Re: Does capital punishment reduce crime?
try looking at statistics concerning the reported crime rate in states with a death penality and in states without comparing cultural mores and the number of people in each place. i am not sure that comparisons between countries would be as trust worthy because of the higher level in cultural differences. personally i think killing prisoners has more to do with the level of violence in well thought out crimes as opposed to street crime and family murders. the only moral aspect i see stems from the idea of justice which i have personal distain for but which may serve a purpose socially speaking.
