Domestic Issues - Death Penalty

Our time on the earth is only a brief flicker, whether it ends now or later. Though many may deserve to die, we recognize we are not always right, even when we think we are, and vengeance is not justice. If we respect the sanctity of innocent life, we cannot kill whom we judge to be guilty. True judgment can only come from a power greater than any human being.

the editor's position

You may laugh or be for the death penalty or whatever, I just put this thing together to vent on issues after getting a useless philosophy degree and reading the Bible when I was broke and desperate. Personally I have found myself unable to get up here and be in favor of the death penalty under a Christian label. If you want to register the party and then vote to change this statement, that's your prerogative, but I'm not going to. Anyway, I would think that the money we would save by letting otherwise peaceful pot-smokers out of jail and refocusing police resources would be more than enough to handle life imprisonment expenses for a much smaller group of capital offenders.
