To those that are wondering why Japan doesn't tell its prisoners when their execution date: They used to, but then one morning a prisoner committed suicide before the execution could be carried out.
“There are three deaths. The first is when the body ceases to function. The second is when the body is consigned to the grave. The third is that moment, sometime in the future, when your name is spoken for the last time.” ― David M. Eagleman
I served 3 years in prison. Mentally I never really struggled because I knew exactly what day I was walking out of that place. I kept busy and worked a lot. But I could never understand how the guys in there doing life could get up every day and smile at all. Knowing the day they leave that place is the day they die and they're gonna be carried out in a box. I truly think I'd find a way to unalive myself. I couldn't do it
I would assume a lot of the people on death row are a bit insane (obviously, they weren't legally declared, but you know what I mean). Some of them want to die, and some are just bored from sitting in prison.
prison alone seems like well from what my friend tells me, he works as aguard and says hes seen people die and he could only wait for backup hes seen people reped and very rarely suicide, its truly a scary thought.
3 & a half years, and except for having my sentence extended, I always had a release date.. Well, I was on remand for 6 months, but I always knew the absolute maximum sentence would be 13 years, do half.. I ended up getting 6, but had extra days, but never struggled because of the date.
“He wakes up every day not knowing if it’s his last” Um... yeah, so does everyone, bruh... EDIT: Wow, didn't expect this joke turn into such a divisive issue, or get even a single like. Reminder: Love one another!
Also worth noting in the US, you can voluntarily drop your appeals and request an execution date to be scheduled. These "volunteer executions" make up about 10% of executions in the States. Effectively giving them a free suicide via lethal injection instead of waiting on death row for 30 years
In Japan, prisoners were informed of the date and time of their execution prior to execution until the 1970s. However, due to a number of suicides by executed prisoners prior to execution, the practice was changed to informing prisoners several hours prior to execution.
In japan, if you are a foreigner, its mandatory to keep a permit at all times while you are living here. I know a japanese guy who the police didnt like so they took him to jail for "not carrying a foreign permit", accusing him of being a foreigner since he couldn't prove at that time he wasnt a foreigner. They finally let him go when he could cite a japanese poem that all elementary school kids had to learn. Edit: based on some comments, it seems like the law was abolished in 2012.
If that was me, I would probably be in jail. I don't even remember the face of my elementary teachers, much less if I learned any poetry there. That guy should at least give his teacher an big juicy apple (or whatever they give to their teachers)
Cite*, not site. Don't mean to nitpick but thought you might like to know that cite is the correct word in this instance. Interesting information by the way!
One GIANT difference in the death penalty between both countries starts in the sentencing. In Japan they would NEVER hessitate to execute a mass shooter.
I mean if we want to operate like that then we have to make it ok for citizens to use 2a even if the person who is the threat is running away from them or their property. It's only fair.
That's one change about the death penalty that I'm all for. If the person is without a doubt found guilty, for example they have video and overwhelming evidence of them commiting an act worthy of death, then they should be executed immediately, or in a reasonable time frame.
When I went to court to give my statement as the victim I had multiple court dates and questioning… one of those cops who questioned me seemed to use my high anxiety and PTSD against me. He was informed that anything I said under stress is less reliable because my memory gets blurry and my senses are impaired. He knew that yet he asked the most important questions only after stressing me out. He used body language and tone to intimidate me. Luckily that was his only time questioning me and I was able to report him and explain this so it never affected the case.
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.” John 3:14-21 NKJV

@@MsHarbirsingh most people on death row have been there for years, in some cases before the use of DNA evidence. People sentenced to death with DNA evidence are almost certainly guilty.
knowing Japan, they’ve been famous for their high suicide rates, kamikaze attacks and banzai charges, you know these people have different views about death.
I’m surprised that it wasn’t mentioned that Utah allows firing squad because Mormon theology teaches you must have your blood shed if you are executed for a crime. So it’s actually an option that takes the person’s religious beliefs into consideration.

I remember watching the news with my Japanese wife at the time of Timothy McVey's execution, and she was so upset that they were calling him "Mr. McVey". In Japan if you're a murderer, you don't get the honour of being called "Mr." anymore.
@@alukuhito yeh some people aren't "human". There's certain characteristics that are lacking in severly violent criminals - the thought that everyone can be rehabilitated is asinine.
TheAllSeeingEye there’s been multiple examples in the USA where a death row inmate is executed and years later with better dna testing they’ve found out they were innocent. Nevermind the millions of tax dollars
There was a very strange feature in this case, strange because of its extremely rare occurrence. This man had once been brought to the scaffold in company with several others, and had had the sentence of death by shooting passed upon him for some political crime. Twenty minutes later he had been reprieved and some other punishment substituted; but the interval between the two sentences, twenty minutes, or at least a quarter of an hour, had been passed in the certainty that within a few minutes he must die. I was very anxious to hear him speak of his impressions during that dreadful time, and I several times inquired of him as to what he thought and felt. He remembered everything with the most accurate and extraordinary distinctness, and declared that he would never forget a single iota of the experience. ‘About twenty paces from the scaffold, where he had stood to hear the sentence, were three posts, fixed in the ground, to which to fasten the criminals (of whom there were several). The first three criminals were taken to the posts, dressed in long white tunics, with white caps drawn over their faces, so that they could not see the rifles pointed at them. Then a group of soldiers took their stand opposite to each post. My friend was the eighth on the list, and therefore he would have been among the third lot to go up. A priest went about among them with a cross: and there was about five minutes of time left for him to live. ‘He said that those five minutes seemed to him to be a most interminable period, an enormous wealth of time; he seemed to be living, in these minutes, so many lives that there was no need as yet to think of that last moment, so that he made several arrangements, dividing up the time into portions-one for saying farewell to his companions, two minutes for that; then a couple more for thinking over his own life and career and all about himself; and another minute for a last look around. He remembered having divided his time like this quite well. While saying good- bye to his friends he recollected asking one of them some very usual everyday question, and being much interested in the answer. Then having bade farewell, he embarked upon those two minutes which he had allotted to looking into himself; he knew beforehand what he was going to think about. He wished to put it to himself as quickly and clearly as possible, that here was he, a living, thinking man, and that in three minutes he would be nobody; or if somebody or something, then what and where? He thought he would decide this question once for all in these last three minutes. A little way off there stood a church, and its gilded spire glittered in the sun. He remembered staring stubbornly at this spire, and at the rays of light sparkling from it. He could not tear his eyes from these rays of light; he got the idea that these rays were his new nature, and that in three minutes he would become one of them, amalgamated somehow with them. ‘The repugnance to what must ensue almost immediately, and the uncertainty, were dreadful, he said; but worst of all was the idea, ‘What should I do if I were not to die now? What if I were to return to life again? What an eternity of days, and all mine! How I should grudge and count up every minute of it, so as to waste not a single instant!’ He said that this thought weighed so upon him and became such a terrible burden upon his brain that he could not bear it, and wished they would shoot him quickly and have done with it.’
Person 1: would you like to hear a joke about prisoners who have been spending years in death row? Person 2: Yes Person 1: never mind, I'm still having problems with the execution.
There is one inaccurate statement in this video. When given lethal injection it is similar to Japan where three seperate people push plungers from the oppisite side of a wall. So no one knows if they were the one who ultimately carried out the death sentence. This may not be widely known but I just thought it may give some people peace of mind
The separate plungers aren't so people can believe they didn't do it, each plunger contains a different chemical. The first renders the inmate unconscious, the second is a muscle relaxant (it even stops the breathing), and the third is to stop the heart
Regarding not having peace of mind... Dropping the bomb on Japan meant the executioner who pressed the button knew exactly who he murdered. The photos and stories of the victims were his doings directly... Unlike being one of many conventional bombers.. or part of a firing squad where there's a chance he had the blank.
"Imagine a prisoner sitting in a solitary confinement waiting to die, he has no idea when it will happen But he knows its inevitable" ... I mean aren't we all like this?
I mean I'm not waiting to die. I'm just enjoying life. You can't have fun in prison. Besides we have years maybe decades left to live. These prisoners have only a few days or weeks
Guess what, the UN is made up of countries, which means anything that happens there is the fault of the countries. The fact that China and Iran have appeared on the HRC means they were approved by other countries. The organization isn’t to blame, the countries that voted for them to be allowed are.
"A prisoner waits on death row...imagine the fear, the anxiety" You mean like the fear and anxiety the people they murdered felt? Of course the US has more executions. We have almost 3x the population of japan. The problem is that the US has prisoners on death row for 30 years.
Much of what you said is exactly what I muttered while watching this video. Great observations👍🏼 Gotta love the not-so-hidden agenda of informative videos.
You're right I wish they would bring up these points in this video. They are trying to make it out like the US is trying to find random people and execute them.
Agree! I was appalled when they were talking about how "harsh" the prison system is. Why should I care about the harshness these people have to deal with? They are murderers and rapists!
@@kadi5643 Um, they misspelled 80s, but it's a perfectly reasonable presumption, that you're more likely to die in advanced age, than in your youth. Sure. You can die at any age, but when does it become likely? If a 9-year-old doesn't wake up one morning, it's atypical. As would it be for a 190-year-old to live to the next day.
isnt imprisoning them for 50 years on death row missing the point? the death penalty should be issued for people who got proven to be guilty beyond a sliver of a doubt and/or if they confessed on their own accord, so that the state doesnt have to waste money for decades on keeping someone alive that will never see the outside world again.
The problem here in the US is that we can’t trust our police to do their job correctly. Many cops have tunnel vision, and confirmation bias. They only take into consideration the evidence that fits their theory. Exculpatory evidence is not released in discovery. Some cops have planted evidence. Then you have the district attorneys who only care about their conviction rate and being re-elected and could care less about the truth and justice. They use junk science, jailhouse snitches to lie, and pressure witnesses to ID the suspect they want them to ID. High profile cases put so much pressure on them, that they need to arrest and convict someone, even if it’s not the right someone. This is why death sentences should not be handed down lightly or quickly. To protect the innocent that should have been protected by police in the first place. You are not innocent until proven guilty. You are guilty until proven innocent.

@@captainoblivious_yt dude, he's talking about the terrorists in Guantanamo bay prision. They basically are guilty without trial. (To be fair they prob. are guilty)
@@jayy7842 It's still ridiculous to claim that "Only some people are innocent until proven guilty" if you can just give me one case of the opposite being true.
I just have to say it’s a fact that not all interrogations in the US are monitored. While not every suspect is necessarily physically tortured they are psychologically manipulated and I can tell you from experience it’s not a fair process and they care more about securing a prosecution then getting to the truth. As far as the Japanese side the judges are the jury and a couple years ago they started bringing jurors in but the judges are still primarily the jury
“There are only 2 first world democracies that execute their own citizens.....” Singaporeans be like: “ Are we not a first world country or are we not a democracy???!!!”
I was thinking the same thing. But I guess the democracy there is more limited, with more restrictions on speech, assembly, press, etc, compared to Western countries.
With how few people are on death row, I can't really see a reason to actually put them to death. There are too many stories of innocent people being incarcerated. At least if they're just given life in prison, we can release them if we learn they aren't guilty.

You missed the point. 99% conviction rate? You up to 23 days of unrecorded questioning?? I’m almost positive there’s a lot of innocent people incarcerated in Japan after hearing this.
*Don’t be arrested by a cop who then proceeds to frame you with torture and other supremely evil methods, you mean. It’s easy bro just don’t be an easy target
One of the reasons Japan still has and uses the death penalty is because they do not have a "life sentence". If you are sentenced, you are sentenced for a finite amount of time, and you have a release date -- the maximum, I think, being 25 years. If they're going to remove the death penalty, you'll find it will be only if they can all agree to impose a life sentence instead.
Indeed, there are some individuals that should not be put back into the public, so this is one reason I don't think anyone should have a problem with it. I'll bet they punish fewer innocent people than America too, just because they're pretty much better at everything and I'll bet that includes investigation.
@@medexamtoolscom I’d argue the US has better investigations, based only on the fact that they are more monitored by law. Also, Japan, while better at some things, are not superior to the US in “everything”, and I’d argue a lot of things. That take kinda just sounds like Xenophobia to me.
Kinda surprised by the measures taken to trick executioners into believing they could possibly not be responsible for the death of a person. The fact that there has to be some kind of coping mechanism to deal with the fact that they are killing someone, is admission by guilt that they know they are doing something wrong. Yet, they do it regardless. Also the Japanese law enforcement agencies and justice systems sound like a dystopian night terror. This isn’t even the first thing I’ve heard about the Japanese authorities that are shocking, so I’m not even surprised.
The Japanese kind of skip the whole offering forgiveness and being “nice” once sent to death and just get it over with it seems. I think that’s actually the more humane way to be honest. Considering In US when sentenced to death you will almost always serve nearly a decade in jail before, often a couple decades. Leaving you rotting in jail trying to fight the eventual outcome like a fatally wounded animal but just for years on end. Then for your execution to have a visual audience and then talked about all around the US. Very hard choice. Tbh I think I’ll just try not to ever get sentenced to death seems easier
"If proven innocent" Sadly, that's how it is, despite the claim that it's, "Proven guilty". It's also ridiculously difficult to prove innocence. There's also the whole, "If the state wants you to die, you will *always* fail every appeal." At least, so long as it's the state that you appeal to and not some competing third party (which at this time does not exist, the state exerting a complete monopoly over the vast majority of our lives and choices).
Not necessarily. (In)Justice Systems the world over, all throughout history, are notorious for things like claiming "innocent until proven guilty" but really meaning "guilty until proven innocent" (Japan doesn't even bother with the first half of that, though and just admits that you're guilty unless proven innocent). It's common for people to be convicted because the state is "pretty sure" they're guilty (and juries, being made up of carefully selected peasants that will abide by the state's wishes, obviously tend to go along with the state). That's a far cry from "proven guilty", regardless of what state propaganda the world over, and all throughout history, claims.
EXACTLY!!! AMEN!!! THANK YOU!!! i pretty much commented the same thing except the fact that those on deathrow did somethin so horrific that they earned theirself a spot there and deserve every second of misery and pain they feel before their execution....
You speak the *TRUTH* because I honestly don't care about the person who committed these crimes.. I care about the *VICTIMS* who did nothing wrong but at the same time were literally *MURDERED* by these said inmates...🙄 They have zero voices, (the victims) because they got murdered by these animals!! 🤬
Death Sentence is absolutely barbaric and out of date. It shows that if you treat prisoners well and try to rehabilitate them into society that it has a bigger success rate than the Death Sentance. I would be happier that the prisoner has to live with his consequences than to take the easy way out

In the US the accused can waive their right to a lawyer but this is rare” Huh? Have you ever seen the First 48?! Virtually no one asks for a attorney and try to explain their case to the cops 😂😂😂
A surprisingly high number of people in the US do not know their rights when it comes to interacting with the police, and the police as an institution have no interest in telling you. The Miranda rights (named for Ernesto Miranda, whose false and inadmissible confession was secured because he did not know his rights) were made mandatory in 1966 for police to give arrested citizens, but if it wasn't mandatory, they wouldn't, and being Mirandized is *not enough* to inform a person of their rights as an American citizen suspected of a crime. Their rights before, during and after initial arrest are not common knowledge, and they do not all fit in a Miranda brief.
@@rachelfox8108 Furthermore, police may suggest that a lawyer is a mistake, which falls under "legitimate deception" or they may imply that the person is a witness, not a suspect, thereby evading the technical need, in their mind, to Mirandize (forgetting that mental reservation obviates an assertion). Sometimes, after that, the Miranda waiver form is hastily given to the excited person. The Armed Forces warning is more in line with the true rights: You have the right to say nothing, without prejudice against you. If you say anything, it may be used to prosecute you. You have the right to counsel, during questioning and any other proceedings. We will provide counsel, or you may get your own. If you decide to give up the right to silence, you may change your mind and stop talking at any time. If you do, we cannot make you talk again, and you do not have to talk to us anymore. Honestly, since waiving Miranda is so consequential, legal counsel ought to be mandatory before an arrestee can agree to talk.
When I got interrogated there was no third party and as far as I know no camera. I love what people who have never been incarcerated thinks of our justice system.
It’s “Shocking” that the USA executes soooo many more prisoners than Japan. Uh...but you just said that the USA has many times more criminals per 100,000 citizens, and of course it’s got many times more citizens than Japan. What’s shocking is that the USA doesn’t execute far more than they do. Also, in your graphic, you SAY that most people in USA approve of the death penalty, but the graphic shows two to one thumbs down disapproval of the death penalty. I’d say it’s obvious what side of the issue you are on.
What a terrifying ordeal this poor death row person goes through. Wonder what his victims went through. What age, what torture methods, what crimes were they guilty of, etc.
@@TheInnerPact Just so you know, I was a prison guard on death row in Texas. We didn't inflict any pain or suffering as a punishment. The inmates were fed, clothed, housed and they even got to watch tv which was hung outside on the wall. They got a shower and a little time in the day room each day to recreate. They had commissary and other items of property. They had daily visits during the week from family. I'm serious, they were not inflicted with any pain or suffering outside of the loss of freedom and the knowledge that they would be executed one day. That's it.

I mean if we want to operate like that then we have to make it ok for citizens to use 2a even if the person who is the threat is running away from them or their property. It's only fair.
That's one change about the death penalty that I'm all for. If the person is without a doubt found guilty, for example they have video and overwhelming evidence of them commiting an act worthy of death, then they should be executed immediately, or in a reasonable time frame.
@MarcusDelph mostly because they only execute guilty people.

When I went to court to give my statement as the victim I had multiple court dates and questioning… one of those cops who questioned me seemed to use my high anxiety and PTSD against me. He was informed that anything I said under stress is less reliable because my memory gets blurry and my senses are impaired. He knew that yet he asked the most important questions only after stressing me out. He used body language and tone to intimidate me. Luckily that was his only time questioning me and I was able to report him and explain this so it never affected the case.

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.”

There was a very strange feature in this case, strange because of its extremely rare occurrence. This man had once been brought to the scaffold in company with several others, and had had the sentence of death by shooting passed upon him for some political crime. Twenty minutes later he had been reprieved and some other punishment substituted; but the interval between the two sentences, twenty minutes, or at least a quarter of an hour, had been passed in the certainty that within a few minutes he must die. I was very anxious to hear him speak of his impressions during that dreadful time, and I several times inquired of him as to what he thought and felt. He remembered everything with the most accurate and extraordinary distinctness, and declared that he would never forget a single iota of the experience. ‘About twenty paces from the scaffold, where he had stood to hear the sentence, were three posts, fixed in the ground, to which to fasten the criminals (of whom there were several). The first three criminals were taken to the posts, dressed in long white tunics, with white caps drawn over their faces, so that they could not see the rifles pointed at them. Then a group of soldiers took their stand opposite to each post. My friend was the eighth on the list, and therefore he would have been among the third lot to go up. A priest went about among them with a cross: and there was about five minutes of time left for him to live. ‘He said that those five minutes seemed to him to be a most interminable period, an enormous wealth of time; he seemed to be living, in these minutes, so many lives that there was no need as yet to think of that last moment, so that he made several arrangements, dividing up the time into portions-one for saying farewell to his companions, two minutes for that; then a couple more for thinking over his own life and career and all about himself; and another minute for a last look around. He remembered having divided his time like this quite well. While saying good- bye to his friends he recollected asking one of them some very usual everyday question, and being much interested in the answer. Then having bade farewell, he embarked upon those two minutes which he had allotted to looking into himself; he knew beforehand what he was going to think about. He wished to put it to himself as quickly and clearly as possible, that here was he, a living, thinking man, and that in three minutes he would be nobody; or if somebody or something, then what and where? He thought he would decide this question once
for all in these last three minutes. A little way off there stood a church, and its gilded spire glittered in the sun. He remembered staring stubbornly at this spire, and at the rays of light sparkling from it. He could not tear his eyes from these rays of light; he got the idea that these rays were his new nature, and that in three minutes he would become one of them, amalgamated somehow with them. ‘The repugnance to what must ensue almost immediately, and the uncertainty, were dreadful, he said; but worst of all was the idea, ‘What should I do if I were not to die now? What if I were to return to life again? What an eternity of days, and all mine! How I should grudge and count up every minute of it, so as to waste not a single instant!’ He said that this thought weighed so upon him and became such a terrible burden upon his brain that he could not bear it, and wished they would shoot him quickly and have done with it.’

There is one inaccurate statement in this video. When given lethal injection it is similar to Japan where three seperate people push plungers from the oppisite side of a wall. So no one knows if they were the one who ultimately carried out the death sentence. This may not be widely known but I just thought it may give some people peace of mind
Thought the Japanese used hanging?
@@oneoflokis they use hanging, injection and firing squad.
The separate plungers aren't so people can believe they didn't do it, each plunger contains a different chemical. The first renders the inmate unconscious, the second is a muscle relaxant (it even stops the breathing), and the third is to stop the heart
Regarding not having peace of mind...

isnt imprisoning them for 50 years on death row missing the point? the death penalty should be issued for people who got proven to be guilty beyond a sliver of a doubt and/or if they confessed on their own accord, so that the state doesnt have to waste money for decades on keeping someone alive that will never see the outside world again.
It seems like unnecessary torture when the only reapn they probably confessed was torture in thwe first place
Well in the us the take a while Because all the appeals that they put in knowing they guilty just to muck up the system
The problem here in the US is that we can’t trust our police to do their job correctly. Many cops have tunnel vision, and confirmation bias. They only take into consideration the evidence that fits their theory. Exculpatory evidence is not released in discovery. Some cops have planted evidence. Then you have the district attorneys who only care about their conviction rate and being re-elected and could care less about the truth and justice. They use junk science, jailhouse snitches to lie, and pressure witnesses to ID the suspect they want them to ID. High profile cases put so much pressure on them, that they need to arrest and convict someone, even if it’s not the right someone. This is why death sentences should not be handed down lightly or quickly. To protect the innocent that should have been protected by police in the first place. You are not innocent until proven guilty. You are guilty until proven innocent.
Did you know life in prison is less expensive than executions in the US?
I think you deserve a life in prison if you confess.

Spot on, mate!
*Don’t be arrested by a cop who then proceeds to frame you with torture and other supremely evil methods, you mean. It’s easy bro just don’t be an easy target
One of the reasons Japan still has and uses the death penalty is because they do not have a "life sentence". If you are sentenced, you are sentenced for a finite amount of time, and you have a release date -- the maximum, I think, being 25 years. If they're going to remove the death penalty, you'll find it will be only if they can all agree to impose a life sentence instead.
Even the US has life sentences
Indeed, there are some individuals that should not be put back into the public, so this is one reason I don't think anyone should have a problem with it. I'll bet they punish fewer innocent people than America too, just because they're pretty much better at everything and I'll bet that includes investigation.
@@medexamtoolscom I’d argue the US has better investigations, based only on the fact that they are more monitored by law. Also, Japan, while better at some things, are not superior to the US in “everything”, and I’d argue a lot of things. That take kinda just sounds like Xenophobia to me.
@@medexamtoolscom better than America at everything? That’s funny because I could have sworn it was us who dropped atomic bombs on them…
@@medexamtoolscom You just said the stupidest thing I've read in quite a while. Thank you for the laughs.
Kinda surprised by the measures taken to trick executioners into believing they could possibly not be responsible for the death of a person. The fact that there has to be some kind of coping mechanism to deal with the fact that they are killing someone, is admission by guilt that they know they are doing something wrong. Yet, they do it regardless.
Also the Japanese law enforcement agencies and justice systems sound like a dystopian night terror. This isn’t even the first thing I’ve heard about the Japanese authorities that are shocking, so I’m not even surprised.
other then self defense cant see killing someone
The Japanese kind of skip the whole offering forgiveness and being “nice” once sent to death and just get it over with it seems.
I think that’s actually the more humane way to be honest. Considering In US when sentenced to death you will almost always serve nearly a decade in jail before, often a couple decades. Leaving you rotting in jail trying to fight the eventual outcome like a fatally wounded animal but just for years on end. Then for your execution to have a visual audience and then talked about all around the US.
Very hard choice. Tbh I think I’ll just try not to ever get sentenced to death seems easier
Although in the rare instance when you are sentenced but innocent you can possibly get your freedom if proven innocent
I would rather be sentenced to death rather than life in prison.
"If proven innocent"
Sadly, that's how it is, despite the claim that it's, "Proven guilty".
It's also ridiculously difficult to prove innocence.
There's also the whole, "If the state wants you to die, you will *always* fail every appeal." At least, so long as it's the state that you appeal to and not some competing third party (which at this time does not exist, the state exerting a complete monopoly over the vast majority of our lives and choices).
@@notyou2353 yeah it's really hard to prove yourself innocent, BUT YOU WERE PROVEN GUILTY BEFORE THAT. STOP BEING A SNAKE.
Not necessarily. (In)Justice Systems the world over, all throughout history, are notorious for things like claiming "innocent until proven guilty" but really meaning "guilty until proven innocent" (Japan doesn't even bother with the first half of that, though and just admits that you're guilty unless proven innocent).
It's common for people to be convicted because the state is "pretty sure" they're guilty (and juries, being made up of carefully selected peasants that will abide by the state's wishes, obviously tend to go along with the state). That's a far cry from "proven guilty", regardless of what state propaganda the world over, and all throughout history, claims.

We all say we’re tough and bad but in all honesty idk how these don’t just scare you to stay down the right path
I wonder if the victims of these prisoners knew it was their last day? Did hey suffer fear and anxiety? Sounds like justice to me
Best answer yet, Kenneth.
EXACTLY!!! AMEN!!! THANK YOU!!! i pretty much commented the same thing except the fact that those on deathrow did somethin so horrific that they earned theirself a spot there and deserve every second of misery and pain they feel before their execution....
Lemme guess ur american?
You speak the *TRUTH* because I honestly don't care about the person who committed these crimes..
I care about the *VICTIMS* who did nothing wrong but at the same time were literally *MURDERED* by these said inmates...🙄
They have zero voices, (the victims) because they got murdered by these animals!! 🤬
Death Sentence is absolutely barbaric and out of date. It shows that if you treat prisoners well and try to rehabilitate them into society that it has a bigger success rate than the Death Sentance. I would be happier that the prisoner has to live with his consequences than to take the easy way out
Hi Infographics Show,
I've been reading a little about the current conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia over a disputed piece of land. I was wondering if you could please do a military comparison between the two nations.
Thanks, Bhargav
Is easy, one nation has the backing of many gigantic Islamic nations and can't run out of money as long as turkey and UAE is pumping millions into it, the other is a country filled with strong men used to these odds. ARMENIAN SOLIDARITY🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲
@@candiedcrusader7841 UAE is official ally of Armenia and no one is pumping money. I'm in army here Azerbaijan. Our soldiers are Azerbaijani citizen not Syrians or Turkish. Whenever you can't bring the wrist down, don't make any excuse that enemy's hand is big or greasy.
@@huseynbalagurbanl1655 yeah sure, it's almost like the azeri have said that for years and years and have said that every time there has a been a border incident or all out war between the two nations, and it's almost like every single time it's been a lie, and the UAE has only been an "official ally" since we became friends with the USA, their main importer of their oil

In the US the accused can waive their right to a lawyer but this is rare” Huh? Have you ever seen the First 48?! Virtually no one asks for a attorney and try to explain their case to the cops 😂😂😂
A surprisingly high number of people in the US do not know their rights when it comes to interacting with the police, and the police as an institution have no interest in telling you. The Miranda rights (named for Ernesto Miranda, whose false and inadmissible confession was secured because he did not know his rights) were made mandatory in 1966 for police to give arrested citizens, but if it wasn't mandatory, they wouldn't, and being Mirandized is *not enough* to inform a person of their rights as an American citizen suspected of a crime. Their rights before, during and after initial arrest are not common knowledge, and they do not all fit in a Miranda brief.
@@rachelfox8108 Furthermore, police may suggest that a lawyer is a mistake, which falls under "legitimate deception" or they may imply that the person is a witness, not a suspect, thereby evading the technical need, in their mind, to Mirandize (forgetting that mental reservation obviates an assertion). Sometimes, after that, the Miranda waiver form is hastily given to the excited person.
The Armed Forces warning is more in line with the true rights: You have the right to say nothing, without prejudice against you. If you say anything, it may be used to prosecute you. You have the right to counsel, during questioning and any other proceedings. We will provide counsel, or you may get your own. If you decide to give up the right to silence, you may change your mind and stop talking at any time. If you do, we cannot make you talk again, and you do not have to talk to us anymore.
Honestly, since waiving Miranda is so consequential, legal counsel ought to be mandatory before an arrestee can agree to talk.
When I got interrogated there was no third party and as far as I know no camera. I love what people who have never been incarcerated thinks of our justice system.

A third party can be allowed, however.
It’s “Shocking” that the USA executes soooo many more prisoners than Japan. Uh...but you just said that the USA has many times more criminals per 100,000 citizens, and of course it’s got many times more citizens than Japan. What’s shocking is that the USA doesn’t execute far more than they do. Also, in your graphic, you SAY that most people in USA approve of the death penalty, but the graphic shows two to one thumbs down disapproval of the death penalty. I’d say it’s obvious what side of the issue you are on.
Also American has 3 times the population of Japan so the executions per capita are about the same
Yes, we get it, you're a savage who thinks it's great that the state murders people regardless of whether or not they're really guilty.
@@aq5426 Yes, we get it, you’re a savage who thinks murderers should get to live while their victims don’t
@@aq5426 i wish the people being executed had that kinda sympathy for the peoples lives they destroyed.
These people clearly don't understand how "per capita" works
There seems to be Too Much Sympathy for Criminals. These People who Commit these crimes; Deserve what they Have Coming. 🌷
What a terrifying ordeal this poor death row person goes through. Wonder what his victims went through. What age, what torture methods, what crimes were they guilty of, etc.
If they did something that bad, they deserve torture. In fact I think we need to make these deaths painful so people will not wanna do it
@@PychPmp in my opinion, anyone who purposefully kills someone, not in self-defense, should be executed

So that one guy spent 50 years in solitary confinement? I don’t know how someone could even go back t9 adjusting to normal life after that.
Death Row theoretically is designed to inflict pain and suffering as a punishment for what has been done.
No it's not. It's designed to house you until you are executed. That's it.
@@danroberts9050 in institutional terms you are correct. This is a multi factorial phenomenon. Thank you for your input!
@@TheInnerPact Just so you know, I was a prison guard on death row in Texas. We didn't inflict any pain or suffering as a punishment. The inmates were fed, clothed, housed and they even got to watch tv which was hung outside on the wall. They got a shower and a little time in the day room each day to recreate. They had commissary and other items of property. They had daily visits during the week from family. I'm serious, they were not inflicted with any pain or suffering outside of the loss of freedom and the knowledge that they would be executed one day. That's it.
Love how he tried to make people feel bad for these people in the beginning when they deserve the pain and fear and anything bad that happens to them while on death row, and they deserve worse deaths than a hanging or other ways
I don't think he tried to make people feel bad, he's just sharing the truth
True but sometimes people get on deathrow and we're not guilty.
Unsurprising that you can barely string an eligible sentence together.
Not enough for you that they are put to death, you get off on them suffering. Who is the friggin monster?
@@nickacelvn those people made their victims and they're families suffer, they deserve the same, it's pathetic to just lock them in jail, it's really pathetic our whole justice system, almost 80% of prisoners go back to prison within 5 years, thy don't change, having a much harsher sentence stops that, you know what happens to people in persay Venezuela when they steal, they lose fingers and learn their lesson, I agree with that
@@nickacelvn who knows if we brought back public hangings for murderers and rapists a lot of other people would question their decision to commit those crimes
