You do have a point.  I am just against both.  I have been against war since the Vietnam war as I have seen how the government just lies.  But I also have been against the death penalty especially after Inouye stated that when HI did have the death penalty, most of the people killed were Hawaiian and the rest were various other minorities.  He claimed that no white person was ever put to death but I think there was one.  Fact of the matter is it is never good when government starts killing.
