That is incorrect.
Removing the threat is reason enough for the death penalty. It reduces the chances that the individual will kill again to zero.
In addition, the Death Penalty, if consistently enforced, serves as a deterrant to other potential criminals.
Revenge is for children and the emotionally retarded. |
Perhaps you can clarify a couple of things here.
First, why is revenge for the "emotionally retarded," so called?
Second, what is the difference between "removing the threat" and revenge?
