Who are we to judge who is evil or not? WHO ARE YOU TO EXECUTE SOMEONE. The poper authorities are bullshit...the proper authorities are frikin ran by george w. And god isn't telling us what to do...he gave us free will. If he thinks that someone should be punished he'll do it himself. God will do as he sees fit...other than that we have no more right to kill a murderer than he has to kill an innocent man. What difference does it make if he lives in prison (where he is harmless to the outside world) or if he's dead (where he is obviously harmless) In fact by leaving him alive you are simply showing him forgiveness...a virtue of the christian god himself. The proper authorities are also WHACK. So you got a frikin law degree...that don't give you the right to execute someone. Jury by peers is also bullshit....these people judgin you aint your peers...they aint ever known you. Also I don't know if uve hurd but nowdays they can set up martial law for you if you're even SUSPECTED terrorist. The last thing that sets me off about the death penalty is what if you're innocent. WHAT IF YOU'RE SON OR DAUGHTER WAS AT THE WRONG PLACE AT THE WRONG TIME. Wouldn't you want them to have a chance to live. Inoccents are murdered in tha row...there aint no doubtin it so that completely ticks me off and I refuse to believe that we are bringing justice by Murder. For those of you that are christian christ never believed in an eye for an eye. And how are you going to say that god set up stoning. You know as well as me that is cruel and unjust punishment. That is just bs if you're gonna tell me that...how are you gonna believe somethin like that man. I mean have your beliefs and all but don't be blind to other possibilities.
