The death penalty as espoused by you is a reactionary and barbaric form of revenge, not justice.
I'm against the death penalty, not because it's unjust, but because as it's currently impelemented here, it takes decades to kill anyone. There are way too many humans on Earth, so the death penalty could be a good thing.

My death penalty would have the judge pull a pistol after sentencing and shoot the convicted in the head. Done and done. The jury would see the result of their verdict. Televise verdict "execution" nationwide. America would see us executing mostly black men.
