I am of the opinion that if we're going to have a "death penalty," the punishment should truly match the crime. If you drown someone, we drown you. If you burn someone alive, we burn you alive. I don't think it should be considered "cruel and unusual punishment" when the crime was exactly that. Proponents of the death penalty claim it's all about "an eye for an eye." I say be true to the statement.

However, I'm generally against the death penalty.
