The Death Penalty...

I think the death penalty is totally wrong. While the crimes that some people on death row committed were totally harsh and immoral, I believe that their fate should be determined by God  and not by society. What they did was wrong but sooner or later they will get their punishment by God. Also while some people even while knowing they are going to die, still don't have any remorse for the heinous crimes they commited, there are some people who prove to be completely rehabilitated. They realize that they were completely wrong for their actions and want to be forgiven. I believe that giving someone the death penalty is in a way giving them the easy was out. I believe if you really want to punish them, lock them away for life. It will bother them more knowing that they have to be in jail the rest of their lives and they are reminded of the horrible crime they committed everyday. Killing them is not the answer.
