence, that person should be terminated.
- Kidnapping – The taking of another person against their will for any illigal reason (ransom, etc) is grounds for the kidnapper to be terminated.
- Terrorism – If they plan on doing something which cause mass fear, deaths or any other action, they should be terminated.
- Human Trafficing – About 900,000 people are trafficed across international borders every year, excuding those trafficed internally within a country. It is one of the most overlooked crimes globally. Those who should be execuited should be anyone involved in the business. It is a very sad state of affairs that such crimes as this even exists.
Well that is my short list…. there are other crimes that should be included but I can’t think of any more right now. I do not believe that politicial crimes and most crimes against the state warrent the death penality, most can be handled with imprisionment.
No doubt a longer more detailed list needs to be done…. and maybe I do it sometime…
But that my opinion.
