remorse doesn't change his actions
the death penalty is not an act of revenge but a penalty appropriate for certain crimes. there are certain tiers of crimes. someone who brutally rapes another, as terrible as that is, should not get the same punishment (life in prison vs. death) as someone who blows up tons of people and damages who knows how many families minds and sense of peace
hopefully the death penalty deters others from committing crimes like this, and regardless of it does we can be certain that it doesn't ENCOURAGE said actions
we can't just house every insanely evil person and feed and clothe them. what example is that setting? also I feel as if that sort of mindset (never executing extreme evil doers) is not balanced. I think there needs to be some degree of balance in the world. not out revenge, but out of fairness.
if you murder a score of people for absolutely no reason it's pretty clear that you are not going to give back or add anything to society in the future. why should society house a member who is destructive and gives nothing back? its simple logic
