Boy - jumping on the anti- Death Penalty side awfully quickly, aren't you?

I was already on that side of the death penalty issue. I did jump to conclusions though on the article by not reading it throughly. Not really sure of the circumstances in this case.

My view on the death penalty is that it does not give society a chance to correct a mistake should someone be wrongfully charged. I weigh this as more important than any belief that someone committing a horrendous crime should be executed. I'd rather they spend the rest of their life in jail than take the chance an innocent person would be put to death.

An average of 15-20 years of appeals and court reviews don't give society a chance to correct a mistake?
