ORIGINAL: juliaoceania I am against the death penalty completely. It is state sponsored murder, period. And unfortunately we are one of those barbarous people who commit state sponsored murder which leads to such comparisons with a country like Iran But how can you be against it, Julia? Surely, the existence of the death penalty in the USA is what has kept crime - especially violent crime - so low in that wonderfully peaceful nation? Indeed, it must be due to the existence of the death penalty that Americans have developed such a strong antipathy towards all things violent - including the ownership of guns. It was surely this sort of beatific outcome that God had in mind when He included, in His Ten Commandments, "Thou shalt not kill, unless Thou art the State". Verily, is it not known by all that Jesus packed a magnum?
