I am all in favor of putting a 7.62mm hole through some POS's head when he deserves it. I am also against the State's use of the death penalty.
If you have been in and around government for ANY length of time you will know that the gov't fucks up daily.
Do you think that since the death penalty was re-instituted the State has not executed an innocent person? OK how about in the past 100 years, how many innocent people have been killed by the State?
ONLY if you believe the State is infallible could you be for the death penalty or you havn't thought it out long enough. Each year we hear of "convicts" being released because of DNA evidence or some other piece that comes to light. If those convicts had been killed, it would have been a bitch to try and free them.
Lock 'em in a very small box, throw away the key, feed 1x's a day, no internet, no cable tv, no magazines, just the bible, koran or torah to read. Shit that would be hella cheaper to boot vs. the hole 23 years on death row and 1.4million appeals.
Just a thought, got my Nomex G-string on prepared for the flame fest.
