Our Opinions on the Death Penalty

When my group members and I first started talking about the death penalty we all agreed that it should stay legal. We thought the people who committed huge crimes, such as, murders, should be killed, also. Now that we have researched more information about the topic and saw some interesting facts about the topic and saw some interesting facts and other peoples perspectives on the topic... we don't believe in it anymore. There has been way too many innocent people executed. It costs more to execute them instead of just letting them sit in prison the rest of their lives. We believe that putting them through the death penalty is just an easy way out. We think it is more of a punishment to sit in prison the rest of their lives, suffer, and be haunted by the crimes they have committed.
