re: Pope calls for abolition of death penalty

quote:

Death penalty is an appropriate and just punishment for the ultimate and most unforgivable crime there is. If you take a life with evil intent, you deserve to lose yours in return.

I agree 100%! It is a select certain few who get the death penalty as well and with DNA evidence underlying things now, there is little to argue in most all cases. I simply don't understand the hubris one would have to think they can go out and end someone else's life and not have the same punishment enacted upon them in a much more humane manner with an opportunity to defend themselves in the legal system to boot. Some sub-human acting bastards simply get what is coming to them via the death penalty.
