Hello from down under!
« on: May 30, 2012, 03:35:43 AM »
Hello!

My name is Sam and I am a junior lawyer from rural Victoria.

I have a keen interest in jail systems around the world and particularly in the death penalty.

I don't feel like I have enough information to make a rational decision on whether the death penalty is right or wrong, and so am here to learn from all of you! I am pretty opened minded and believe we all have a right to our own opinions, and will therefore respect each opinion whether I agree or disagree.

I am really looking forward to engaging in some friendly debates, and meeting new friends with similar interests!

Thanks for reading :)

Welcome to the site. Please do not hesitate to engage in discussions  :-*
My reason for supporting the death penalty? A murderer has less of a right to live than his victim and already presents a danger while incarcerated for life. They have nothing to lose when the most they can get is Life in prison without parole.
