Death penalty

  I feel that the death penalty is wrong. Killing another person is the not the right thing to do. If we always have to get back at people then there would be no people left on earth. We have to stop this eye for an eye tooth for a tooth thing. The person is probably going to jail for life so that should be punishment enough. And they say that they use the death penalty to put fear into criminals of the death penalty. But how many criminals would murder in the first place,even in a state where there is no capital punishment,if they thought there was a chance of getting caught? Most murderers feel that they have a fool-proof plan to get away with murder. Unfortunately, most are right.
