Do you support the death penalty? (self.askuk)

Last time I looked a majority of Brits support the death penalty. Which personally I've always found quite disturbing considering all the problems with it.

But 5 mins on any subreddit and you have people frothing at the mouth to hang every criminal.

Which if even more disturbing.

So what do you think?

A slight majority of American support it. I, for one, do not. The margin of error is terrible and the govt is all too willing to cover up its mistakes.
