Shoot other humans to keep costs down.

And this attitude is better than the murderers themselves how?

There are innocents all over the world dying, I'm not going to spend any time worrying about someone who virtually tortured a man to death because he was a different colour.

Planning to kill another person in advance and then carrying it out is murder, is it not? Confusing bloodlust for justice doesn't justify murdering a murderer.

It's utterly hypocritical to support state sanctioned murder.

It''s not about the killer, it's about the death penalty and making out that people who disagree with the death penalty are somehow sympathetic to the killer is just a gross tactic for people who lack the capacity to come up with a sound argument.

You always see a person's true colours when you see how they'd treat people who are meant to be lesser than themselves.

You won't keep costs down by shooting people, bullets are expensive.

Death penalty is the easy way out. Make them suffer behind bars for the rest of their life.

So? It's the death penalty I'm discussing. Explaining it is the death penalty doesn't change it.

It's "legal" in certain corners of the world to kill gays as punishment for their sexual orientation.

Are we not allowed to disagree with barbaric laws?

Humans killing humans should never be legal.

You made the claim, you explain it.

You insist everybody else must explain themselves ten-fold, provide links, sources, statistics, pictures but you never do so yourself.

Tell us who doesn't suffer. You've obviously done your research here lad.

[Marsh.]

Yup. Unsubstantiated claims without evidence, as usual.

It's true. People will nearly always do the right thing when it matters but they'll feel less inclined to hide their true colours when presented with an opportunity to do so without feeling like they are being judged.
