| I agree with some of the others here like Wrachel and Poop pants. First, before the state gets in the murder business, they should be sure that the to be executed is in fact guilty.
It is a matter of public record that many (I think the last count was 27 confirmed) innocents were Murdered by the state before to 1990. Many more were on death row awaiting murder by the state when exonerated by new evidence such as DNA.
Most Americans want revenge, not justice. The death penalty is not only barbaric it is makes the supporters as guilty as the perpetrators, or non perpetrators, that they wish to condemn! |
