I do not attack the right to punish, and any legal system will suffer miscarriages of justice from time to time. I attack the use of the death penalty because of the atrocity it clearly is. Better to release a man/woman wrongly convicted after 10 years, than to murder someone who might be innocent, or subject ANY human being to such inhumane treatment. Human beings are not dogs to be put down in order to satisfy a blood lust. Responding to barbarism with another act of barbarism is not the hallmark of an advanced and civilised society.
