Funny how a number of the same people who are against the death penalty are also the ones who go on and on about un-employment rates and defacit in this country. When a convicted murderer is sentenced to life in prison, we as tax payers go in for the long-haul to pay their future exorbitant medical expenses. Registered nurses and psychiatrists are on call for all of these prisoners. If a prisoner developes major physical problems, then nurses will actually be on-staff to care for them. We must also pay for all of the medication required by such prisoners. The fact of the matter is that our penitentiary system is both overcrowded and over budget. Why keep serial murderers and rapists alive to violate society even further?
Hmm, didn't expect a female to be so brutal...

I suppose we could execute all the murderers, but are rapists on the same level? What if we found that some people genetically disposed to crime, should they die for that too?

Harness the power of Ingsoc, then you can capture someone killed the year before
