I'm against the death penalty.
I'm generally against all forms of violence, and state-sanctioned violence is no exception.
I don't believe there is such thing as a humane way to take a life or that there is such thing as "lawful murder."
At least the guy won't be hanged, drawn, and quartered in public.
