One of my primary reasons is Wrongful convictions[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_exonerated_death_row_inmates]<br /><br />But in a case as horrific & malicious as this, where an Innocent Child was murdered, HIS OWN SON, Yes I have to agree with 'an eye for an eye'. This was as calculated as me going to the grocery store with my shopping list in hand. Not only did he premeditate this, he Tried to get away with it. He Almost Did [http://www.kxan.com/dpp/mobile/man_charged_in_deaths_of_mother_child]. He fled to Texas & was witnessed as having been 'Happy, Carefree, and with no signs of remorse' in the weeks following the murders. So Yes, I believe this monster should be put to death for his crimes. But if he doesn't receive that sentence, I will have solace knowing that he'll never again experience the joy of freedom outside of prison walls.Sylvia Ortiz - Tanyas Auntnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742321392029290733.post-42220978429077405472012-07-09T16:16:22.199-05:002012-07-09T16:16:22.199-05:00Anon: if the only focus was on the [faulty?] conce...Anon: if the only focus was on the [faulty?] concept that Justice will come without a doubt from An Almightly, All Just God, and the only thing one wants is justice, that may be correct. <br />However, an additional focus is "What type of person [society] do I [we] want to be? So that, no matter how monstrous another thing is, i myself will not also be that monstrous.<br />When a child is mean and selfish, does the parent become mean and selfish in punishment? When a spouse cheats, does one cheat to get back or make things even? One must decide who one wants to become, and not let others force a reaction that is not leading to that place... <br />This requires a longer answer...Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06620064305992577670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742321392029290733.post-3310294143038934472012-07-08T23:11:13.196-05:002012-07-08T23:11:13.196-05:00If you dont believe in God there is no reason not ...If you dont believe in God there is no reason not to kill them, in cases where there is no doubt at all to guilt.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
