Tex...I think the death penalty should be ABOLISHED. Texas in the USA is the best proof that it does NOT work. How do YOU explain the LARGE number of executions? Either one executed killer is just replaced by a new one, so it is NOT A DETERRENT AT ALL, or MANY INNOCENT PEOPLE HAVE BEEN EXECUTED. The death penalty is often used for POOR and MINORITY people who CANNOT afford a good defense. Only THREE industrialized democracies (Japan, USA, and South Korea) still have it. KEIKO CHIBA is right that she wants to abolish it, and I hope she will be successful.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
