Death Penalty Controversy

I agree with Father Wood. There is no civilized justification for an execution.

Society has the right and duty to protect its members but, based on the preponderance of evidence, executions are not a means to that end. Rather, they are no different from cold-blooded, premeditated murder.

Ironically, executions are meted out on individuals at a time when, by virtue of their maximum security incarceration, these individuals have been rendered completely harmless to society.
