Just in a clear state of mind, with no emotions tearing me apart I would not want anyone to die.
Call me a tree hugger or what ever you want, I just don’t think it makes you or anyone else any better than the person doing these crimes if you kill them out of passion. They did awful things, yes but you killing them is nothing but a revenge tactic and is done for self gratification. It allows you, or the family to feel they have gotten even, or that person has gotten when they deserve. But remember that even people who are “sick” have families and loved ones as well.
Just my opposition, but I don’t think anyone or any government has the right to sentence anyone to death. I know, I know I’ll hear it 20 times in a quick reply, “If someone killed my wife/sister/brother/whatever dam right I’d want them dead”. Of course you would, but if your wife/sister/brother/whatever killed someone would you want him dead? What if you believed them and no one else did?
I’d also like to hear from anyone else (besides me) who has been arrested for a felony, or has been under investigation to see how accurate detectives and police work actually is.
