It doesn't hit close to home for most of you, but if you give honest consideration to some often overlooked things, you might see this differently.

and if it were your mother or father or child that was brutally murdered would you feel the same? If you trully knew how they were killed and saw the pictures, knowing they suffered for maybe minutes/hours or days, if they were tortured to death, mutilated, strangled. If my family member was the cause of someone elses death and torture yes I would agree to their execution. I firmly believe they do not need to exist in this society. I am glad I live in Texas where the death penalty is alive and well! BTW a rapist was allowed out of jail -he then proceeded to rape and murder a child here in Austin and guess what he is getting out again-how many more does he have to rape and kill?
