I left out the part about the difference between execution and imprisonment is that one is not reversible. Okay, you can choose the lightest version of imprisonment or the lightest version of execution. I’ll go to prison for a month but someone in favor of execution won’t choose to be executed. If you think my logic is flawed than what’s your logic for capital punishment?

Those years can’t be given back but nothing is as irreversible as death. Plus we have an alternative to capital punishment that is the same to people on the outside, mostly: life in prison without parole. We don’t execute that many people and the cost per person ends up being more when you take into account litigation etc (I need to look that up to be sure). I believe the government should be in the business of helping people but not the business of killing people. Along with a lack of an effective healthcare system we are also an outlier in terms of capital punishment.

Yes however we are literally discussing the death penalty.

Ah no. Imprisonment can be reversed. Execution cannot. I forgot to mention that part. Is that a “nuance” to you?

What’s to debate? If we can convict people with flawless decisions than fine but otherwise we will end up executing innocent people. If you’re okay with that than let us execute you first. No? Okay then, no capital punishment. It’s pretty simple.
