I think that the death penalty should at least be an option for inmates. I would definitely choose it after a while if I was locked up for life with no chance of freedom.

Law says who lives or dies in this kind of situation. And law is needed in order for society to remain out of chaos.
And please be realistic, if everyone you knew was killed, you would certainly want to have revenge.
