Ya mean torturing and killing someone in front of young children and the general public is a good thing? This is what makes them think barbaric behavior of OK.
I am solidly for the death penalty but this is wrong regardless of who does it.
I think that none of the children who witnessed this tramatic event will get the counseling they need now and thus the cycle continues.

I think none of the children that were murdered by these fiends would find justice in your world.

I think part of the reason for capitial punishment is as a deterrent for others who might consider committing the same crime. In our society have tried to make it as nice and pleasant as possible and removed it from the public eye so that it has probably lost most of its deterrent value. On the other hand, it is very costly to keep a person on death row - in most cases probably more costly than life imprisonment.
Personally, I do think there are people who deserve to die for the crimes they have committed. However, practically speaking I am not sure that the death penalty is as effective and cost-effective as many might think.
