Re: Why I Used to Support the Death Penalty and Why I No Longer Do
I'm sympathetic to this thread's argument regarding the threat of the death penalty as a coercive tactic. But I continue to be a death penalty proponent. While in college I was briefly against the death penalty. My rationale was the potential killing of an innocent. Then I got over it. As they say in Hollywood: some people just need killing (Bundy, Gacy, etc).
