There's really no need for the condescending question. I just don't feel that the chance of an innocent person being executed justifies labeling capital punishment a failure. That being said, I am anti-death penalty as I feel it takes away society's moral high ground when it essentially stoops to
eye for an eye "justice".
In addition to that, I feel that by being in favour of capital punishment, you allow those that perpetrate heinous crimes to imprint their sadistic nature upon you. As a law abiding citizen, I take no pleasure in the death and suffering of another person, so why would I want to allow some murdering scum the ability to change that?
