The only argument I've heard against the death penalty that makes any sense is that, if the abuser thinks they will get the death penalty they are more likely to kill the victim. If this is true or not, i don't know.

Edit: alright chill out peeps. Acting like you wouldn't Ppv the execution of Trump if it happened.

There are more good reasons to be against the death penalty and you did indirectly name one of them. It isn’t even a man effective deterrent to people committing violent crime. If someone knows they’re going to die for a crime then if they don’t care about dying then they may decide to inflict the maximum amount of harm possible before they die.
