You make a great argument using the perspective of mercy that way. <em>Mary's last blog post..<a href='http://homesteepedhope.com/2008/02/28/real-life-homeschooling/'>Real Life Homeschooling</a></em> I, too, am in favor of the death penalty.

Great post. I am a supporter of Capital Punishment. I think there are too many inmates living on our tax dollars, and it should be spent somewhere else. Death by injection or however, is merciful, compared to what you had said about spending life in solitary confinement. I believe it would drive a person mad. And would we really want to risk an escape or parole of someone who is mentally incapacitated? No. Charles Manson should have been executed a long time ago. Look at the media attention this psychopath has? The families victims are still suffering. Wow! Great post.
