[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] Ziyal: "countries with lower crime rates have no death penalty." True, but I'm sure there are fewer murders in Uganda than there are in Britain (did I spell that right this time? [IMG]http://flare.solareclipse.net/smile.gif[/IMG] ). It could easily be due to other factors. If you want real comparison, go state by state WITHIN the US. "You can't really draw the line where a cell becomes human life, either" I can for myself. I can use clinical definitions to proove another line. You're not compairing like values. There's a difference between "when is it alive" and "when does it deserve death". One's a moral judgement. The other's clinical and scientific. "The problem is, the majority of people on death row are minorities and/or poor. Do they deserved to die more than rich whites?" Ah, and race comes up again. To answer: Yes, they do. Because they commited crimes that a jury decided were worthy of death. Whereas the "rich whites" didn't. Simple as that. You are making good points about the morality of it, though. Maybe enough to change my mind. Again. [/QB][/QUOTE]
