My opposition to the death penalty is based more on practicality. To me, there’s none of the circus and liberal media/celebrity crap involved with life in prison, and watching a scumbag die in a 5x7 cell when he’s old is more enjoyable. I would support the death penalty in extreme instances, such as serial killers and killers of law enforcement and children.
Ok, so my life isn't as valuable as a law enforcement officer or a child? All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others. Gotcha!
