That's doubtful. It isn't really you that killed them, it's the American judicial system. There are many people who wouldn't have any qualms about ending the life of someone that they feel deserves to die.

You dont get it. What if you were to inject it? Watching them scream and pleading you to stop. And you had to do it. Would you be enjoying this? If you were, you are truely a heartless human being.

So you admit that some people do not mind. From what I can tell, you just agreed with me.

Me neither. Still people, just heartless. People. And by the way, I <3 you two, Cow and Meklar. Most interesting arguments I've seen in a while.

As I've said before, put them to death. It only costs more to execute them then to keep them because the government makes it that way; though it may seem immoral to take away the rights and increase the risk of the innocent getting killed, on the other hand people will be less likely to commit murder or such, less criminals will be able to escape or be released, possibly to kill again, and people will feel a tad safer, knowing there are less former murderers on the loose.

The issue of whether killing is legal or not was never disputed in the first place.

Your comment about the American judicial system killing people is sound...even if the executioner feels agony for injecting the needle, there's always the psychological excuse of "law" for them to fall back on...

It was whether or not the death penalty morally or ethically sound. It's lawfulness is already established and not in contest.

No, I don't believe in the death penalty. The death penalty is kind of like revenge to the murderer. "Thou shall not kill" can be followed by locking them up in a life sentence.

Yeah, because, like, everyone is worried about following the Bible. Whoops, news for you, two thirds of the world's population isn't even christian.
