Why should we keep alive a person who is a danger to guards or even fellow prisoners?

Or someone who communicates with others outside of prison to conspire to murder?

Post #26 is my response on supermax relating to your above question. You asked about the prisoners who were a threat to others or guards. My response should have been solitary confinement. Supermax is reserved for the worst criminals today. And it was actually PN who first mentioned them in a post just a few before # 25. And I find it isn't moral to decide who lives or dies, and like I stated before, it is society's job to remove the threat from society. I don't see prison as torture, so to me it isn't immoral compared to the death penatly.
