What is the basis of this belief? 

As long as we're throwing out unsupported beliefs, here is mine: I think that if you treat people like animals, they will act like animals.

E Cooper,
 
Dead on the money, Mr. Cooper.  It's nutty of libs to say, gosh,  America has 
the death penalty and has a high rate of violent crime so that  proves the 
death penalty does not deter.
 
Wrongo.  Americas application of the death penalty is a farce for the  
reasons you sited.  Were we to apply it in a timely and realistic manner,  violent 
crime would plummet accordingly.
 
Keep trying to introduce Moscow's criminal lovers to reality.  I  won't be 
holding my breath waiting for them to get it right, however.  With  them it's 
emotions first, reason second if ever.
