There are very, very, VERY few on death row who are innocent and the amount of innocent people in prison is about 1 our 2 percent.

The death penalty isnt about justice and it damn sure isnt about retribution. It is about protection. If all of Gods life is precious, you have a decision to make. Kill this individual or let them kill or harm lots of other individuals. If you can prevent it, and do not, you ill but committed the crime yourself. Their murder and rape victims could have been saved, had you stopped him, but you chose to let them be murdered instead. If in the world where a life is a 1:1 value, is not the innocent the one you should save? But we arent talking about 1:1. By forgoing the death penalty we are saying this persons life is worth all 12 or 40 of their victims. 40:1, if all life is equally precious, seems like a on brainer.

Multiple Murder is the only crime punished by the death penalty in the modern world. How is this even a discussion?
