What if the victim has no friends or family?
I would still be rather upset if you were murdered

Then he was very lonely, what's your point?

Uk murder rate 1.8 per 100k. US is 5.3 per 100k. Only one of these has the death penalty, so on face value it appears to be an ineffective deterrent
Does society need retribution at this level when the corollary is almost certain killing of innocents by the state? Not in my name.
Yeah, probably the most obvious response I predicted when typing that answer, and the fact that even Shep eschewed it should concern you
Why just me?,
Because you were the one that posted it durr
There are other differences between UK and USA, which MAY have an impact on the number killed eg firearms culture. Also, are the quoted figures comparable, ie taking into account the various "grades" of killings (eg manslaughter, murder, etc).
For what it is worth, I am not in favour of the death penalty.
I don't follow your logic, but, not to worry.
Doesn't usually stop you bestowing your self acclaimed expertise on anything and everything?In general, trying to unpick the statistics is a bit beyond the scope of me on a cycling forum.
Free up space in the prisons, save money and rid the world of some scum
Win, win if you ask me bring it back.
If in highly the unlikely occurrence a family member or friend of a murder victim finds a little comfort in said execution then who are we to judge, oh hang on a minute, it'll be you lefties.
