…I think that probably the wider Death Penalty discussion would be for a thread on its own….for me, it doesn’t really work because of the time that is spent on death row also, which can be 20-30 years because of the legal process of appeals etc …but as I say, it’s not a topic that I personally feel that I want to discuss in any depth in this thread…
