There is no doubt there are many cases of depraved fucks doing awful things. I shed no tears for their deaths. I don't like the state killing people though. Especially since the system is made of humans and therefore flawed.

Those parents for example... they knew their baby was in the swing, it's rotting body was stinking up the home for a week. That life was their responsibility.
They are guilty. There is no mistake. There is no doubt. There is no flaw.
They deserve to be executed... once convicted that is.

Which is ultimately the deciding factor for me. That, and Ol Sparky in Florida. When it didn't work right one time in the late 90s, some state legislator said, basically, "doesn't matter how we do it but the important thing is to keep killing people."
This isn't a responsibility we are equipped to have.

I still find it remarkable that you used to be a shade to the left of DSL; now I am a shade (or three) left of you.

But I find it interesting that two of the most progressive voices here have no reservations when handing great power to bureaucrats. If people are unequipped to handle executions, how are they better equipped to determine whether the plug should be pulled on a dying person? The ACA contained a provision for what has become known as "death panels" as a cost containment matter. What makes these functionaries of the State less susceptible to human error?
It also seems to me that if you are pro-life (as I am), you should avoid situational ethics and favor life in cases like the death penalty.

I'm against the death penalty, for the above reasons. I'm old enough to remember when DNA testing first came out and scores of persons on death row turned out to be innocent.

I think this is appropriate. Rarely is what's right most of the time right all of the time.
