(and that, of course means leaving the real killers out of prison on the streets with a crime wrongly closed by wrongful execution) <BR/>So how many innocent people were killed before DNA testing? So reasuring for victims' relatives that the person they saw being fried to death may well not have been the real killer. I can see no argument for execution, but plenty against.<BR/><BR/>Have you noticed that some of the pro-execution people are not relaxed individuals? They seem angry, and aggressive, in their decisions and support of the death penalty. Fine to be angry and aggressive !! But should law be dictated to and created by "The Angry"? And doesn't it matter that 122 people recently were about to be executed and they were in fact INNOCENT? A person can be exonerated and released from prison, but I may be wrong, but I haven't yet heard of any innocent executees being brought back from the dead.... No problem dealing with angry feelings. I've had plenty of my own with the murder of my brother. But should not a state be above that, particularly when the State in question's justice system is such a MESS !!??<BR/>122 about-to-be-murdered inmates says so.johnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07732685907482691660noreply@blogger.com
