Why do prisoners get sad when they get the death penalty? - Donald Trump Jr. - Dec 23, 2016
I know I would rather get the death penalty then spend my life in jail, I cant imagine anyone else would think other wise.
You get a last meal whatever you want, literally WHATEVER you want and if the execution doesn't mess up the death is quick and fast.

I think it's more of a final answer type of thing. Sorta like a reality check.

I hear that after you spend your first year in jail, you get used to it.

If you were told exactly what day you were going to die and how you're going to die, you wouldn't get sad? I'd rather get the death penalty too but shit, I'd be sad.

If you're still alive there is always hope

You say that now but if someone told you that you were going to be killed you would probably freak too. You don't really think about it in detail too much until you are actually facing that situation.

This.
Plus, a life sentence doesn't really mean "in prison until death".

Hope for the next day of bars in your room, your trapped like a caged animal.

Bubba always gets what Bubba wants.

I can't imagine myself in a position like that but you must also consider the people who (rarely but honestly are) falsely accused waiting for some sort of hope. Also, every bit of connection w/ you friends, family, all the stress and success life brought, everything all to end. Not too pleasant.

I would much rather be living.

Depending on the prison, I'd still prefer to stay alive. Life is the most valuable thing in this world and unless the situation hasn't become completely unbearable, I'd want to hold on.
* - Mr. Robot - Dec 23, 2016
I would always hold onto some sort of hope, maybe the next president will change laws, maybe there's an incident and you get out? Maybe a zombie apocalypse happens and you get to live outside.
Who knows.
But really, you are talking about the day they get the death penalty compared to life in prison. You can still make friends in prison, and you can still enjoy your time there.

Like others said I think anybody know matter who they are or what they've done would be at-least a little bit sad knowing the exact day and way they're going to die.
