I'm not against it because I feel pity for murderers, or because I believe that it makes us killers or drags us down to their level, which I don't believe it does. I'm against it because I don't believe it's a true punishment. I believe it's an escape for the convict, so they will never have to face what they did, they will never feel true guilt, they will never truly suffer like they deserve to. Instead they get the peace of death, and leave those whose lives they ruined behind to suffer, while they rest in eternal sleep. Instead, I believe in harder prisons, and life in prison actually meaning life. Discuss
