Safety is one of the bases for society to function and thrive in an orderly manner. It provides individuals with a sense of peace and justice. Capital punishment doesn’t only make it safer for the guards but the inmates too. You always hear stories of inmates being stabbed and shanked. If a criminal has the urge to always kill, like these mass murders do then how are they going to control it in prison? You will not be able to control it, you can isolate them for so long but that just gives them time to think of a way to commit these serious crimes while in prison. If the death penalty was in place guards and inmates would not always have to fear for their lives. The usage of the death penalty helps ensure this safety to prisoners. Crime interferes with this sense of wellbeing and is why these violent individuals must be punished
