After the recent sad news of the Alzheimer's nursing home in North Carolina I am sure a lot of people may debate this just like any other mass shootings. I think in a case like this where there is no doubt who the shooter was they should just go ahead and convict him and schedule his execution date. I am not a violent person, but I do what it's like to be around people who have this disease and there is a special place down south for people who make a dumb decision to take innocent people's lives. Are you for or against the death penalty?

I'm for it, we live in a nation of laws and when you break them you must pay by mans law.

I am suppose to be against it. But there are certain situations where I feel it would be better. When a person is mentally sick, they should get treatment. Get help. If the person is just plan ignorant and likes hurting people, he/she should be executed. Because I think these ignorant people are getting too much from the people paying taxes for them to stay in jail. That is my meaning. Though I know it seems rather hard. Take care.

I'm against it. I rather move forward as a society and not back to the middle ages...
