:
The more I look at today's society the more I start to become in favor for instating the death penalty. Apparently the idea of morals have completely faded away with generations and it's now a normal thing to rob a store when you're 20 and shoot the owner when he's calling the police. People who do this simply don't change, no matter what you do. You can throw them in jail and 10 years later he's exactly the same or worse.
And "everyone makes mistakes"? Well I'm sorry but I know the consequences for robbing a bank and shooting two police officers. I still choose to do it then yeah that's one hell of a mistake. Does that mean I should just walk away? Because I made a bad choice? Because I was such a retard and shot those two policemen full knowing what would happen? I call bullshit. Anyone who willingly, knowingly and predetermined hurts or causes damage to others should be shot on sight.
I'm getting sick of today's society where violence is normal and is two inches away from being fucking rewarded. Your thoughts?

Isn't it probable that the uptick in violence is our response to the unevolving mode of accepted 'social norm'? Doesn't it seem that persecuting the
individual for an act that they have likely made out of desperation and a feeling that they have no other option only lend to perpetuating a system that is
already broken? Do we really understand
why these acts are commited; ourselves sitting pretty not putting ourselves in their shoes and thus not truly understanding the reasoning behind their actions? Instead do we stay with unmoving minds and hearts and
judge them?
Doesn't it seem more reasonable to
tackle these fragments of a broken society rather than the
people who are caught within it?
EDIT
I think it poignant to mention that society is the sum of its individuals, and a problem arises when we try to 'sweep' these problems/people under the rug. Just kill them.
