I’d love to see the day when every adult who opposes the death penalty will have someone who’s important to them brutally,wantonly,murdered.

Indeed.

Grimmett pleaded guilty in 2017 to shooting another man with a shotgun. He received a 10-year suspended sentence.

A lot of people worry excessively about the death penalty because an innocent person might get executed.

1) Extremely rare. In the US you really have to struggle to come up with an incident where this happened.
2) How many murderers go on to kill people while they are in prison? Quite a few.
3) How many murderers don't go to prison and go on to kill innocent people? Quite a few.

You want to avoid needless deaths of innocent people? Use the death penalty a lot more frequently.

That's going a bit far, IMO. However, I would not mind seeing something like that happen to those jurors who acquitted the black man who murdered a man to steal his vehicle. He even admitted to doing it. It would strike me as fairly hilarious if each one of them got killed by the dude in the same manner.
