If they ended someones life then why should they have the right to continue living? It should be automatically forfeit. What else would you have them do with such scum? Use your taxes to feed them for decades until they rot away in prison?

I agree that some people should not be allowed to live.

Perhaps we should have let the recently hanged dictator live and maybe he would have redeemed himself. How long might it have taken? A year, two years, maybe even a little longer.

What is the alternative? Death or Imprisonment. That is a great question. I did think about the classic film and lobotomize them. But, there would need to be somebody to look after them and that would have to come out of the taxpayers money. And, the victims family would be paying that inadvertently.

I can't help thinking that if I were in the situation of having my child, or a loved one, murdered, would hanging, lethal injection or electric chair be enough. I know it is emotional revenge, but I would want them put to suffering the pain of death.

Over here in the UK we had a nurse that systematically murdered defenceless babies. Should she be allowed to live? Well she is enjoying rent-free accommodation where all her meals are provided for her (see link below). Is this right? I say not.
