Last month's sniper slayings may have given a temporary boost to support for the death penalty, but long-term public opinion on the issue has remained relatively unchanged, experts on both sides of the debate say.

Seventy percent of Americans surveyed during the height of three weeks of sniper terror that riveted national attention said they support the death penalty, according to the Gallup Organization.

Typical Bravo Sierra from the left wing maggots of the Compost, living in the liberal hellhole inside the Beltway.

They did a survey of the maggots who work for them and called it a survey.

The Compost like the NY Slimes, LA Slimes and other left wing fishwraps can only publish left wing mantras and try to call them news.

After 9/11 and now the mass murders of the snipers, you can bet your boots, the real Americans about 70% support the Death Penalty.
