Also, why do you think the government should be able to kill people outisde of prison, but not inside of prison?
Do you think Obama and McCain were incorrect in 2008 when both called for the death penalty for a child rapist whose crime was so brutal that the under 10-year old had to have reconstructive surgery? You clearly believe that the government is morally justified in sanctioning or perpetrating the killing of human beings outside of prison. Why does your moral standard shift when a child killer or child rapist faced execution? Really weird. I totally get the pacifists who oppose all killing, but you're far from a pacifist, not only defending the right of the state to kill human beings in the context of war, but this board's biggest abortion cheerleader. All that, but executing child killers just goes too far? Really?
