    for it, but in very, very, very few cases.
    but im also in support of special "eye for eye" cases. like a sniper who was caught should be thrown in jail. but then a prison guard should be given a sniper rifle with orders to kill him. but- he can do it wherever and whenever he wants, when the criminal isnt expecting it. this way he will be just like his victims- he wont expect it.
    but in cases like stabbing/shooting deaths, i wouldnt do that.
    only for the really horrific crimes.

    8th amendment anyone?

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
