Personally, I can, as an alternative to capital punishment, live with a sentence of life with no chance of parole which, to me, would be a perfectly-adequate substitute. The main reason that I hold on to the death penalty is because the Left never understands the meaning of the term "life imprisonment," so they essentially force their opponents' hands toward the extreme position of the death-penalty as the maximum punishment. Now, given that this person fully-suffered a botched execution, I would not be opposed, in this particular case, to a natural life sentence instead.

I think life in prison is way to expensive, with free health care, TV, library, work out rooms etc. We should get an Island up in Alaska, put a big wall around it, put the lifers in there and let them figure out how to survive. We could dump our garbage there. they would have to generate their own power with stationary bikes, and grow their own food etc.
