What do you think of death sentences? To many ppl, death by hanging, electric chair, shooting etc is a little barbaric. So they jail their worst convicts for life.
I suppose (if you've seen enough chinese shows) the phrase "long pain is worse off than short pain" rings true. imagine sitting in a small cell, your life passing you by slowly.. day by day, hour by hour, min by min... with no apparent end in sight. instead, if you are given a death sentence, there's an obvious end that you can "look forward" to. Secondly, less taxpayers' $$ is used to keep them alive and well in prison.
Italian inmates have petitioned to be given the death sentence. Some after so many years in prison, have earned degrees, and repented but they are not allowed back into society anyway...
Such a bleak topic... but i guess i'd prefer the death sentence too. and i'd go willingly too. lessen my pain. lessen others' responsibilities.
