Eh... What we really need to do is come up with more accurate descriptions of the crime taking place. A human trafficker can be anything from someone helping a family fleeing a civil war to cross the border of another country illegally, to a grungy slaver that kidnaps people and forces heroin into their veins so they'll comply with sex work.
Someone smuggling paying clients over a border doesn't deserve the death penalty. Someone who kidnaps people and forces them into sex slavery isn't someone we want in society.

Not really. In a civilized world the only good reason to kill someone is self defense (or in defense of someone else). Someone who is incarcerated poses no threat to anyone. The only thing killing them would do is satisfy our urge to be uncivilized, which is what they did when they decided to be human traffickers. So, it's a power trip, gloating that our animal brain beat their animal brain. If were going to do that, fine, but we have to stop calling ourselves civilized.
I don’t want to be/feel responsible for who lives/dies so I do not support the death penalty in any case, but I definitely think they deserve some sort of physical punishment and a sentencing
Yes. A lot less evil if those fuckers were all dead.

Trafficking in human sex slavery, or if the trafficking leads to death, yes. As long as the evidence is incontrovertible, I say stake them out in the desert in the hot sun naked and let the bugs, vultures and coyotes have a feast.
No, the individuals who know they can't succeed without lying, cheating and stealing, that are bringing millions of people here illegally when we can't afford to take care of the ones we have now should face a firing squad.
No- but then, until a dead man can appeal, I can't in good conscience support the death penalty at all. Republicans don't care much about due process and Democrats are actively hostile towards it, so...
Real human traffickers who sell people like slaves should be executed
Yes, firing squad would be best. It will save millions on tax dollars.
Nah. They should get a penalty, but not the death penalty. Also, what sort of trafficking are we talking? Are we talking Mexicans? Or are we talking sex slaves?
In a world without false convictions? Yes.
I don't believe punishing a million guilty people is worth sentencing one innocent person to death.
It should be on the table, for sure. I don’t think any crime should be a mandatory death sentence, it should be done on a case by case basis.
No, they should be imprisoned.
Pedos should definitely be put to deathYup. Kill them all and let the birds have their decrepit carcasses.
What about human sex traffickers?
That is a massive goddamn understatement
Yes, kill them all and let God sort them out.
Yes - the sooner the better.
Them, rapist and pedophiles and kidnappers
Most likely yes.
Duh.
I would support it.
Not death penalty but lifetime sentences
Absolutely
