I've always had trouble with this one. I was more against it when I was younger, but as I've gotten older, I don't find it quite as inhumane as I use to.

As of now, I guess I would have to say that in some cases, and under certain circumstances, that yes, the death penalty is a fair punishment for certain criminals.

That said, I think it should pretty much be based on individual cases, and not a punishment that blankets one particular crime. Basically, I wouldn't want it to become something where certain crimes would always result in the death penalty.

To a certain extent, I would say it should have more to do with a persons mental state, moreso than just being about the crime they committed.

For wanton murder, every time, regardless of the criminal's state of mind at the time. And I don't think of the death penalty so much as punishment, but rather as permanent banishment. I would also put to death serious crimes of child molestation. Those child molesters never stop doing it, and there will always be future victims, however else it is treated.
