Hopefully you never have to endure the pain of having one of these pieces of human garbage kill someone close to you. But f you do, please don’t complain too much. Because one of the purposes of capital punishment is to act as a deterrent to others.

Since you do not wish to have others so deterred, you are contributing to the problem, not part of the solution.

You are entitled to your beliefs. And I am entitled to mine.

Same for you my FRiend. But for the loved one's of the victim, vengeance will never take away the hurt. Only forgiveness will.

Because one of the purposes of capital punishment is to act as a deterrent to others.

Although that is a stated purpose, CP as a deterrent is not supported by incontrovertible evidence - ie. it's debatable.

contributing to the problem, not part of the solution

IMO, CP is more of a problem and does more damage than it is is a "solution."

You are entitled to your beliefs. And I am entitled to mine.

That's a good attitude.
