vigalante justice will just lead to more violence

the proper authorities should handle the situation, not citizens with a bone to pick

It was it irony, in case you did not get it. Just quoting gun lobbyists rhetoric.

Life in prison without parole is worse than the death sentence imo, especially if they put him in solitary confinement. Like seriously imagine being locked in a room almost 24/7 and literally having no one to talk to for the rest of your life, that's way worse than dying, after a while you'd go insane.

Also there is a video that he posted of him saying that he's going to keep killing until he gets caught. Seriously fuck this guy. I'm so pissed after watching the video, like dude holy fuck what the hell is wrong with you...

Edit: Interview with the victims family
This just made me even more mad... The amount of pain they are going through is unreal all because this fucking piece of shit wanted to prove a point or something to his ex.They couldn't even do the interview for more than a minute before breaking down too hard.

And I love how he blames everyone for what he's doing "omg if my girlfriend answered my calls this wouldn't of happened" "it's my moms fault for creating me >:(", this dude is a delusional sociopath.

Also apparently this guy has stolen chips from a blind guy just a bit ago. He's so fucked in the head holy shit

how ironic

You both are talking about 2 different things.

Vigilante Justice is someone actively going out of their way to serve their own form of justice.

A "good guy with a gun" is typically someone with a concealed carry permit who would only use his weapon to defend himself or others from harm if it happens.
Here is an example and this is vastly different than saying the guy with the gun "had a bone to pick".

They found him. Self inflicted gunshot to the head
Best result possible

rotting away in solitary confinement would've been better but this is a good runner-up

I don't enjoy paying more taxes for scum bags like this guy to go to jail. That means I have to feed and clothe him for the next 40+ years of his life. I understand where you are coming from but for me, 1 bullet is far cheaper.

i agree with you, but at the same time, suicide is too good of a treatment for someone like that

it's people like him that make me believe in a death penalty

I think satisfying the need for revenge is really unhealthy. As long as there is no more danger it's fine.

edit : scooped

.

I don't agree with torturing people because they're bad

death penalty doesn't exactly mean torture

also the death penalty would circumvent much prison overcrowding and lifers on death-row that has grown to be a problem in the united states

at the same time the death penalty strips people of their lives and leaves them with absolutely 0 chance for redemption

if someone is a lifer on death row then i doubt they're asking for redemption

Redemption is the wrong word, death penalty leaves no opportunity for rehabilitation which is what the justice system is meant for.

my point still stands: there's people on death row who have done shit like raped children or murdered entire families, those people aren't expecting redemption or rehabilitation

all they're doing is wasting tax dollars because the justice system wants to keep monsters like that alive

people are wrongly convicted all the time. at least if they're put in prison for life there's an opportunity for repayment. if ur dead, ur dead.

the death penalty's also more expensive than life. sounds weird but apparently true

also the death penalty isn't a deterrent to crime

no one here said the death penalty was a deterrent to crime

also if a death row inmate isn't actively seeking a re-trial and has simply accepted his or her fate that they will be executed, then why spend money on keeping them alive for 10-20 years while they await death?

I don't think all the criminals are able to rehabilitate.

I both understand why they do the death penalty the other ways they do but also see the savings possible with literally a single .22 at 10 cents each. And of course you have to watch out as sometimes other people may not need to die necessarily.

Life is complicated.

so if some arent we shouldnt do it at all??

It's not like every single criminal is charged with death penalty...
