Video doesn't work for me.

Video doesn't work for me. But I Googled the title and came across some articles. It's pretty interesting - in fact I wrote an article for my journalism class over the death penalty a couple weeks ago. Smiling Wish I'd known about those execution buses then.

Well, I am against the death

Well, I am against the death penalty on several grounds - It is not practicle (it costs more now) It is unnessiary, but most of all, if society has a death penalty and one innocent person is killed then everyone who supports the death penalty is somewhat at fault

I support the death penalty

I support the death penalty in murder cases (especially serial murderers) and if the evidence used to convict the criminal is strong. Plus it scares off people from killing in the first place.

Congrats! Being proven

Congrats! Laughing out loud

Being proven innocent would be hard in all cases due to the burden of proof - the only (if not, the easiest) way a convicted person could be proven innocent is if someone else is found guilty.
