I doubt those that lost loved ones in the 9/11 tragedy, would be quite so forgiving
but onto Jelsters point, I too believe their is a financial reason for the death penalty, wether it be right or wrong ? I cannot say.
but there has to be a finite line drawn somewhere. as society releases more and more people that re offend (and a lot of them do)? the do gooder state is ensuring it is less safe for law abiding people.
i think it's time that penalties were reviewed (made harsher is my opinion ) there needs to be a deterent for crime.
the way we are heading it will be all out anarchy in 30 or so years time
A bit of the mad max world :P
