It's not all that expensive, go down to walmart, spend some money on a gun and some bullets.
The only expensive part is because people with similar views as you make it as difficult as possible to sentence someone to death.
I mean I've never been to jail or prison, and I don't plan to, but if I did something to merit a life sentence, I think I just might take death.
Edit: Doesn't deter people from crime?
"Well gee Joe, if we get caught we might end up in prison."
-OR-
"Man I don't know Joe, we might get the death sentence for this"
