And I think death would be more a release than a punishment.

If I were to be able to choose life in prison and the death penalty, I'd go for the death penalty because like you said...its a release from the torment. I would not call living my life behind bars a life, always wondering if I were going to get beat up, get sick and suffer, bored out of my skull at doing nothing all day long...yeah...give me the fast way out of that.


You know...I have been known in the past to say "give them death", but once I began placing myself in their shoes...and thinking about it a bit more, I am inclined to say that the death penalty is probably not a good idea. For one, its more expensive to us for the lawyers and the clemancy hearings, and the appeals after appeals...I think its cheaper to just let a guy live for 50 years with nothing to eat but very bland, cold food and see how many boyfriends he can make.
