It is wrong. Murder by the state is still murder and is contrary to the Sixth Commandment. Killing the killer cannot restore life and will not bring closure to the living. Increasing numbers of families of murder victims, including many of those who lost loved ones in the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing incident, are voicing their opposition to the death penalty and are seeking restitution and reconciliation instead of death. Killing the unborn child cannot restore life and will not bring closure to the living.
Executions cause more families to grieve, creating more victims.
I am a citizen of the state. For the state to execute someone in my name makes me a killer. I am a citizen of the state. Increasing numbers of prison officials, those involved in the actual carrying out of executions, are experiencing stress disorders. It is unfair to turn our correctional facility professionals into hired killers.
