The point of capital punishment is not justice. It is to “heal” the sovereignty of the state, which it deems to have been injured by behavior outside of it’s control. First it’s criminals killing innocent people, then what’s next? The populace killing their oppressors? Honestly the same can be said about the politics surrounding abortion. They don’t care that a pregnancy is terminated, they care that they had no say. The state are to be the only one’s with the power to grant life or death. This is how you reconcile the logical inconsistency of the pro-life people being the same as the pro capital punishment people people. It’s all about the sovereignty of the state. This, incidentally, is also the motivation behind Please Hangseth’s attempt to reestablish public execution.
