Ok.. you think it's morally wrong. Sure you do. well then answer my question. 
If you were given the chance to go back and kill Adolph Hitler before WWII began.. would you?

lol, which leads me to my point. I wouldn't have to kill Hitler to stop him from starting WWII. You see, the reason I don't condone the death penalty is because of the nature of that persons death. If someone was about to murder me or someone close to me then that person would be forcing my hand meaning I would be protecting myself. When someone on death row is as secluded as they are then what is the purpose of death row other than peace of mind? I'm not ignoring the possibilities of escape and I fullwell admit that the confinement that these men/women are put in could use some more security or methods in which escaping isn't even an option. These things, their life, is not something I'm willing to change my values for.

You can give me all the scenario's you want, I'm talking about moral standards on the practices of people who are no longer able to commit murder due to their confinement. What does Hitler have to do with this?
