Propostion 34

Proposition 34 is California's death penalty, for all practical purposes, is not a death penalty. It is an expensive procedure that sucks up millions of dollars in public funds that takes care of certain types of inmates who are more likely to die of old age than from lethal injection. It doesn’t really show a real point of justice just that they will be killed instead of serving there time to the community.
I am against and for Proposition 34, I am for it because it will replace California's death penalty with life in prison, without possibility of parole I think a good reason why I would support prop 34 is because it would eliminate the possibility of wrongful executions. It is very important that law be served and I personally believe that proposition 34 would eliminate wrongful trials. I also believe that death penalty is a little ridiculous because that person that has committed a crime isn’t serving his or her time to society there being executed and what if they had already planned that as what they wanted after committing the crime then they get what they wanted.
I am also against proposition 34 because it is very expensive. Proposition 34 is very uneconomical. The death penalty costs more, in terms of trial fees, costs of incarceration and appeals processes, than does life without the possibility of parole. Personally I believe that it is not worth it because the money that is being wasted on criminal’s people that don’t deserve that money can be used on other things instead. For example the money being wasted can be used on taxes or other things truly needed maybe even better living conditions for the criminals and better food.
If I were 18 I wouldn’t really know how to vote for it because I would need to have more information right now im in the middle because it gives a lot of good reasons why I should vote for and why I should vote against.

Middle Ages

I am a house wife. I live in the middle of no where in a big house. I have three kids and I am happily married. My husband and I met 25 years ago at a horse show. He was very caring and he was a gentleman. He treats me with respect and he is very loyal and loving. My kids are 15, 11, and 9 years old.
I do not work because I am a stay at home wife. The challenges I face on a daily basis are having to take care of my three kids and having to keep the house clean at all times. I also face challenges like having to have three meals on the table everyday for my kids and my husband. I don’t really feel a certain way about the world since I live in an isolated area. My kids and I rarely go out since my kids are home schooled and I am a stay at home wife and mother. I don’t have military training but my husband does.
Plans I have for the future are to be able to give my kids a good life and be able to let go of them for when its time for them to go off to college. I have plans for my kids to be something in life because even though I love being a house wife and stay at home mother I would have wished to make something of my life and I would have wanted to have a career of my own. I value honesty; honesty is a big thing with my family. My kids know that lying is a bad and is not permitted in my house they know that honesty is the best policy. And that’s a little something of my life.
