cygnus, popfodders, do you think there has ever been a case of someone being wrongly convicted and therefor executed ?
popfodders: surely, there has
so, let alone all other arguments mentioned before (morally, financially) how can you support capital punishment if you know that it has cost completely innocent people their life and will continue to do so ? Would like to know, if you were wrongfully convicted and about to be executed, how you would feel about it.
I am not talking about the troy davis case specifically as I do not have enough insight to how the decision was made. Maybe he did it, I have no idea.
I just oppose the idea of killing in general, including by the state.- because 99.9% of the time, the courts get it right, that's how I rationalize it, if you must know...popfodders
