Dylann Roof sentenced to death

Dylann roof has today been sentenced to death for his activities towards blacks. I personally believe his death penalty should be immediately reversed. the Jury should be ashamed of themselves. The death penalty is not appropriate.

Regardless, he has purportedly admitted some sort of guilt for this accused activity, and so the Jury subsequently found him guilty and sentenced him to death today.

Do you think Dylann Roof should have his sentence pardoned? How do you think this bodes for White-Black relations? How do you feel about his purported activities and subsequent retaliation?

...How is capital punishment not appropriate for murder in states where it is on the books?

I oppose the death penalty, though I suspect for different reasons than you.

20 qwatloos say it's because Roof shot black people.

I disagree with the Death Penalty, i think he should get a life sentence instead. This is not based on the race of the offender, just my belief on the death penalty.

That being said, his crime was both aggravated and horrific. He certainly deserved the conviction he got, though not the final judgment of death.

He's not better than a member of ISIS as far as i'm concerned.

Why isn't the death penalty not appropriate

[Major-Tom]

Generally, as a Christian, I oppose the death penalty by the way, but in cases like this, I really can't say "DON'T DO IT." What other options are there? The kid is permanently fucked and killed a ton of people, a lethal injection is probably a good idea here.

We teach people that killing is wrong... by killing people. Yeah, that totally makes sense. He's a monster for what he did, and he will get his one day, but this whole " a life for a life" mentality is downright wrong.

I disagree, the death penalty is never appropriate. Humans have a right to life, even the scummiest humans. Plus the chance of accidentally killing an innocent man , and the fact it cost more to execute someone than imprison them for life, has lead me to believe that the death penalty should be abolished.

That's on top of all the moral consequences of the death penalty.

Sure....but a shot to the arm seems more effective.

[Saiwania]

Practically speaking, doesn't this mean that he'll spend a decade or longer on death row?

It's a very simple solution. If you take a life in cold blooded murderer for absolutely no reason whatsoever than to satisfy some bullshit carnal desire (Robbery or some type of crime) then you also don't deserve to live since you didn't allow that person to live their life fully and completely.

It's not. It's actually more expensive, more risky and you run the potential of accidentally killing the wrong person. Plus, killing doesn't bring back the dead, it just satiates our perverted human desire for social vengeance.

I just think it should be used sparingly, very seldom. Y'know, mass murder and the likes.

More effective at doing what? Broadcasting our hypocrisy to the world? Sure!

Death is too good for him. Let him sit in a cell and dwell on the mistakes of his life. He may not be remorseful now, but time breaks even the strongest of people.

Ehhh...I always hear people say a lethal shot is more expensive than life in prison. How does that work?

True, thats why you rarely use it. And sometimes vengeance is good.

[Populi-Terrae]

While I agree that Dylan Roof should be punished for his atrocities, capital punishment is not the way to do it.

if you kill him, you risk turning him into a martyr for white nationalists and Neo-Nazis. I think it is better off to let him grow old and die in prison, or arrange a 'accident' with a cell block full of black inmates.

So we hold him around and kill him 20 years for now, spending all that extra cash, just for some sense of final justice?

Pointless, waste of money and doesn't bring back the dead.

[The Serbian Empire]

The only thing bad about him being sentenced to death is that he'll be in solitary confinement and able to cost millions in appeals. Life would be cheaper.

You may have a point..

It'll actually be more expensive and take years.

Wasn't Roof trying to start a race war rather than is being some random thing?

[Major-Tom]

Shit, come to think of it, the years on death row does cost more money. Taxpayers always come first, don't kill him then.
