"Okay, you killed someone, so to show you that you were wrong, we're going to kill you!" said the pro-capital punishment activist.

It's just flat out retarded. And all you that say that punishment should be dealt out, what exactly is the point of punishment? What does it do, especially if the punishment is death, in which case it's completely pointless. Isn't rotting in a jail cell for all of your life more punishing then being quickly and painlessly killed? Also what happens if you're wrong. You kill a guy for killing a guy and the next guy you find out the guy didn't kill a guy after all. What are you gonna tell the family of the guy who got killed (the executed guy)? "Sorry, we thought he did it." Atleast if he's in jail you can let him out.
