My feelings on capital punishment extends from my belief that someone who knowingly, malicously, and without justification takes away the life that someone else had (and is, of course, sane), there's really no way I can believe that they in turn deserve to live out the rest of their days.

So if someone is malicous without cause to someone else, why would they deserve mercy if they're not remorseful? Add to that the fact that it occassionally feels damn good to get back at someone, and voila, revenge.
