The death penalty does not deter crime, it does add significan¬tly to prison costs through the expensive appeals process, and often --- due to the seriously flawed judicial system --- convict innocent victims. Even one innocent death is too much. They don't even follow their much touted Bible-base¬d principles¬. The death penalty could only be imposed by the testimony of TWO EYEWITNESS¬ES. Circumstan¬tial evidence was not the basis. So, as usual, the GOP is on the wrong side of moral ethics on this one.Atlanta Roofinghttp://tiny.cc/yzwq2noreply@blogger.com
