Choosing death is incredibly brave or incredible ignorant. I am 99.99999% sure that once dead there is absolutely nothing, and as such no discomfort in that state whatsoever, Still though, instinct tells me I want to live, and I would not be prepared to consciously choose to ignore millions of years of evolution.

Of course, it would make a difference on what the crime is......If it was a murder or a rape, definitely a death penalty is the best option. While there are those who will say that the death penalty is a cruel punishment, they are not looking at the side of the victim. Furthermore, these days, forensic technology has gone pretty far that it is almost impossible to put an innocent man/woman in jail. One crime that I would love to see a special punishment for is child molestation. I just find that to be so unforgiving and there is no cure or treatment for such a thing. It is not a psychological issue, but rather a choice of life. Side: Death Penalty
