I think it's because the police HAVE to confront these scumbags on a regular basis - the rest of us have the option to run away if we can.
Anyway there is never going to be a return to capital punishment and we will have to reconcile ourselves to the fact that we will have to fork out to keep murderers in jail in humane conditions for life or for as long as the judges and parole board see fit.
If you can change it - change it, if you can't - then stop worrying about it?
