Yes, let's go back there. The world would be a better place if everyone carried guns.
I'm against the death penalty for three reasons.
1) He could be innocent. The chance of him being innocent is always present.
2) It could be considered an "easy" way out, for him. I think a lot of people would pick death over being gangbanged for life in a prison.
3) The moral questions: Who are we to take a life? Is it right to kill someone just because they're bad? Etc.
The only argument I can see for the death penalty is the money we potentially save on not holding him alive. However, as someone already stated, finally killing him - through the legal process - costs a lot of money too.
