You bet I'm for it. In my opinion, you'd have to be crazy NOT to be for it. I mean, you go out and kill somebody, or whatever, and then get proven guilty, and you get to live? What kind of justice is that? It costs more to house this killer per year than I make in two! Some justice, huh? And to total up $30,000/year for 30 years...that's $900,000. You give that guy 30 days to prove otherwise, and that's it. Get rid of the idiot, and you've saved $895,000. What have we got to lose there? Prisons would be smaller, it would be a deterrent, prison budgets would be smaller...hell yeah, I'm all for it.
I kill you for no real reason, I don't deserve another 30 seconds. You kill me for no reason, you've got 10 seconds before my wife blows your brains out.
Rapists get 2 weeks of Bubba in a jail cell, and it's off with him. Don't even tempt me to say more...you'll read a freakin' novel, I swear it.
