I believe that people who do certain acts to torture people, should have the same in return, as death is often something that is an easy type of torture. However, there is a side to this debate that is if people who severely torture others get caught and killed, it may be safer without them. Saying that, I do believe that people should get the chance to receive a much better sentence, that would not involve killing them.

If you kill someone who committed murder then you're just saying that one form of murder is okay but another is not, and this is not sending a good message.

The death penalty should not be legal, situations are different every time but sometimes life imprisonment is even worse than death. How are you supposed to determine the rightful murder of someone (eg someone murdering a rapist or something) versus a malicious murder?
Plus, for example if the leader of a terrorist group is captured and executed for his crimes, he becomes a martyr to his followers and supporters.
If you are able to capture someone's and put the most in prison for life, there is no reason to execute them.

Death penalty is a cop out- would you rather die or spend your whole life in a cell or die. If you killed someone you should be tortured and no be given the easy way out.

Why?
Committing crimes such as murder, drug trafficking, crimes against humanity

Personally, with the types of crimes that have been discovered, people should not be executed and face capital punishment, I believe that they should have to suffer because of the crime they have committed. Unless, they are mass murderers or if they would be a risk for other people in prison, they should not be executed.
