“Does spanking work?
“Have you ever seen a child touch a hot burner again?”
“Does Capital Punishment work?”
“Have you ever seen an executed killer murder again?”
Any state that does not have the basic understanding of true justice as to require the ultimate penalty for the ultimate crime is no state for moral men.
I can vote for the death penalty (if on a jury) on testimony of two witnesses to the event. But, I wouldn’t vote for the death penalty on the basis of deductions and conclusions from evidence. In that case, it would be life in prison.
BTTT! Well stated.
