I think that the death penalty shouldn't really be. People that are trialed and given the death penalty should just be forced to sit in jail and suffer. Killing them is an easy way out and they don't suffer the consequences that they really need to. Having them sit in an area and be in a situation that they do not want to be in they feel the pain more and can really co0me to realize that what they did was wrong and now they need to pay for it. The penitentiary is not a place that anyone wants to be in even for just a little while, so having someone spend the rest of their life in there would be more affective on that person in all forms: physically, mentally, and emotionally. when someone can not have any contact with the outside world all the people they left behind and the good part of life that they were living I think it has a much greater impact and it makes a person really contemplate what they did but before they know it it's too late and there's nothing that they can do about it. saying this I do think that these people should talk to a younger group or people headed down that path to give them their insight and let them see what can come of them and show them that that's not where they want to end up. Before they die naturally I really do think they should be used as an example for others, because some people make actions not knowing what awaits them and don't care about what can happen to them.
