I believe in rehabilitation, but I also believe there are some cases where rehabilitation is a lost cause.

And even when it's a lost cause, I don't support the death penalty, make them stay in prison for the rest of their life if need be.

We're better than this absolute display of retribution.

Personally I feel that forcing someone to live out the rest of their life in a steel and concrete cube with no chance of ever being released is more cruel than executing them but I can see how not everyone would agree with that.

I personally think that the cruelty is outweighed by the possibility of an innocent prisoner getting exonerated.
