Um, that is not the whole of my argument and not the only reason I believe that those that show themselves to be a danger must be removed completely.

Many lawmakers use tax dollars to travel on private planes
See - THAT is a REAL injustice. That is way more despicable than paying money to spare a brutal criminal's life.

It's still a tough one. I've interviewed many of the accused family members. And I will say that many of them were very sincere, wonderful individuals. I can't imagine having to say to them, "sorry, we are going to kill your child".

That's not the subject.

It is an injustice amongst many. But do you honestly think a government could remain afloat in a capitalistic set up paying for the things you propose tacking onto the budget?

Yea, as I said, the solution sucks......... But so does reality a good part of the time.

Believe me, I would be out there trying to kill that person.
So what does that make me? Human, I suppose.

Sure it is. The topic is about why the death penalty is bad and will be used against us if we vote to expand it.
People who believe it is necessary for justice need to look at the injustices of the system and if they support the DP because of the taxpayers, the far greater injustices that our tax money funds.

Unfortunately, humans are tribal.
Firstly, they protect their family; secondly they protect their tribe, but they are too dumb to protect their race.
Humans may be brilliant at some things, but they are so dumb that they have not realised that if you do not protect your own race, the whole race is wiped out.
This is a simple equation that young children could understand.
I am off topic here, but then again, maybe I am on topic.

I think it should be somewhat expanded and somewhat contracted. More readily used but with the stipulation that the evidence is irrefutable, for a somewhat weak example the person was caught at the scene with weapon in hand as he or she was doing it by multiple people.

Which is why I say only in cases in which the evidence is irrefutable. There are such cases.
