Should Execution be Executed?

This question doesen't cross many peoples minds, but it's one that has crossed mine. I in no way support anybody who has committed an illegal crime, such as rape and murder, personally they mean absolutley nothing to me, but this is my opinion on execution. I think that execution is a TERRIBLE way to deal with a situation. I know that the prisoner being put on death row deserves every thing that gets thrown at them, but using the method of killing isent the way to deal with it. What kind of society puts a human in prison for killing, and yet we manage to kill them. This does not make any sence to me at all. We're just as equal as the prisoner, we think that since they kill someone, then we have to kill back. I know if you disagree with me you think that they "may" escape and "may" harm somebody, but if we lived in a world of maybes then nothing would get done. The chance of a dangerouse person escaping will always be there wether we like it or not, but we can't use death as a result to prevent an escape. None of these people deserve a life, but as much as you want them dead, you have to realize what's going on. We can't honestley call ourselves humans if we kill one another. This applys to the criminal, and to the executer. People that work in theses conditions such as prison guards, may be at the risk of death. The chances of this are slim, but it still does happen. When they take these jobs they know they're at risk, by that I don't mean it's their fault, because in NO way it is. A police officer takes the risk of being shot at when they meet up with an impaired driver, but most of the time nobody gets injured. Now a days escapes are rare, and if they do occur most of the time the prisoner is caught. For others that disagree they think that since lets say a murderer killed somebody else they dont deserve a life. This is the big issue. I totally agree with this, as much as it goes against my argument, I honestley dont think they deserve another second alive, but we have to be the ones that are right. Obviousley the saying "two wrongs dont make a right", isent being applyed. I know that the people who have experienced the death due to another's actions is so traumatic, and I can't even imagine the pain and agony. As much as you want that person dead, just think they don't have a life in prison, they have no direction in life, they have nothing. I said that execution is inhumane. I don't mean inhumane as it's bloody man slaughter, I meant it in the way that we're killing, and some how found a way to make it legal. It's illegal to kill, but we have found a legal way to kill by lethal injection. This argument can go both ways, but I know I only believe in one. So if I'm wrong then I'm damn sure I don't want to be right.
