    Execution is to keep the person away from the rest of everyone else permanently. Your straw man reasons are hilarious tho.

      Life imprisonment does exactly the same thing, is cheaper, and doesn’t run the risk of potentially killing an innocent person

      To date, 21 people have been exonerated off death row by DNA evidence. The acceptable number of innocent people executed is 0.

      Execution is not preventative of the same person reoffending any more than imprisonment is.

      You may have missed that part.

      We didn’t execute the prisoners on Guantanamo, supposedly the most dangerous terrorists in the world.

      But we have to execute domestic criminals?
