Against the Death Penalty ?

I believe that people in this day and age are too egger to forgive and forget, I understand peoples stance on the death penalty and the beliefs that many people have about the state of Texas executing innocent people. I don’t believe that doing away with the death penalty is the answer though. I feel as if the state of Texas decided that there would be no more executions that the crime rate would go up. Also for the criminals that actually committed a crime worthy of the death penalty, what would happen to them with out capital punishment? Probably get put in prison and then file an appeal and be released early do to “good behavior” as if someone killing someone should ever be considered to have good behavior. If the problem people are having is with the amount of time spent looking into a defendant’s case, then fine, Spend more time but I would result to doing away with capital punishment simply because there’s a thought that innocent people are being executed. There’s also a thought that the United States Government was behind 9/11, depending on what conspiracy theorist you ask. So does that mean we should get rid of the Untied States Government too?
