Opinions on the death penalty?

I agree with the death penalty in principle. In practice, I would only agree with it under the dictatorship of the proletariat because a bourgeois state should not have that amount of power.

I'm all for rehabilitative justice, but if it can be proven beyond any reasonable doubt that you:

  1. intentionally murdered an innocent person
  2. raped someone
  3. molested a child
  4. are a nazi
  5. committed war crimes

then you have forfeited your right to be a part of society and should be removed from it. Imo there is no amount of re-education or rehabilitation that can fix a person who has done any of the aforementioned things.

Thoughts?

  • Fascists and pedophiles do not deserve the right to life.

    • Absolutely. Most people are redeemable. Fascists, rapists and child molesters are NOT. The fact that so many people think otherwise is concerning.
