Ain't stopped me posting either. I can't think of one good, solid argument for capital punishment Starting with: "Capital pusnisment is a deterrent", they are all BS.
You'll notice the post with the link I gave is edited.

I inadvertently posted the wrong link, after searching for a site that reported the case fairly.

I idiotically posted a link to the Daily Mail, who argued Troy Davis was a reason why we should have capital punishment.

The Daily Mail surmised that 'Capital punishment is punishment for grown up societies -- not cowering in the face of the mass injustice of murder.'

I won't link the story.

I find it too shaming.
