And, while I normally don't support capital punishment (to me 50 years of lost freedom in a crappy and hostile environment beats death
I do support capital punishment. As comedian Ron White put it, "In my state (Texas) we put in an "express lane.""
It will never be a 100% detterent. It's value is in removing a recurring danger to the world. True, there will be another bad guy like him somewhere else, hence, the express lane. I view criminals like him and others who have been executed as having given up their responsibility to their fellow man in their lust for power. I don't care about their motivations or hard childhood. When they start killing people for their own power, it is time to remove them from the "game."
