Giving a chance is a way where once who committed unlawful acts to its fellowmen given a chance to change that's why they are in prison.Maybe life imprisonment would be a alternative way for death penalty.As we observe now a days that those people who dismissed from their crime/cases repeatedly do the same thing,and maybe because of POVERTY especially on drugs.

Death penalty has its pro and con but I think it has little effect on reducing crimes. Though it does help reducing cost spent on prison. What do you guys think? Is there alternatives to punishing crimes?

Alternative for punishing crimes? Let them be in the drug trials and clinical trials for medical experiments. Let them tend to animals or even farm crops so they could feed themselves. Let them do manual labor and pay them food and lodging. If you still think this isn't enough then we could always just let them rot in prison. I still believe that death penalty isn't the way to go especially if the judicial system is flawed. If it was perfect then go for the death penalty.

The death penalty other than inconsistent with the constitution also violates human destiny. Because, life is a gift that can not be revoked by anyone, including the executioner who took refuge behind the constitution.
Crime prevention through capital punishment is not effective. Therefore, the prevention of crime should be with educational efforts, rather than executing someone. In addition, the death penalty can not be recovered when a defendant is found guilty, but has been executed. Life and death are the right, right to life and right to death. Life ends in death, should not be forcibly repealed in the name of the law. Death penalty should be replaced with life sentence. Therefore, life sentences still provide an opportunity for criminals to repent. In addition, life sentences do not violate human rights.

  Life sentences i agreed for the sake of not violate human right .may i suggest like alcatraz island were they can still have the opportunity to live and to have a chance to repent..

I would like to think imprisonment is a very effective means of punishment. But to solve the expenditure problem, make the prison self sustaining or income generating. For example, a prison is a great source of cheap manual labor. Let them break into rocks, build houses, plant crops stuff like that. I mean outside slavery and well within the humane treatment of inmates making a self sustaining income generating prison is very effective and very possible

I believe people need to get a chance to change themselves and even mentally challenged person should get medical help to recover.
And prison are not a great way to make them better person and is very costly.
I believe prisoners should be indulged to labour works and social works under proper supervision.

i could not have put it better myself . Criminals must be indulged to labour works for the economy's sake . But these prisoner must be under strict supervision for sure. Working for a society is the best punishment of all.

Death penalty in this country was not anymore a practice, but you will suffer a punishment of reclusion perpetua or life sentence.

Alternative would be to release people as soon as possible. Sure sounds lenient but let's also remember that for first time offenders, prison is where they meet hardened criminals and the possibility is high that they'd remain in contact with those after being released. Many criminal gangs are composed of mostly people who met in prison.

Personally I would say that death penalty is a very easy and lenient punishment , especially for hardcore criminals such as serial killers and child rapists. Lethal injection or electric chair makes sure that these people doesn't suffer for more than 60 seconds. I would prefer these people to suffer for the rest of their lives, by doing hard labor in some remote penal colony. 

Yeah, those are the sort of people we really like tortured first before being released from their pathetic existence.

What kind of alternative you want to here from our suggestions? Is it by cutting hand of a person is he is a theaf, this system is like an eye for an eye and tooth for tooth. If that so, then death penalty still need to apply if the suspect offence is about ended the life of a person. I am pro for death penalty but there should be  a certain standard for applying this punishment to someone. It should be done under legal term, because I believe that there are different types of leadership so I don't have a right to have an opposite move against the government.

The death penalty is a relic of the past which can be replaced with better alternatives. There is simply no use for it in the 21st century , from both a monetary and humane point of view.

It is since a lot of criminals are confident they will not be caught since they are being backed up by someone close to the one with power. Death Penalty is a sin when you based it on the bible but we can't just free this people since they will just commit again these crimes. I am not saying that all the people who commits a crime will be doing it again, there are some that are regretting they've done that and there are some who are itching to do that again especially to people whom they hate.

the alternative to death penalty for me depend what crime he commit if he is robber cut her arm like in the middle east country if he is rapist cut his egg,
if he killed someone take off his eyes in short if someone commit crime just take off his organs, this kind of system positively reduce the crime. Shocked

Some crimes really need death Penalty due to Severity of crime or Madness in individual Human being.

Many may be possible getting Death Penalty due to resemblance of crime in past. 

If jails become Equipped and make facility of Education for Prisoners , there is possibility of reducing Death Penalty and Prisoner can realize there mistake while studying.
