In this silly country, a murderer gets life, which l believe is 15 years, unless the judge says otherwise, WE pay for him to live in a life of Luxury, FREE, everything he/she wants gets, We should have the death penalty brought back to deal with killers - l would pull the plug.
Not true, Arthur. The national average in the USA (well, in 2004) is that 2.5% of convicted murderers are on Death Row.
