DEATH ROW--death penalty in America

[username]

I am for the death penalty. It may not deter murders but it guarantees that one won't live to commit another murder. I disagree that life without parole is harsher than death. So many convicts have, TV, internet, and social life in the prison environment. Anyone whose death sentence is bargained down to life should be in solitary for that life sentence.

I understand your points and agree that if the death penalty were to be abolished, those convicted of capital crimes should have the same restrictions as death row prisoners have now.

That. I don't think the death penalty serves as a deterrent. Maybe it provides some closure to some victim families but the costs associated with pursuing a death penalty case? Crazy. However, I agree that their prison time should be hard time. No fluff, no priviliges...nada.
