Should we bring the death penalty back?

What are the peoples of this country so scared of bringing the death penalty back? Is it just for the classic Amelia Pond answer, which is that we have to be better than the murderer? Because that is the only slight knot in my little piece of string, to remind me you could put a knot in a piece of string to remind you, but it doesn't make any sense why do you have to be better than the mass murdering psychopath from outer space? Who killed himself anyway at the end of the episode, as you'd still be better than him by getting him killed as that would only mean that he's dead not all of the hundreds of people that he had killed on his home planet, as he had killed a whole species of Time Lords back on Gallifrey and then all of the native species to it also.

But then we have to also conclude that the Doctor is was already many times worse than the other alien doctor as he had destroyed many more worlds than i could count and then he has destroyed many more species but just because he's the hero and he some how almost manages to revert the universe back to it's default settings before the ending somehow absolves him of all destruction and  loss of life that he has caused but we mustn't forget all of the companions that he has lost/got killed throughout his long and blood soaked life, and we mustn't forget the one that is refusing to die but she should be dead, and this time I'm talking about rose Tyler not Captain Jack as we all should know what happened to him as the face of Boe to save New New York

And what's the point of death if you've got to live it over again?  Now a Christian may say the point of this life is to prepare you for the next as the next life is going to be eternal, which means without end (and without begging I thought, but I guess if it did it'd be a self defeating economy that they've got to face), but how could it possibly be, wouldn't an eternity of anything be a boring as hell even if it was heaven that you were in? I know it may seem all brand new to at the start but how long until that wears off, a day maybe two heck I don't know maybe you've got enough stuff to do that will last you a year, but then what's the point?

But the story that inspired me to write this Was the story about Tia Sharp's father calling for his daughter's murderer to be hung; which I have no problem wit, lets  make an example of him. A statement to the world everyone inside and out side of this country that we, the British public, have no longer got he patience or the money to lock someone up in prison for however long, on the grounds of that being an immoral way of execution but didn't he give up on morality when he decided to murder Tia?

Tia was 12 year old school girl with practically the whole of her life still ahead of her (literally it all minus the first 12) think of all of the now missed chances that she could have had, you could never have known what/who she  could have become she could have been, in the future a Nobel peace prize winning scientist, an emissary for world peace. or maybe she'd have taken on wither her mothers or fathers profession? But you can't know now as Mr Hazel has murdered her.
