I would have to agree with sirenofthestorm though. An acceptable alternative would be to give them life sentences with no parole. This way, to me, would be more punishable than death, and cheaper for the tax payers as well. I know the prisons are overrun as it is, but it costs tons of money to execute people and it would actually be cheaper to keep them alive. I don't believe in suffering, and yes, these people are bad and they have caused NUMEROUS amounts of suffering, but that doesn't give us the right to cause them suffering. Back to the whole eye for an eye thing. And yes, I want my family to be safe, but there are alternatives. You don't have to go around killing everyone to feel safe, it's barbaric.
