Letter to the I: Letter Against the Death Penalty


It is a shame that when Susan Sussman advocated the reinstatement of the death penalty, she felt the need to insult those like myself who disagree with her.  To paraphrase Thatcher; those who use personal insults usually do not have effective political arguments.  Practically speaking there are many countries around the world that have the death penalty and still have terrorism.  Furthermore, what sense does it make to deliver more martyrs to a cause that worships them?  If Susan is so keen to go ahead anyway, I vote for her to have the courage to look the condemned person's loved ones in the eye and still pull the lever herself.
