He has probably more optimism on us than you have in yourself. If he'd be the first to die he would because society is shit not because he is. He'd not be alive to think about that but the rest living people would and reflect.
I got so upset when they brought up that that mother who killed her husband for what he did to their daughter should have just had trust in the legal system, do you understand how many people who had trust in the legal system for assault and how many got the bare minimum or nothing?
@@rielhsliso8363 I think she should get the death penalty for taking matters into her own hands if the legal system is actually doing their job and is to be trusted in serving justice. So considering how many predators get away with only the bare minimum if anything, her actions Don't deserve the death penalty. Though I do think she should serve time in jail.
I looked at that a little different. Those 2 guys he hugged were the ones that said their mothers shouldnt be exempt of the death penalty. The Afro Dude came at them afterwards saying he was shocked and that was the problem with society. Then at the end, he hugged them both and said "How is your mother?". I personally think the guy was being passive aggressive and was essentially backhanding them in the guise of a hug.
1.) Private school vs. public school (teachers, parents, or a mix on both sides) 2.) Homeschool vs. public school (“alumni” or teachers) 3.) Religion vs. LGBT+ (a mix of religions)
I feel like religious people and lgbt people aren’t always on “opposing ends” of the spectrum, so I’m not sure how they could make a video in this format about that
Yes that’s why they are executed. To put an end to their heinous crimes. I believe our justice system needs work and the death penalty can’t be thrown around. Innocent people of course should not be executed and there needs to be a way to fix that. But I believe the death penalty is reserved for those who have committed horrible acts of terror and who have the complete disregard for human life. Ted Bundy escaped from prison twice and each time he escaped, he raped and murdered more women. That’s why the death penalty exists and that’s why he was executed. People who can’t play by the rules regarding human life must not be allowed to live amongst us
@@kieranmooney3453 and there are many people who have been wrongly executed. I’ll never be ok with killing innocents. Especially when the justice system is so incompetent. There will never be a world where there are no wrongful convictions. But I do understand where you are coming from.
@@fairyonice9504 I’m with you! We need to stop the execution of innocent people. Definitely needs reform. They need to be 100% sure someone did the crime before they toss the death penalty around.
I would be for the death penalty if there was a definite way to prove people on death row as guilty. A study came out that showed 4% of them were innocent, that’s overwhelming to me.
That study includes people that were convicted decades ago. Show me the study of people that were convicted recently. You know. Now that we have DNA evidence. That’s the only reason we even know about that 4%. Which means it’s nowhere near 4% today. Now, it takes a lot to be put to death. And we already have like 20 years worth of appeals before they die.
Only one problem with the study... how tf do you calculate that? Detectives are detectives for a reason. I doubt a random scientist could do detective work better. There are some cases where it's clear that the wrong person was executed but that's a small number. The other 95%+ is unknown
@@anonymousperson3023 What a smart idea. Im sure the researchers didnt know about that. im guessing you think the person who did the research pulled the numbers out of their ass, huh?
The death penalty would only work if people who were on death row were 100% guilty. But our world isn’t perfect, and people do get falsely incriminated all the time.
@@Niiju Oh really? What kind of proof? If you're talking about eye witnesses, it's been proven that people can be mislead and coerced into give false witness testimony. DNA evidence? Cross contamination is a thing. Video? Deep fakes. The truth is you can never really be sure who killed a person unless they confess to it or if they are caught in the act. Nothing in the world is 100 percent reliable and innocent people have been executed before.

@@hananna1825 I might be wrong, but from what I understand, keeping a person in death row is far more expensive per year, but once they're dead they stop being a cost to the state, while the life-imprisoned inmate will continue costing the state their entire life.
@@sebastiano728 usually the court cases that are needed in which to push through a death penalty are really expensive. I think inmate cost per year works out to be quite cheap (in the USA). AmnestyUSA breaks it down well.
@@hananna1825 this is where you live in a bad paradox. Anti-death penalty people argue we would need to know for sure they did it, yet say it would cost too much than to just give them life. We should not throw away an idea just because the system it is under is flawed.

The only reason im anti death penalty is because it sort of feels like they get off the hook in a way. You could either make a horrible person suffer for the rest of their life to pay for their crimes or just end their life quickly
In my opinion, the only thing worse than death is torture. Most people deserving of the death penalty are already past the point of remorse, so making them think about their crimes won't do anything. Bottom line for me is, at least they get to live. Their victims don't.
Wtf with that 4 year old comment? You’re trying to equate the actions of a 4 year old breaking an object to a grown adult murdering/torturing/raping etc.
It’s a example for people to express their foundation of morality. Is it better to punish or to bring understanding? Should you do both? I will say that it’s a bad example in a wildly different context, but it opens up a discussion in morality and it’s intrinsic lack of actual tangibility outside of our human perception. What she did, however, was kinda like bringing up a simple addition problem in a discussion about theoretical mathematics. Idk 🤷♀️
@Chirag Patel I dont know about that, you can really mean that everyone deserves a second chance. That means something drastically different philosophically from some people deserve a second chance and nobody deserves a second chance.
Later on a statement said "Anyone can forgive anyone given enough time" so the same guy came up and when he was asked if he could forgive someone who murdered his mother he said "no".
Statistically, increasing the severity of the punishment up to the death penalty has VERY little effect on crime rates. People don't commit crimes with the expectation of getting caught. Pickpocketing used to have a sentence of hanging. And other pickpockets would go to the crowds of people watching someone get hanged for picking pockets, and pick their pockets. Lots of people were gathered in a small area, lots of bumping into each other and everyone was distracted. Easy opportunity to pick pockets. Didn't matter what the punishment was. If you want to reduce crime, you need to convince people that getting caught is LIKELY, not that is carries great sentences.
@@slayer2608 Saudia Arabia has crime. It's on the low side, but you can't assume that's because of harsh sentencing. Norway's Crime rate is significantly lower than Saudi Arabia's and capital punishment was abolished decades ago. Chechnya's crime rate may be lower than elsewhere in Russia but it's crime rate is growing faster than almost anywhere else in Russia. So, again, a better example is needed.
His mentalety is a great thing to have and if everyone would be like that, the world would be all sunshine and rainbows. But unfortunately that's not the case, people do horrible things and honestly i think he is just too soft. My opinion is an eye for an eye and not everyone deserves a second change.
@@rens3286 An eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind. If someone does something it's just going to cause a chain reaction of someone else going to go get back at that person. I don't disagree with the death penalty personally, but we really should put more consideration into the circumstances of what happened and why it happened. Some people are just cold blooded killers, some people however commit a murder once (I say murder because it's still a murder no matter the circumstances), and would never do it again. Say for instance the woman that set the man on fire for what happened to her daughter. I don't think she should get the death penalty. Life in prison? Maybe. Life in prison with a CHANCE to eventually go free on a supervised parole? Absolutely. I also think however she should have gone to the cops and that the guy deserved to go through the due process of the law. I feel like he should have got the death penalty, but that's up to the courts. Two wrongs don't make a right but my whole point in stating this is there are most of the time circumstances where bad stuff happens to family or children and during a fit of rage someone acts out. I think the death penalty should be a last ditch effort or saved for the most heinous crimes. I'm a bigger fan of life in prison for most of the people. But someone that say murders an entire family in my opinion does deserve the death penalty.
Official Barack Hussein Obama II his argument is not derived from a delusional stand point of everyone being a good person, but more so the rehabilitation for criminals and opportunities. There’s a very thin line between punishment and rehabilitation in this country. The Probations and parole systems are terrible considering the fact that most of them don’t care about you. Most parole officers see between 100-150 people a week! Imagine that and on top of that, paper work for each person in a 40 hour week schedule...It’s a very interesting way in how The system operates. Statistically speaking most people that go to jail are very likely to just end up right back in because of the lack of resource and crappy rehab system. I love that guy’s optimism, and don’t confuse optimism with delusion, a lot of people have that huge misconception :)
Forget his opinions for a second on these topics, but the guy with the Afro is incredibly friendly. Just like a breath of fresh air to see because these days there’s so many that have this negative energy about them, he’s the opposite to that.

The whole 4 year old breaking a vase scenario is a horrible logical fallacy and a grossly disproportionate comparison to people who’ve murdered and raped people. It just seems out of place and not worth arguing over in this particular debate.
No, the girl is California if California was a person. She was so irritating and crazed from the beginning. The guy is more of a Washington if the state was a person.
It would literally just be "climate change doesn't exist" "but science" "but there's snow outside" "BUT INTERNATIONAL DATA AND RESEARCH" "I HAVE TO WEAR A COAT THEREFORE GLOBAL WARMING IS A GOVERNMENT CONSPIRACY" Trump literally said that because winter was still cold, then climate change didn't exist.

Props to the people on this series that never raise their voice. I don't even care if I agree with your stance, I'll respect you a lot more for being decent.
Honestly, that situation is amazing, because it exposes hypocritical thinking on either side. Just suppose that a guy killed a victim, and then the girl killed the guy. Should the girl be killed? PRO DEATH PENALTY: The woman should be killed, but this suggests that the guy shouldn't have been killed which is inconsistent with these ideals. ANTI-DEATH PENALTY: The woman shouldn't be killed, but then this suggests that the guy should have been killed which is inconsistent with these ideals. My thoughts on this are shaky and not as concrete as they should be (as this is a new concept for me), but I just needed to write this down to help me think about it a bit more.
@Willy Wonka well, it’s only hypocritical thinking if you assume that the reasoning for wanting the death penalty or not is based solely on the moral stance one takes on the woman’s actions. So, for example, the pro-death penalty one. You say it exposes hypocrisy on the pro-death penalty side if they want the woman to be executed because it suggests that what the woman did (killing her husband) was wrong, which is hypocritical since they believe in the government killing people who commit crimes. But, someone who is pro death penalty might tell you that they don’t necessarily believe that the outcome of the husband dying is wrong, and on a personal level they might even agree that it was global justice. But they would say that it’s wrong and bad for society that the _wife_ is the one that killed him and broke the law in doing so. They’re argument would be on a legal basis, centering around deterrence, and not on whether they personally support what she did on an emotional level.
@@kk8490 Thank you for your response as it helps me when thinking about this topic. However, basing a decision solely on legality is basing the decision on what someone else has decided because what is legal has been decided by someone else. Therefore, the person who made the laws the way they are was basing it off of what they think morally and therefore is hypocritical.
@Willy Wonka true, it is basically kicking the ball down the road, but I suppose most things are like that. The government punished people who kidnap people by kidnapping them and throwing them in a jail cell, stealing is wrong but the state can and does forcibly take money from you come tax season. A lot of government action can come across as hypocritical, but they can do things citizens can’t because as a society we vest power to our governments and allow them to have a monopoly on these actions. I think that’s called the social contract but I’m not 100% sure. A pro death penalty person would just argue to extend it to include state sanctioned execution. But I agree it’s a weak argument, and I find most pro death penalty arguments unpersuasive. I’m really glad I live in a country that doesn’t have it lol.
I loved this middle ground discussion. There was no power dynamics, everyone got the chance to speak about their views and even though, they might've not agreed with the other side, they respected their opinions. I watched this one after the rich vs poor and men's rights activists one, and what an absolute joy it was to watch these people argue in a civilised manner unlike the above mentioned videos
@@mortuc1 No she was asking if that kid deserved a punishment, not the death penalty But she was basically asking whether they would spank the kid or talk to the kid (not literally)
@@Coldfront15 You do realize that in context the example means whether to give someone the death penalty or not right? I agree but in this situation you can't have both

That one dude: "Yeah my mother should be put on death row if she commits a heinous act" His mom: 👁👄👁 Edit: this comment is obviously a joke y'all, I understand how justice works and ppl should be punished for their crimes-
Then again, you have to think about it, can you ever look at your own mother or any family member the same way if they commit such a heinous crime of murder. If my own family did so, I'd be left in horror and I wouldn't want to see them again. Even if it's my mom. Because that's no mom of mine.
@@NomadUrpagi He did what he told himself to do so why does he have to forgive himself if he did something which is good according to him (if it were bad according to him, he wouldn't've done that).
I’m not totally opposed to the death penalty. But I oppose it because I don’t think our society and current structures are able to administer it with 100% accuracy and fairness.
True but for me. Id rather have a serial killer sentenced to death rather than that serial killer inside of a cell with someone who didnt do the crime. I agree tho not everyone should get it
see no death penalty is the reason y more and more ppl r raped. If death penalty is very strict rape will be less but some innocent man might die. But still weighing the pros amd cons. One innocent man dying to 99 kids raped or murdered. So im pro death penalty
What the lady in the black said finally hit me. I was thinking she was advocating for no death penalty because the woman killed her husband and it was deserved, but then I realized she was trying to make a point that if she doesn't have the right to kill a horrible sick human being that shouldn't be a part of society, then neither do we. We as a people commit murder with the death penalty. Some may think it's justice, but it is still murder.
I do agree that she should be able to take it into her own hands if we as a society can all make a decision to have a death penalty and murdering killers and rapist is way better than caring for them and letting them live weather it’s out side jail or in prison for their lives it’s not with it. I wouldn’t wanna feed someone who murdered someone I care about
It is so interesting to talk about the concept of forgiveness. I have talked to someone who has experienced horrific traumatic things during WWII (Jewish). They have told me, that in order to live a happy, complete life, they at some point had to "get rid of the anger and forgive". It was not about the people commiting the crime, but about selflove and "moving on", retaking the power over your own life and not be a "slave" to someone elses choices. I have no idea how I would deal with such trauma, but it was so very inspiring.
I've dealing with the same thing. I had so much hate towards a person , but after a point I want to move on. The problem was that I was feeling, that by forgiven him, it was like a favor towards him. Until I uderstand that forgiveness is something you do for yourself in order to move on and not be stuck in the past and all the bad felling that came with the past. When I try to explain this to other people they don't get it at all, so I am happy there are out there people that uderstand this concept of forgiveness. (sorry for bad English)
Forgiving is very difficult and is not always something you're able to do but actively hating someone (or being afraid of someone that's still out there) is exhausting. So, if forgiveness means to stop actively making hating-them a part of your day, then yes.
I'll be honest. You do not have to forgive a person who has wronged you. You can forget what they did, become indifferent towards them but you definitely do not have to forgive them.
Kaneki Ken you know he’d try to reason with him. He’s a martyr. That’s not bad! The likelihood of him surviving a zombie apocalypse is slim to none tho. Eye somebodies got to be that person!
@Enrique 5573 there is no absolute perfect Proof... In many cases people thought so, but it proved to be wrong. Only then the people were already dead...
@Enrique 5573 that's why death punishment should be forbidden... And even If he/she acctually killed the victim... What makes killing the accused one any better?
this would be very interesting, but probably highly biased on what they read online and not actually contemplate about it personally.. But again, of course not everybody
@@AceOfWaffles He explained it though. Like I said if you watched this channels Spectrum segment specifically "do all muslims think the same" you'd understand.
how do u decide that some people don't deserve a second chance? A second chance may just mean someone getting treated for their disabilities, maybe while serving life in prison. We shouldn't just throw away human life
“Would I want a second chance” you can want one and not deserve it. There’s a large difference between stealing candy and killing someone. What will you do if you killed someone and got a second chance? Kiss the grave?
I personally would rather have some suffer and remain in jail for the rest of their life for their heinous crimes than die. I feel like that’s a worst punishment than the latter.
@@ezradavid9089 I am in a half way point to what he says. I think that not giving killers a second chance is a bit too broad. Because what if it was in self defense from someone who tried to murder you? That's a different case from cold blooded murder that was pre-planned. And its these self defense cases that I think need to be the line between the pro death penalty and anti death penalty argument, which should be heavily discussed.
In a response to the women's argument of the women killing her husband: if we let one person take justice into their own hands, that opens the door for everyone. Where do we draw the line? Justice looks different to everyone. We need to have set rules, or there is chaos.
I agree with the part that people should not be encouraged to take justice into their own hands. However, we must also acknowledge that the act of that woman is kind of justified. Not to say that she doesn't deserve any punishment but the death penalty is a bit far fetched, at least in this scenario.
Exactly , imagine her mother in law was devastated and went and killed her then the father of the wife came and killed her husband's mother .. it would be a loop hole that would only end if everyone is killed
Alot of people wouldn't know a veteran came up with the idea to kneel for the flag out of respect to it and the fallen brothers and sisters and I think this show could broadcast that BEAUTIFULLY to SO many people who still don't know, so thanks for sharing that idea Nyla! I hope they consider it!
leonard u Colin Kaepernick did not kneel for the flag to show disrespect, as he has stated he meant no harm and has family and friends in the military. He was trying to peacefully protest for those of color that have not been blessed with the same amount of freedom that most of us have. He said, and I quote, “I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color," To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder."
As a victim of abuse and neglect, let me tell you, people have all sorts of compassion for your abuser but not for you. You have to hurry up and forgive or YOURE a bad person
Well here’s one thing: sometimes when ur in a extremely traumatic experience “Forgiveness” forces upon in the form of losing ur mental state so ur body can take it, like the China chained lady who was chained to a shed forced to have 8 babies of her kidnapper
Idk if you will see this but people like Emmit Till are killed all the time for death penalty for no reason, me personally I'm anti death penalty just bc I think taking someone's life is a pretty big deal and personally I believe in punishment I just feel as if death is too quick and that being in prison makes you really learn your lesson
Thingy Thangs I agree with that , I feel as if the death penalty should be used only for vaild reasons, not little crimes or innocent people accused of murders.
*clears throat*, the girl is literally arguing that the death penalty is never okay but said that the hypothetical woman’s husband was deserving of the death penalty and said it was a “social justice”? Whaaaaat, Like get your story straight

Jerome Brown ted by day deserves a second chance if he is given proper pshyciatirc help AFTER he admits and is genuinely looking for rehabilitation AFTER forgiveness from the families of his murder which I believe is highly unlikely and completely suitable to left unforgiving
I am against the death penalty for one main reason: the law is upheld by people. People make mistakes. People are biased. People lie. There are hundreds, if not thousands of PROVEN cases of someone being imprisoned, even sentenced to death, to a crime they didn’t commit. The whole point of the death penalty is to take a life for committing an absolutely heinous crime. Usually involving taking a life. The idea that one person could be (and has been) executed in the past for a crime they didn’t commit is a bigger crime than any I can imagine. The justice system permanently condemning an innocent person... that’s the worst kind of horror story.
There was a quote in the "Making a Murderer" series that really stuck with me. It was "you can always guarantee that you won't commit a crime, but you can never guarantee that you won't be accused of one." Gives me chills!
Introverted No I’m not stupid, thanks for asking. They’re many many many people in jail who innocent. Also people have died for crimes they did not commit.
He would be the first person to be a victim of a heinous crime. Having too much faith in humanity is not a good thing. People too often forget we are still animals.
I'm not, because that argument is essentially meaningless; the idea that citizens "give the state power" is nothing but a self-comforting illusion; the basic fact is that whatever organized body wields the military might to hold the final veto on policy making and to ultimately enforce its dictates is, by definition, 'The State'; if you don't have such a body, you have anarchy (not a state) and if you do have one, then that body has as much power (at least with respect to the treatment of its citizens) as its operatives choose to apply, regardless of how the populace feels about it; even if you could organize a popular revolt to overthrow the current state (which likely wouldn't even be possible as long as the military still follows orders), the armed revolutionary guard would simply become a successor state, and would be similarly unanswerable until a superior military came to supplant them.
@@ruthvanbeek422 it’s a completely out of context not relevant comparison. She’s using an innocent theme to compare to a heinous theme to make the crimes seem less evil or bad.

A four year old that breaks a vase needs to be disciplined, but it is in no way comparable to someone in their right mind who is knowingly murdering another human.

Banana fish she stated a story with a woman who killed a man that raped her daughter and other horrible things. She then acts surprised when they say she deserves the death penalty. She lit the man on fire and if she had not killed him she could have gotten justice without her killing him.
@@cowsrock1q but they are flawed and biased. the best example to that is slavery. it used to be legal and it wasn't something based on emotion, but there was interest, profit and pressure from certain social groups to pass laws and keep it legal for hundreds of years. just because something is in the Constitution, it doesn't mean it's right.
The thing I can never understand is this: we agree that taking someone’s life is wrong, and should be punished. But the punishment is literally to take that person’s life? That seems so hypocritical and counterproductive. It’s only okay to take a life if they took someone else’s first? I believe all life has inherent value, and yes, it’s terrible that people murder each other. They should be punished. But the way to punish murder is not to continue murdering people.
@@a.j.c3365 In that case the punishment must be something like a life sentence. Thoses people would have to suffer all their life in prison, and to me that is an even worst punishment than a death penalty.
So if someone is arrested for kidnaping then you do not think they should be put in jail? Putting them in jail is essentially legal sanctioned abduction
There's a difference. We agree to the fact that the ability of taking someone's life/the ability to decide punishment should rest ONLY with the upholders of the law ie the courts (with certain exceptions obviously).

He has probably more optimism on us than you have in yourself. If he'd be the first to die he would because society is shit not because he is. He'd not be alive to think about that but the rest living people would and reflect.

omg lol accurate
I got so upset when they brought up that that mother who killed her husband for what he did to their daughter should have just had trust in the legal system, do you understand how many people who had trust in the legal system for assault and how many got the bare minimum or nothing?
so, fuck the legal system, right?
There is not a jury in the world who would try her. She got away with it.
She dhould still get death penslty. Thats what you get for taking matters into your own hands
@@rielhsliso8363 I think she should get the death penalty for taking matters into her own hands if the legal system is actually doing their job and is to be trusted in serving justice. So considering how many predators get away with only the bare minimum if anything, her actions Don't deserve the death penalty.
Though I do think she should serve time in jail.

I looked at that a little different.
Those 2 guys he hugged were the ones that said their mothers shouldnt be exempt of the death penalty. The Afro Dude came at them afterwards saying he was shocked and that was the problem with society. Then at the end, he hugged them both and said "How is your mother?". I personally think the guy was being passive aggressive and was essentially backhanding them in the guise of a hug.
The guy in the Afro is like bob ross but without paintings

The only argument needed to be against the death penalty: you can free the wrongly accused, but you can’t bring the executed back from the dead.
Yes that’s why they are executed. To put an end to their heinous crimes. I believe our justice system needs work and the death penalty can’t be thrown around. Innocent people of course should not be executed and there needs to be a way to fix that. But I believe the death penalty is reserved for those who have committed horrible acts of terror and who have the complete disregard for human life. Ted Bundy escaped from prison twice and each time he escaped, he raped and murdered more women. That’s why the death penalty exists and that’s why he was executed. People who can’t play by the rules regarding human life must not be allowed to live amongst us
@@kieranmooney3453 and there are many people who have been wrongly executed. I’ll never be ok with killing innocents. Especially when the justice system is so incompetent. There will never be a world where there are no wrongful convictions. But I do understand where you are coming from.
@@fairyonice9504 I’m with you! We need to stop the execution of innocent people. Definitely needs reform. They need to be 100% sure someone did the crime before they toss the death penalty around.
@@kieranmooney3453 Which is impossible, and any entry level Crim Law class will teach you that.
I agree but we can’t just have monster locked in a box forever living off our tax. Why should i pay for a child abuser to live , we need more options
I would be for the death penalty if there was a definite way to prove people on death row as guilty. A study came out that showed 4% of them were innocent, that’s overwhelming to me.
That study includes people that were convicted decades ago. Show me the study of people that were convicted recently. You know. Now that we have DNA evidence. That’s the only reason we even know about that 4%. Which means it’s nowhere near 4% today. Now, it takes a lot to be put to death. And we already have like 20 years worth of appeals before they die.
Yep in retrospect that’s way too high.
Only one problem with the study... how tf do you calculate that? Detectives are detectives for a reason. I doubt a random scientist could do detective work better. There are some cases where it's clear that the wrong person was executed but that's a small number. The other 95%+ is unknown
@@anonymousperson3023 What a smart idea. Im sure the researchers didnt know about that. im guessing you think the person who did the research pulled the numbers out of their ass, huh?
I looked it up and only 18 people have died. And that’s mostly due to them outliving the waiting line for death row
The death penalty would only work if people who were on death row were 100% guilty. But our world isn’t perfect, and people do get falsely incriminated all the time.
I would say the death penalty should only be for people who confessed to their crime.
StrangaDanga But why would anyone confess if theyre gonna get killed after, I wouldn’t confess
I dont like the thought of death penalty, even if they are guilty.
@@Niiju Oh really? What kind of proof? If you're talking about eye witnesses, it's been proven that people can be mislead and coerced into give false witness testimony. DNA evidence? Cross contamination is a thing. Video? Deep fakes. The truth is you can never really be sure who killed a person unless they confess to it or if they are caught in the act. Nothing in the world is 100 percent reliable and innocent people have been executed before.

@@hananna1825 I might be wrong, but from what I understand, keeping a person in death row is far more expensive per year, but once they're dead they stop being a cost to the state, while the life-imprisoned inmate will continue costing the state their entire life.

Remember George stinney
You should cut off their hands and legs..
im against it because 4% of people on death row are innocent and its also expensive
In my opinion, the only thing worse than death is torture. Most people deserving of the death penalty are already past the point of remorse, so making them think about their crimes won't do anything. Bottom line for me is, at least they get to live. Their victims don't.
@@savagecabbage138 a) check your statistics and context b) it's not nearly as expensive as keeping them in jail for their entire life

Immediately looked for this comment - completely agree. Baseless argument for an adult topic
It’s a example for people to express their foundation of morality. Is it better to punish or to bring understanding? Should you do both?

Fr he needs to go back
what do you think about kira and his judgement
L, You should just lock Light up. If you want Moral High Ground against Light/Kira.
Statistically, increasing the severity of the punishment up to the death penalty has VERY little effect on crime rates. People don't commit crimes with the expectation of getting caught. Pickpocketing used to have a sentence of hanging. And other pickpockets would go to the crowds of people watching someone get hanged for picking pockets, and pick their pockets. Lots of people were gathered in a small area, lots of bumping into each other and everyone was distracted. Easy opportunity to pick pockets. Didn't matter what the punishment was. If you want to reduce crime, you need to convince people that getting caught is LIKELY, not that is carries great sentences.

But unfortunately that's not the case, people do horrible things and honestly i think he is just too soft. My opinion is an eye for an eye and not everyone deserves a second change.
@@rens3286 An eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind. If someone does something it's just going to cause a chain reaction of someone else going to go get back at that person. I don't disagree with the death penalty personally, but we really should put more consideration into the circumstances of what happened and why it happened. Some people are just cold blooded killers, some people however commit a murder once (I say murder because it's still a murder no matter the circumstances), and would never do it again. Say for instance the woman that set the man on fire for what happened to her daughter. I don't think she should get the death penalty. Life in prison? Maybe. Life in prison with a CHANCE to eventually go free on a supervised parole? Absolutely. I also think however she should have gone to the cops and that the guy deserved to go through the due process of the law. I feel like he should have got the death penalty, but that's up to the courts. Two wrongs don't make a right but my whole point in stating this is there are most of the time circumstances where bad stuff happens to family or children and during a fit of rage someone acts out. I think the death penalty should be a last ditch effort or saved for the most heinous crimes. I'm a bigger fan of life in prison for most of the people. But someone that say murders an entire family in my opinion does deserve the death penalty.
Oh yea Yea Someone told me that once too,unfortunately it’s easier said than done.
Official Barack Hussein Obama II his argument is not derived from a delusional stand point of everyone being a good person, but more so the rehabilitation for criminals and opportunities. There’s a very thin line between punishment and rehabilitation in this country. The Probations and parole systems are terrible considering the fact that most of them don’t care about you. Most parole officers see between 100-150 people a week! Imagine that and on top of that, paper work for each person in a 40 hour week schedule...It’s a very interesting way in how
The system operates. Statistically speaking most people that go to jail are very likely to just end up right back in because of the lack of resource and crappy rehab system. I love that guy’s optimism, and don’t confuse optimism with delusion, a lot of people have that huge misconception :)

girl: that woman was doing some global justice for burning her husband
also girl: I'm anti-death penalty
Honestly, that situation is amazing, because it exposes hypocritical thinking on either side. Just suppose that a guy killed a victim, and then the girl killed the guy. Should the girl be killed?
PRO DEATH PENALTY: The woman should be killed, but this suggests that the guy shouldn't have been killed which is inconsistent with these ideals.
ANTI-DEATH PENALTY: The woman shouldn't be killed, but then this suggests that the guy should have been killed which is inconsistent with these ideals.
My thoughts on this are shaky and not as concrete as they should be (as this is a new concept for me), but I just needed to write this down to help me think about it a bit more.
@Willy Wonka well, it’s only hypocritical thinking if you assume that the reasoning for wanting the death penalty or not is based solely on the moral stance one takes on the woman’s actions.
So, for example, the pro-death penalty one. You say it exposes hypocrisy on the pro-death penalty side if they want the woman to be executed because it suggests that what the woman did (killing her husband) was wrong, which is hypocritical since they believe in the government killing people who commit crimes. But, someone who is pro death penalty might tell you that they don’t necessarily believe that the outcome of the husband dying is wrong, and on a personal level they might even agree that it was global justice. But they would say that it’s wrong and bad for society that the _wife_ is the one that killed him and broke the law in doing so. They’re argument would be on a legal basis, centering around deterrence, and not on whether they personally support what she did on an emotional level.
@@kk8490 Thank you for your response as it helps me when thinking about this topic. However, basing a decision solely on legality is basing the decision on what someone else has decided because what is legal has been decided by someone else. Therefore, the person who made the laws the way they are was basing it off of what they think morally and therefore is hypocritical.
@Willy Wonka true, it is basically kicking the ball down the road, but I suppose most things are like that. The government punished people who kidnap people by kidnapping them and throwing them in a jail cell, stealing is wrong but the state can and does forcibly take money from you come tax season. A lot of government action can come across as hypocritical, but they can do things citizens can’t because as a society we vest power to our governments and allow them to have a monopoly on these actions. I think that’s called the social contract but I’m not 100% sure. A pro death penalty person would just argue to extend it to include state sanctioned execution.
But I agree it’s a weak argument, and I find most pro death penalty arguments unpersuasive. I’m really glad I live in a country that doesn’t have it lol.
But that is a difference when it is outside the Justice system
I loved this middle ground discussion.

I am anti death penalty but both sides had great points.
I am also anti death penalty but yes, I agree that some of the people in this video made great points
I’m not totally opposed to the death penalty. But I oppose it because I don’t think our society and current structures are able to administer it with 100% accuracy and fairness.
Exactly, I agree totally.
True but for me. Id rather have a serial killer sentenced to death rather than that serial killer inside of a cell with someone who didnt do the crime. I agree tho not everyone should get it
But crimes that lead to death penalty has way more chances to filter out the innocent people
@Skyle Andria as much as i don't like leftists, i think that they are important.
the world run on a perfect balance
see no death penalty is the reason y more and more ppl r raped. If death penalty is very strict rape will be less but some innocent man might die. But still weighing the pros amd cons. One innocent man dying to 99 kids raped or murdered.
So im pro death penalty

What the lady in the black said finally hit me. I was thinking she was advocating for no death penalty because the woman killed her husband and it was deserved, but then I realized she was trying to make a point that if she doesn't have the right to kill a horrible sick human being that shouldn't be a part of society, then neither do we. We as a people commit murder with the death penalty. Some may think it's justice, but it is still murder.
Cameron that's the gray issue. What the women did was vigilante(ism?).
When and where aren't we able to put the law into our own lives.
she wasn't that smart
I do agree that she should be able to take it into her own hands if we as a society can all make a decision to have a death penalty and murdering killers and rapist is way better than caring for them and letting them live weather it’s out side jail or in prison for their lives it’s not with it. I wouldn’t wanna feed someone who murdered someone I care about
She basically made an argument against laws then
@@vividrainbowsparks1104 she made an argument against a specific law.
It is so interesting to talk about the concept of forgiveness. I have talked to someone who has experienced horrific traumatic things during WWII (Jewish). They have told me, that in order to live a happy, complete life, they at some point had to "get rid of the anger and forgive". It was not about the people commiting the crime, but about selflove and "moving on", retaking the power over your own life and not be a "slave" to someone elses choices. I have no idea how I would deal with such trauma, but it was so very inspiring.
I've dealing with the same thing. I had so much hate towards a person , but after a point I want to move on. The problem was that I was feeling, that by forgiven him, it was like a favor towards him. Until I uderstand that forgiveness is something you do for yourself in order to move on and not be stuck in the past and all the bad felling that came with the past. When I try to explain this to other people they don't get it at all, so I am happy there are out there people that uderstand this concept of forgiveness. (sorry for bad English)
That is a fallacy I have not always forgiven people for harm they might have done to me and yet I live a perfectly happy life.
Forgiving is very difficult and is not always something you're able to do but actively hating someone (or being afraid of someone that's still out there) is exhausting.
So, if forgiveness means to stop actively making hating-them a part of your day, then yes.
I'll be honest. You do not have to forgive a person who has wronged you. You can forget what they did, become indifferent towards them but you definitely do not have to forgive them.

@@ezradavid9089 I am in a half way point to what he says. I think that not giving killers a second chance is a bit too broad. Because what if it was in self defense from someone who tried to murder you?
That's a different case from cold blooded murder that was pre-planned. And its these self defense cases that I think need to be the line between the pro death penalty and anti death penalty argument, which should be heavily discussed.
This one is easilyyy my fav Jubilee debate. Clever, factual and intriguing. Very civilized too.
In a response to the women's argument of the women killing her husband: if we let one person take justice into their own hands, that opens the door for everyone. Where do we draw the line? Justice looks different to everyone. We need to have set rules, or there is chaos.
Yeah, the problem is the example she brought up is basically a woman doing her own death penalty
I would have done the same thing, I think I'm a very moral overall "good" human being. I think you would have to have that happen to you
I agree with the part that people should not be encouraged to take justice into their own hands. However, we must also acknowledge that the act of that woman is kind of justified. Not to say that she doesn't deserve any punishment but the death penalty is a bit far fetched, at least in this scenario.
Exactly , imagine her mother in law was devastated and went and killed her then the father of the wife came and killed her husband's mother .. it would be a loop hole that would only end if everyone is killed
Batman, Batman is where we draw the line.

Sean Hill what has kneeling for the flag solved?
leonard u Colin Kaepernick did not kneel for the flag to show disrespect, as he has stated he meant no harm and has family and friends in the military. He was trying to peacefully protest for those of color that have not been blessed with the same amount of freedom that most of us have. He said, and I quote, “I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color," To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder."
As a victim of abuse and neglect, let me tell you, people have all sorts of compassion for your abuser but not for you. You have to hurry up and forgive or YOURE a bad person
Afro guy is a textbook example of someone like that
For the worst of violent crimes...screw forgiveness. Criminals show no mercy on their victims, so why should society show them any mercy?

Jerome Brown ted by day deserves a second chance if he is given proper pshyciatirc help AFTER he admits and is genuinely looking for rehabilitation AFTER forgiveness from the families of his murder which I believe is highly unlikely and completely suitable to left unforgiving
I am against the death penalty for one main reason: the law is upheld by people. People make mistakes. People are biased. People lie. There are hundreds, if not thousands of PROVEN cases of someone being imprisoned, even sentenced to death, to a crime they didn’t commit. The whole point of the death penalty is to take a life for committing an absolutely heinous crime. Usually involving taking a life. The idea that one person could be (and has been) executed in the past for a crime they didn’t commit is a bigger crime than any I can imagine. The justice system permanently condemning an innocent person... that’s the worst kind of horror story.

C-3PO I’m loving your account pic.
it resonates with everyone i think is the thing
I'm surprised not one of the anti-capital punishment people mentioned the issue of giving the state that much power
I'm not, because that argument is essentially meaningless; the idea that citizens "give the state power" is nothing but a self-comforting illusion; the basic fact is that whatever organized body wields the military might to hold the final veto on policy making and to ultimately enforce its dictates is, by definition, 'The State'; if you don't have such a body, you have anarchy (not a state) and if you do have one, then that body has as much power (at least with respect to the treatment of its citizens) as its operatives choose to apply, regardless of how the populace feels about it; even if you could organize a popular revolt to overthrow the current state (which likely wouldn't even be possible as long as the military still follows orders), the armed revolutionary guard would simply become a successor state, and would be similarly unanswerable until a superior military came to supplant them.

The thing I can never understand is this: we agree that taking someone’s life is wrong, and should be punished. But the punishment is literally to take that person’s life?

I believe all life has inherent value, and yes, it’s terrible that people murder each other. They should be punished. But the way to punish murder is not to continue murdering people.
I mean if they killed people for no reason but enjoyment like Ted Bundy they lost their lives how is it far he gets the gift of staying alive
@@a.j.c3365 In that case the punishment must be something like a life sentence. Thoses people would have to suffer all their life in prison, and to me that is an even worst punishment than a death penalty.
So if someone is arrested for kidnaping then you do not think they should be put in jail? Putting them in jail is essentially legal sanctioned abduction
There's a difference. We agree to the fact that the ability of taking someone's life/the ability to decide punishment should rest ONLY with the upholders of the law ie the courts (with certain exceptions obviously).
People get life sentences already bro.
