I expressed only how I arrived at my personal beliefs, i’m not expecting to build a national movement on them. I am certainly no less entitled to an opinion than those who want to bring scripture into the debate.
Nobody’s stopping you from expressing your opinion. But why express your opinion if not in an attempt to persuade and convince. I expressed my mine - with facts - not personal feelings. The death penalty is exercised in less than half of one percent of total homicides in a year. That is not a rampant call for 1st degree punishment.
As for the lack of intelligence on the part of jurors, I see it lead to letting murderers get off scot-free more than lead to more harsher punishments.
