>>>I think death sentence is something that have been abused so many times in the past, that we should learn to avoid it, and if we want to be fair, even the worst monster should get the same treatment, as terrible as it could sound. Killing a genocide is getting into his game. I guess life sentence (in a real prison, without any kind of prerrogative) could be even worst than death to a man like him.

>>We are in agreement. Capital punishment is a barbaric practice of the past. That the U.S. still enacts it in 2006 is a stain on our national history that will be remembered right up there, or should I say right down there, with slavery and the treatment of native Americans.

Except when they screw up and kill an innocent person.

Had we still been using capital punishment here in Canada, I can think of at least 3 recent cases of long overdue exoneration where persons would be long dead.

Now, maybe in the U.S. the system is perfect and never makes a mistake, but I'm skeptical.

It is a barbaric practice.

>So how can you compare the two (or with our treatment of the native americans, for that matter)?
