Didn't read the whole article, but here's my opinion:

If they can prove someone is without doubt, defiantly the murderer (in 1st
degree) then, I have absolutely nothing against the death penalty. It may
not bring the victim back, but hey, if someone decides someone else doesn't
deserve to live, there's no reason they should be allowed to.

What I am against though, is the fact that half the people on death row,
probably didn't commit the murder, but were just unlucky enough to be at the
wrong place at the wrong time, or too poor to afford a decent lawyer.
Or, those who just admit to doing things, even when they didn't do it, after
all the stress from the questioning.

But other then that, if someone is guilty beyond all doubt (like, they got
it on video tape), then let them die.

Might seam barbaric, or whatever, but hey, that's just my view on things. I
don't see why people should feel any sympathy for people who kill.

oh, and for an example, read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hi-Fi_Murders

now, you saying people like that do not deserve to die?
of course, unless I misunderstood the article, and it was more about the
innocent people, then the death sentence itself. then never mind

Black people and mentally challenged people in texas with only small amounts
of evidence are different from normal people SWE, you don't need the same
amount of evidence for it to be morally ok to kill them. Bush is a direct
conduit to god and KNOWS who is must die.

ya, well, that is messed up, the small amounts of evidence that control
people's fate, but doesn't mean that the death penalty as a whole is bad.
Just needs some fixing up.

I just decided you don't deserve to live because your Internet name
starts with an S.

A silly example, yes, but with that wording you were just asking for it.

killing someone else?

In the EU (European Union, currently 25 countries), there isn't *any*
country that applies the death penalty. In fact, it would be an
obstacle for any one trying to join the Union.

When the state kills the killer (hower horrific the crime is), it
degrades itself to the same level.
