How many innocent people are you willing to kill to sate your bloodlust?The US is slowly moving away from capital punishment. It is long overdue. Most of the civilized world is appalled by it
The majority of our states have either banned it or no longer use it. With the exception of the Bible Belt who insist on "eye for an eye" justice, Capital Punishment is extinct
Until people get sick of the assholes getting 3 hots and a cot, or begging for parole when in their 80's.
For States with people that still expect it as part of justice, they may decide to take justice in their own hands.
Here is my trade for no capital punishment. replace the Death penalty with having to break up a rock, 8 hours a day. then when broken you have to put it back together with crazy glue. when done, you get a new rock.
No work on rock, no food.
50-80 years of that would satisfy me enough to get rid of the death penalty. 50-80 years of 3 hots and a cot for someone who probably doesn't mind it doesn't work for some crimes.
It's called justice. sorry, but if someone kills 10-20 people in a spree 3 hots and a cot isn't enough.
