I'm not for any kind of argument that begins with emotional appeals.

Fair enough, I understand it's not written in the most objective manner, and I also acknowledge some arguments are a stretch.

I'm just asking you to look at the main arguments which have sources backing up his claims.

His sources are specious and his arguments are too emotional to be convincing. His assumption that the death penalty is a result of higher crime rates rather than the other way around is fallacious; it assumes causation because of correlation, which ignores dozens of intervening factors.
