| No. One wrong conviction and the whole system is brought into disrepute. Time and time again the authorities have been shown to:
Not be trustworthy
Fabricate evidence
Get it wrong.
Bang up 'em up for life (meaning for the rest of their natural days) and make them work to pay for the pivilige of guaranteed accomodation, food and welfare. Execution is state-licensed murder/revenge. It can be abused. It is not justice. |
