I know we'll never bring it back, but reading about the 2 people who tortured an 18 month year old toddler to death, it got me thinking about how there is absolutely no reason in allowing these two scumbags life (unless it's to suffer).
It's easy to take an academic approach on the death penalty, and say we've evolved since then. But these people will most likely be out in 20 years or so, funded to live, eat, housed, all by the taxpayer (they will never get employment). What possible argument is there for allowing such evil to live?
I would bury them alive personally.
