I hate to say it, but a lot of the stuff that people are sentanced to death for doesn't belong in civilised society either.

Granted there are a lot of faults in the way that the death penalty is applied in the US, but at the same time there are crimes that are deserving of the death penalty. --Tim McVeigh being a good example.

I don't see it as a 'penalty' per se, but rather as garbage disposal. --Humaninty would truly be better off without some people.
