It goes back to how much value you put into one's life.. between different people it fluctuates. Same thing with a fetus or an animal. I'm just not seein the line between a 'cold-blooded' murder and capital punishment. They're both fueled on mostly lofty sentiment rather than reason. I just don't see it

hmm.. is it ethical that mostly the poor and black are being put to death? After examining the past, as well as the present, do you really trust this system enough to go on a lethal vendetta?

'Not merely a concrete test of the underlying principles of the great republic is the Negro Problem, and the spiritual striving of the freedmen's sons is the travail of souls whose burden is almost beyond the measure of their strength, but the name of this land of their fathers' fathers, and in the name of human opportunity'-- W.E.B. Du Bois
