I oppose the death penalty. Not because i have anything against giving killers a dose of their own medicine, heck if it were up to me i'd go back to public hangings and sell tickets, but rather because i don't want to see an innocent man or woman executed.

If it's prison for life (real life without parole, not the Euro "couple years and out" version) then at least if evidence comes to light that clears the person we're not pardoning a corpse. Once a person is executed the point becomes moot.
