This guy should be executed for murder

That is not the current reality. We spend millions of dollars on executions once court costs and appeals are taken into account

 If it is not your problem when other people are starving to death why would it be your problem if people are murdering each other?

 I mean even if it happens close to your house. Just get a good security system or move to a better neighborhood. 

Stop trying to steal twenty dollars that isn't yours to kill someone who isn't doing anything that is your problem?

So get rid of the court cases and appeals.  Make executions cheaper.

 If it is not your problem when other people are starving to death why would it be your problem if people are murdering each other?

Because I might get murdered.

 I mean even if it happens close to your house. Just get a good security system or move to a better neighborhood. 

Not going to prevent murder.  Murderers don't care about social security systems.

Stop trying to steal twenty dollars that isn't yours to kill someone who isn't doing anything that is your problem?

They might come over here and kill me if they have a history with murder.  I don't want them killing me.

So get rid of the court cases and appeals.  Make executions cheaper.

Ok I'm listening. What nuance would you like to add? What wide reaching effects are being overlooked here? Let's have a look at them.

If you oppose the death penalty, then your fine with murderers living off of taxpayers for their life.

Your point that even more defendants would plead guilty than already do? I think I explained that I don't see that as a net positive.

It would depend on the proportion that are actually guilty vs not. Also, pleas save a lot of court time and money.

I don’t think the rate of false convictions would go down. I think less murderers would avoid jail time since the burden of proof is high for criminal cases 

Do you know how plea bargains work? When you plea guilty, it is getting executions off the table much of the time. Generally you save everyone’s time and take life in prison.

So where on earth are you getting that I want “to just execute everyone”?

And your plan is to let all murderers roam free to kill again! Yay!

There are many other possibilities, please stop projecting your close minded views onto others.

Where for example does your consideration for wrongful convictions come into play? How many innocent lives is an acceptable cost to ensure all murderers are killed by the state?

Not true. Lobbying Congress is expensive. Just ask the petrol industry and big tobacco. 

Again move to a better neighborhood. No one is forcing you to live by a murderer. It's a free country.

Don't steal someone else's twenty dollars just because you are to lazy to move and invest in proper security. 

private prisons have an incentive to oppose the death penalty because they have more prisoners to take care of so they can get more money from the government.

The neighborhood I live in in is pretty good.

The $20 to execute someone is cheaper than the $2 million it takes to feed them for the rest of their lives.

Well that doesn't sound like a good system. Someone should probably change that.

 Still your philosophy seems to suggest that lif you lived next to a murderer that would be your problem not mine and it would be unreasonable to ask me for twenty dollars to fix the problem.

 As things currently stand it us more expensive to execute. 

I'm surprised you said that because private prisons (which the left hates) have an incentive to oppose the death penalty(something the left supports).

We will make more mistakes,

I do not support the left. They support the capitalist state. 

 I do not support the privatization of prisons because it incentivizes incarceration through profit.

Prisons should be incentivized to rehabilitate the guilty and to release the innocent. 

One innocent person executed is one to many... also if we support execution for those who kill innocent people who is got execute the executioner?

The left tends to favor more socialization than the right (like with healthcare), but assuming your a socialist, that's a left wing ideology.

Life in jail will generate more profit for prisons.

Prisons should be fiscally neutral; meaning the labor generated from prisoners should pay for the costs of the prison.  With this being said, prison lengths should be shorter generally.

The executioner had no idea they were innocent; he thought they were guilty like the people who sentenced the prisoner to punishment.  People that are believed to be innocent by the justice system don't get punished.

The murderer on the other hand, killed people that he knew never committed murder.

Most people don't really care about the lives of strangers, this is why they aren't willing to spend $1/day to save a kid in Africa via sponsorship.  If people aren't willing to sacrifice $1/day to save an innocent child in Africa, I don't know why they would be willing to sacrifice $20/day through collective tax money to save some adult that probably committed murder.

That seems like a huge problem that might lead to more innocent people incarcerated. Someone should probably change that. 

Prisoners generating profit at slave wages is a slippery slope

State sanctioned killing is not murder at all. That doesn't make state sanctioned killers innocent.

If I sent a dollar to every starving kid in Africa I would be homeless. The fact that I hold onto my money says nothing about whether I care about innocent lives being killed by the state.
