The death sentence is among other things, an exercise in futility. It solves nothing, it heals nothing, it satisfies vengeance which many confuse for justice, it reconciles nothing, is irreversible, and is unjust. We are in a very small minority here but we are in agreement.

Well God bless you Greybeard. What is right is not often popular and depending on how innovative your idea is, it may threaten the status quo and the conventional wisdom of the day, which can make people very angry because you’ve challenged their mental and philosophical comfort zone. Historically it has even lead to death.
Mind if I add you to a list of those I sometimes copy on certain discussions and points of view that tend to be innovative?

A death sentence is not to be taken lightly. But it has it’s place. In some cases, it is the only just verdict. Take Tsarnaev for instance. What does justice cry out for here in your opinion?
