I'm all for the death penalty (look at my first post about Richard Farley). However, there is a clear distinction between a person who is crazy and a cold-blooded murderer.

I don't think crazy people should get the death penalty, just like I don't think mentally retarded people should either.

No way. Someone who kills five children needs to die. Needs to be tried and executed. Why is this so difficult for you to understand?

Andrea Yates. Why are you in awe of her?

LOL  That sounds like affirmative action. You kill five children and you have forfeited your life.

That's stupid and ridiculous. So plain old murderers should get the death penalty but not the ones who are crazy? Your mercy is stupid and misplaced.
