Btw, realistically there probably isn't an afterlife. So shouldn't such people do the time in prison instead, to contemplate the results of their actions? The state thinking it's right to kill people who've killed people... that doesn't make much sense logically.

Michael Portillo did a very good programme about capital punishment, it's called 'how to kill a human being'. I thoroughly recommend it, it'll be on youtube somewhere. And he's a right-wing ex-MP, not some 'bleeding heart liberal' as I believe you Americans put it.


Put yourself in the position of a father/mother who observes their child blown to bits in front of their very eyes. You have a gun in your hand and the killer in front of you. You walk away smiling. Does that make sense logically?
