No, that is riduculous and you know it. the fact that you resort to this sort of thing shows you have no real arguments.
The death penalty is more expensive.

Death Penalty Focus*:*The High Cost of the Death Penalty
actually I know far more about the criminal justice system than you do and its more costly to kill this turd than it is to lock him up for life
The process to kill someone is expensive due to the excessive number of appeals, and the cost of housing someone for 20 years while they do all the mentioned appeals. If we were to execute within 1 year of conviction you'd probably find that the death penalty is far cheaper.

Trans - Allah is the greatest. His decisions are the greatest. Inshaallah to him we belong and to him we will return. They think that they are killing us and they celebrate this, but we are the ones who will rejoice when Allah grants us the chance to behold them in the flames of an eternal and terrifying fire, an otherworldly flame, inshaallah.
I love my sons. With this love I will stand in front of Allah. Thank you dear and may Allah be happy with you.

That is simply not true.
really? what proof do you have
and it takes years to execute someone so you are paying 20 years of that upkeep on death row plus all the appeals
First of all, it doesn't necessarily take 20 years. In any event you are arguing that it is cheaper to pay for 50+ years of upkeep (including in old age) including all the legal procedures, hearings, etc. during that period than to do so for 20 years. Have you ever tried logical reasoning?
the legal proceedings on a LWOP are quick-in the federal system, they can file only one collateral attack after the direct appeal is denied. have you ever actually litigated a federal criminal sentence
I have-at least 100. look up a 2255 petition and get back to me

They'll have one less martyr to motivate them. That counts for something.
You don't get it. No one "rots" in prison. They are pretty well taken care of for the most part. And if ever were allowed into general population, would be treated as a hero among the Islamic converts.

It isn't because one doesn't count the actual costs of keeping somebody locked up for the rest of his/her life (including the cost of housing, feeding, and guarding somebody for 50+ years, the cost of their medical care, the cost of all legal proceedings and hearings they may have during that entire period, etc.)
Why stop there? We could go the Chinese route and execute within 1 week!
So rather, reform the prisons and then remove the death penalty?
Why stop there? We could go the Chinese route and execute within 1 week!
But they have someone to use when bargaining for the release of our people when they are about to execute them.
It's lose-lose.
Not at all--especially since it was a GOP governor in Illinois who did away with the death penalty.
And then went to jail years later for bribes for licenses as Secretary of State.
The death of an all-white family of six from a Milwaukee suburb sealed that deal.
I support the legal systems of states--Massachusetts isn't known for its conservatism, is it ?
screw that. I say as soon as the judge determines the sentence, the bailiff carries it out within the next 30 seconds. better yet plant a bomb in the courtroom and have it set to go off at the end of the trial. if acquitted, then we can worry about disarming it.
