The death penalty or capital punishment is the punishment by death for a crime. Currently 58 countries worldwide allow the death penalty (including the U.S.) while 97 countries have outlawed it.
Only for crimes that warrant that kind of punishment.
@9BMZ5TXIndependent12mos12MO
I am neutral with the death penalty
@982VVVK1yr1Y
Yes, but in a way where the criminal gets used for a science experiment/ drug experiments
@96KW3XMDemocratic2yrs2Y
With a better justice system, yes.
Yes, but only if the country's justice system is fixed so that no one who was innocently convicted would receive such punishment.
Would violate the human rights and no study show that death penalty is effective.
No, Philippines has current poor justice system under this administration.
No, because death penalty is anti poor and majority of the people who are the victims of death penalty are innocent. Just fix first the justice system before they support this.
@968GJWY2yrs2Y
Yes, but if our justice system here in the Philippines has zero corruption but for now, No.
Yes, if only our justice system is in its highest quality
No. Anti poor and we should fix the Justice system first
@9684BBBIndependent2yrs2Y
We must focus more on improving our justice system than death penalty.
No, because there are cases that judges get payed by rich people and to make the suspect be a criminal without justice since our justice system is not so good or very poor.
@9675TDVIndependent2yrs2Y
No, not until the justice system is fixed and fair enough because many people are innocently convicted through the power of influence and money, and only for horrific crimes with undeniable evidence.
yes, as long as we have a fair justice system
@92S4D92Independent2yrs2Y
No, spending life in prison receiving daily tortures is a harsher sentence.
@8YL4VLNIndependent2yrs2Y
No, the current justice system is not fair for poor so many innocent might be convicted
no because I believe people can change
the death penalty is not a solution to reduce crime in the world because i believe that everyone has a reason why they do something or make a mistake
@8XKVYNVIndependent2yrs2Y
Depending on the crime committed
No because only the poor people are always sentence to death penalty but the rich one not. There's no equity.
@8XFCJ222yrs2Y
I support death penalty, if the person only is convicted many times of so many heavy crimes.
@8WC84GM3yrs3Y
No, becuase there is still a need to revise and do something about the justice system.
yes, but only if we have better and improved Justice System
@8VW59H4Independent3yrs3Y
Yes, but with the current status of our justice system the death penalty will only end up benefiting the rich and can be manipulated by people in power to throw innocent people into the death line. so No, for now.
@8VW57K3Independent3yrs3Y
Yes, but only for those who are surely guilty with evidences and not for those who were accused just because they are suspected.
Yes, if the trial will be held fairly and investigate thoroughly if he/she really did it
Yes, for those people who create heinous crimes that a citizen consider as community's enemy.
@8RQXF9G3yrs3Y
I would agree if it would be a petition between both sides of the accused and the accuser's family deciding what punishment should be done. Also, legitimate evidence is required before deciding to punish the convict to prevent false accusations. There should be a punishment for false accusers too, but death penalty is not to be involved this time.
@8PSSSHN3yrs3Y
Yes, but only if my side is in power.
No, only God can punished those who commited sins.
@8NZZLT33yrs3Y
Yes, They should face their consequences
It depends if the sin is unforgivable then no.
NO, Because I Believe that people can still change
Yes, if only they're proven guilty.
No, it's better to let them stay in prison
the victim or the victim's family should decide and it depends on how serious the crime is
@8KZY9KH4yrs4Y
yes but only for heinous crimes
It depends because sometimes innocents are receiving death penalty while others who really committed the crime is there outside, watching and having fun.
@8KYV8LWGreen Republican4yrs4Y
I do not support death penalty, it only cause many people die becuase of the crime they did, being lived in the prison is more better than giving them death penalty, giving them a chance to change.
@8FB68NV4yrs4Y
No, not until the justice system will be better because a lot of innocent are being convicted
for me no because it can be used for conspiracy
@8DH5DVL4yrs4Y
It depends on the situation, if there's enough evidence to prove
@8CT2R7C4yrs4Y
It depends on the situation especially if the evidence are overwhelming.
I support this not because I want bad guys to die but because if this is proven true, that death penalty is true, I think it will be a way for the crime rate to decrease because criminals will be scared to commit a crime if death penalty is proven fair.
@8CJW2KMDemocratic4yrs4Y
We don't have the right to take other person lives
It depends on the level of crime committed.
@8CJSJNR4yrs4Y
I think death penalty doesn't always applies on every case. We must always choose to look or to see where most citizen will benefit while of course having a fair justice system both side.
Only when our justice system is improved and the presented proofs in court is a hundred percent concrete.
The people does not have the right to kill but I support death penalty not because I don't believe in that commandment. But the thing is, if it is proven that death penalty will be fair, those who has the guts the do wrongdoings will be scared to commit crimes. If it is really implemented with fairness and just then I approve of it because I think it will lessen the crime of the society. The evil ones will now be afraid of committing a crime.
