So what is the solution by this page: https://www.facebook.com/whenstatekills?
Is to let the people who kill other people walk free. ..go to jail relax...have a nice vacation and come out in 06 months or one or two years time and kill another person again?
If one person is given capital punishment...then people will realize, that killing another person has a price, which paid by their own life.
With increase of gangs, and wide distribution of drugs...killing now is a daily habit in the Maldives...which i never saw or heard of when i was a kid...
Case in point: One of the largest and most influential democracy in the world, the United States also has capital punishment enforced.
Crimes which goes unpunished over time creates a spiral of new cycle of crimes...
Killing without capital punishment will lead to an increase of crimes and killers over time.
Here is a list of sources, which says capital punishment or death penalty has proved to reduce crime rates:
1) Several studies have demonstrated a link between executions and decreases in murder rates.

2) Studies Say Death Penalty Deters Crime: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/06/11/AR2007061100406.html
Each execution deters an average of 18 murders, according to a 2003 nationwide study by professors at Emory University. (Other studies have estimated the deterred murders per execution at three, five and 14).
3) New wave of a dozen or more studies have appeared reporting deterrent effects of capital punishment that go well beyond Ehrlich's findings. The estimates of the deterrent effects are far greater, ranging from three to 32 murders deterred for each execution.
