Death penalty has no place today. It's barbaric, and, at least in america, it's like 5% of those executed are innocent. I don't know the exact number, but that's not good enough. Imagine waking up one day to be executed and you did nothing wrong.

You can always release somebody from prison, you can’t pick them up from the afterlife.

That's great! I hope more countries follow their example.
