It's very rare that a murderer kills again after being convicted, regardless of the specific penalty. I'm all for keeping violent criminals out of the general population, it's just that the death penalty does not deter other criminals (who seldom think before they act) and diminishes the concept that there is something wrong with killing. It's an outdated concept that has been rejected by the more civilized world.
