I don't buy into the innocent people being executed argument because I have yet to see convincing evidence supporting that claim.

The reason I don't support the death penalty is because it's a huge waste of money.

If executions happened within two years tops, I'd be fine with it. But right now it costs more money to execute someone than jail them for life.

The two options we have are to reform the system (which is highly unlikely) or abolish the death penalty to save the taxpayer money.

If you ask me, the entire criminal justice system is too soft on real criminals and too harsh on petty offenders (like pot smokers).
