    The death penalty has never been proven to be a deterrent to crime. Some of the most heinous crimes in Philippine history were committed when we still had the death penalty.

    Also, a leaky justice system will always put doubt on whether the suspect is truly guilty beyond any reasonable doubt.

    Executing one innocent man is executing one innocent man too many and is certainly too high a price to pay.

    Better to have the heinous criminals dead and buried than roaming the streets looking for his next victim. His next victim might be your loved ones. Would you want that on your conscience, that you could have stopped a murder of a loved one but did not do it?

    That's why we need to arm ourselves with guns :gun:in order to protect ourselves and love ones from those criminals.

    These are dangerous times. There are many lawless elements who kill for the thrill for killing. There is no adequate protection for the law abiding citizens. When a lawless person attacks on the streets or particularly in the victim's home, he should assume the risk of losing his life from the act of self-defense by firearm of his victim; otherwise, the law-abiding citizens will be at the mercy of the lawless elements. Hence, the requisite of reasonable necessity of means employed to prevent or repel the unlawful agression should in these times of danger be interpreted liberally in favor of the law-abiding citizens. - copied from the book "The Revised penal Code Book I, 17th Edition (2008) by Luis B. Reyes, pp.183-184, citing people vs. so(citation omitted)"

    Peter Parker learned this the hard way.

    Proponents have always advocated death penalty for heinous crimes (murder, rape, kidnapping).

    But I have yet to see them advocate public executions for corrupt government officials who deserve it more.

    Yan masakit dyan eh. Napaka-biased kasi ng death penalty kaya yung dapat na matakot wala rin. Kapag mayaman kasi hintay lang na yung naka-upo eh kakilala/kaibigan/kamag-anak at pardon na lang.

    Parang kay PDuts ngayon, binawasan P1,000 yung evidence against his frat borthers sa BI, eh di hindi na plunder. Hindi na pasok sa death penalty.

    Greater deterrence as the humiliation will have more dramatic effect, plus it is more cost-effective than electric chair, gas chamber, or lethal injection.

    These days, public humiliation and ridicule has no effect....take Sen. Tito Sotto as Exhibit A. SolGen Calida as Exhibit B.

    Maybe its out of frustration that no actual justice is being served or dispensed....especially if the usual suspects are still enjoying their liberties.
