So let's break it down a bit. Would you agree he deserved death if he (the murderer) was convicted based on hard DNA evidence, admitted guilt and declared he could avoid the death penalty because he was under age?
IMHO, Folks who can't support the death penalty when justified suffer from the same brain warp that drives all liberals.
I'm sorry you feel that way, but I'm not a liberal by any stretch of the definition. I do have a moral problem with killing people except in self-defense and during military operations. I respect your position. Please respect mine.
