Do you think the death penalty can prevent or reduce crimes?

Yes,the death penalty should be used as a tool of punishment for those deserving of it.Over the years,there have been countless and unusually cruel crimes committed by man.These crimes range from an "innocent" rape to the torture and mutilation of the victim.Such men like Richard Trenton Chase.He was a serial killer,that was known as the Vampire of Sacramento because he not only killed,but drank the blood and ate the flesh of his victims,sometimes before even killing them.This is not a fantasy world,where only grown and mean men are targeted,but even more commonly,children and women are main targets of these evils.It is only understandable that even the inmates of Richard Trenton Chase wanted him to kill himself.Can you image a man who shot,raped and bathed in the blood of a three month pregnant women still breathing the same air as you?Would you,your wife and kids feel safe knowing that this man is still alive and well?
Do not think for one moment that this case is rare,and that no other man would do suck horrific things.A man named Jeffrey Dahmer,a man that could lie to your face,manipulate and dismember your body all within the same expression.Would anybody want such a danger to be kept alive?Or does anyone really think such a man can be changed?He is a cold,calculated and dangerous killer.
The death penalty is a part of the justice system.If you cannot kill a man for his evil deeds,than what makes you think he won't do it again?Or maybe you just want a percentage of your taxes to take care of him for the rest of his life.To keep him safe,bathed,fead,and entertained?In order to keep our society safe,and justice system,still one that most would not attempt to challenge,the death penalty must exist.

I don't think the death penalty can prevent crime altogether. Capital punishment has been around for thousands of years, but crime has never been stopped. Some people commit crimes because of their ps...
