The Death Penalty

A few days ago Ms. James blogged about the death sentence and what it would be like to live knowing that you are soon going to die. Honestly i dont think the death penalty is right it some cases. I do believe some people do deserve it. In order for it to be right I think the court should absulutely positive in everyway that that person indeed did kill many people. In some states they use the death penalty in too many ways. The link that Ms. James provided was actually kind of an eye opener. I wonder how it would feel to be wrongly convicted or have a family member that was later found non guilty but yet had already been killed for that crime. It would be horrible to be locked in a cell not being able to see all your family or friends before you die. I see it in both ways. I also feel that they deserve to be that way because they did commit a horrible crime. What if you knew that you didnt do it? You could say all you want to say but no one would ever believe you. Just in the last year Tookie Williams went through the lethal injection. He was on death row for all of the crimes he commited earlier in his life when he was the leader of the crips. Ever since he has been locked up though he wrote many books and had programs to keep kids out of gang violence. He even won a Noble Peice Prize. I think that he should be locked up for life but not put on death row. I found this writing of an Alabama inmate on death row. So what do you think of the death penalty?
