I'm against it, for countless reasons.
It happens that innocent people are convicted, which means it is possible for innocent people to get executed for crimes they have not commited. They are murdered.
Now, some people are talking about revenge, eye for an eye. How will that work in this case? Shall we slay the judge? Kill the jury? They killed someone dear to me, and I want revenge!
I also think it's wrong to sentence people to death, no matter what crime they have commited. Murder is murder and no one has the right to decide who should or shouldn't die. Send them to rehab instead, do everything to change these people or atleast dig out the "source of evil" to use in preventive measures.
It may not be a popular opinion but I think that most criminals are themselves victims. People aren't born evil, they are made evil; and you are sort of taking their lives because they themselves were abused and without getting the help they needed ultimately became wicked.
