So if it's summer in North America

Is it winter in South America?

Sorry, I can't into spherical planets rolling around in space.

Are there any planets that are NOT spheres?

Yeah, electroshock therapy and lobotomies are much better than killing or imprisoning people.

Life as a human is a very slow death penalty.
No. The point of the death penalty is to remove a criminal who cannot be reformed from society permanently. Life in prison does the exact same thing, but in a much less efficient way. It is no less cruel than simply killing the person.
