Whoa, complicated topic!

Who exactly the Death Penalty punishes and how. It's not just the convicted.

The heaviest consequences come from the most final acts. There is also the matter of redemption and how arbritarily someone is put outside of it's possiblity on this mortal coil.

But a Jane's Addiction song lyric about Ted Bundy always strikes a cord in me: ...Some people should die, that's just unconscious knowledge...

Like that fellow this week in Florida, convicted of taking that little girl behind a car wash and was caught on tape.

Why should he get to eat, breath, whack-off, and crap until he dies of old age in the isolation ward, while that little girl won't ever grow up and her last moments were spent getting degraded by that bastard. The evidence is clear and solid from the video to the DNA. Considering the nature of his crime and being able to bear witness to part of it makes me feel like Give me a rope and I'll string em up myself right now!!!

It's most definitely a "brain against the mind" type of topic.
