I think it's more fair to kill a sociopathic murderer than to allow sociopaths to kill innocent people with little to no penalty. |
Life imprisonment isn't a major penalty? I think people take freedom for granted - imprisonment isn't really a walk in the park. |
Not nearly as major as being DEAD.
People in prison get visits from their families. The families of victims of murderonly get to visit a hole in the ground.
Seems to me the victim & their families are the ones truely being punished.
