I don't like to talk about controversial topics (like death penalty), but that don't mean I don't have an opinion about it, I just don't like to express it.
As far as I am concerned, death penalty is not a punishment at all because the condemned person is released of all guilty in the moment he or she is executed.
Some people agree with my opinion but they give humanitarian and religious arguments. I just think that there are better ways to punish a criminal like life sentence, in which case the convict will be paying for his crime until his death and he won't be able to commit another crime again.
In addition, some countries which still contemplate the death penalty abuse of it. For instance, in 2007, in North Korea, an important business man was executed in a stadium in front of 120.000 people on charge of making phone calls abroad, which, if you ask me is just an exaggeration.
To sum up, I'm convinced that the solution is the implementation of a really efficient penal system which guarantees the serve of the penalties. Actually it doesn't happen and that' why some countries still believe in death penalty as a solution.

Agreed.
Death Penalty is, without a doubt, not a punishment, but some kind of a relief for the criminal. It doesn't solve anything, but works well to keep some people happy (who doesn't love revenge?), that's why it's still used in some countries.
Besides, knowing how justice works here in Chile, i'm possitive we'll end up killing more innocents that real murderers.
