my political leanings have changed my views on the death penalty. If I can't trust the govt. to run healthcare, I can't trust them to kill american citizens judiciously.
Well, capital cases are always jury trials, no?

I thought about that, but it's the same conceptually in that the "government" is made up by humans, voted into power by humans, and their rules enforced by humans. same with a jury, the same juries that let OJ and Casey Anthony walk.

Not if the defendant waives his right to a jury trial. Speaking of which how would you like to put your life in the hands of 12 people that are too stupid to find a way out of jury duty?

Its not just the jury that's in play here. You have over zealous DA's, corrupt police, lazy judges. I have always been opposed to the death penalty.
