I answer every letter even if the writer is rapidly pro-death penalty.

I'm slowly pro-death penalty.

We used to have great death-penalty discussions. I always tried to frame the topic - Death Penalty: Should it Hurt? Sometimes I think condemned killers should die the average way they killed their victims.

"I'm slowly pro-death penalty. "

I'm pro-death penalty too. The unfortunate thing about the death penalty is that it takes too damn long to execute them. It postpones the justice that is due Laci, Connor and their family. Justice is supposed to be swift and just, but when you have an appeal process that allows convicted murderers to hang on for 15-18 years, it's far from swift and just. While Peterson sits on death row, he'll probably be getting visits from his family and friends, plus he'll probably be able to get mail, phone calls and packages. People that are against the death penalty forget that although these guys are incarcerated, it doesn't stop them from killing again, either other inmates or staff. They have nothing to lose. Keeping murderers alive in prison doesn't do anyone other than the killer any favors.

No, no, rapidly IS good. The quicker the better. If it was quicker, then the death penalty would be the deterrent it was meant to be. As it stands now, with monsters on death row for 20 years, it has lost its meaning.
