We are mothers, friends, spouses, family.

This penalty is not given lightly, but when there is someone who for example kills again and again, or someone who brutally murders another person at gunpoint after making them beg for their life, or who rapes and then kills a little innocent child, I feel perfectly justified in exacting this level of punishment.

If they have said when someone else is to die by coldly murdering their victims, I have no problem telling them that our system of justice can say their days too are over. In fact, if I caught them in the act with my family they would sure never get as far as the courthouse.
