The death penalty refers to the legal killing of a person as punishment for crime. It is widely considered to be inhumane, and is illegal in many parts of the world but not in the United States.

Points
- How can anyone who claims to be "pro-life" support the death penalty? Many apparently do.
- The Death Penalty is about vengeance, revenge, an eye for an eye. While I agree there are some who have no value for human life and cannot be rehabilitated, killing is wrong, no matter who is doing it, including the government.
