@9GZYG4J1yr1Y
Yes, for Homicide, mass murderer, serial killer, terrorist, rape, crime against children, crime against humanity and act of treason against the peoples of Canada.
@9KDYD2W1yr1Y
I believe the victim’s family should decide. However, I also believe that the person found guilty needs to thoroughly be proven guilty.
@97VCSDT2yrs2Y
For those who commit sexual crimes upon children.
@9H8JRFD1yr1Y
I think the victim’s family should have a say on the punishment but I think the death penalty should be replaced with a testing penalty and all serious criminals should be used for product testing instead of animals
@9FDJCNG1yr1Y
no, i don't think the death penalty should be allowed at all.
@9KDYHHZ1yr1Y
I think it would only be fair if the victims family got to choose but they should be 100% proven guilty. Too many innocent lives were taken due to false sentences
@9LMMHM711mos11MO
Yes, but the victim's family should decide, and only if it is a horrific crime with undeniable evidence
@9D4YVYK2yrs2Y
No. We should focus on rehabilitation of people in prisons rather than punishment and/or death.
